Lyrics:
碧々とした　夜空の下で
aoao to shita yozora no shita de
under the lush green, night sky

あなたが見てた　後ろ恋姿
anata ga miteta ushiro koi sugata
you gazed upon the rear silhouette of your love


時折見せる　無邪気な寝顔
tokiori miseru mujaki na negao
sometimes, you show your innocent, sleeping face

あたしが見てた　恋しい姿
atashi ga miteta koishii sugata
and I gaze at that beloved sight


どんなひとときもすべて
donna hitotoki mo subete
no matter the moment,

忘れないように
wasurenai you ni
I can't forget it all

夢中でシャッター切るあたしの心は
muchuu de shattaa kiru atashi no kokoro wa
and as if in a trance, the shutter had clicked

切ない幸せだった
setsunai shiawase datta
and (captured) my heart in a sense of painful bliss


「ただ、君を愛してる」
tada kimi wo aishiteru
I still love you

「ただ、君を愛してる」
tada kimi wo aishiteru
I still love you

「ただ、君を愛してる」
tada kimi wo aishiteru
I still love you

ただそれだけでよかったのに
tada sore dake de yokatta noni
and certainly, with only that, I'm glad


雨降る時の　交わしたキスは
ame furu toki no kawashita kisu wa
the moment in the falling rain, our lips entwined

つながれてゆく　2人の姿
tsunagarete yuku futari no sugata
our two silhouettes connected


一生にもうないこのキモチ
isshou ni mou nai kono kimochi
this feeling won't last my whole life

うまく言えないけど
umaku ienai kedo
and although I can't say it properly

あなたに出会ってあたしの毎日は
anata ni deatte atashi no mainichi wa
having happened to meet you, my everyday

キラキラと輝いたよ
kirakira to kagayaita yo
has sparkled and shone


「ただ、君を愛してる」
tada kimi wo aishiteru
I still love you

「ただ、君を愛してる」
tada kimi wo aishiteru
I still love you

「ただ、君を愛してる」
tada kimi wo aishiteru
I still love you

あなたがくれた幸せよ
anata ga kureta shiawase yo
you gave me happiness


「ただ、君を愛してる」
tada kimi wo aishiteru
I still love you

「ただ、君を愛してる」
tada kimi wo aishiteru
I still love you

「ただ、君を愛してる」
tada kimi wo aishiteru
I still love you

ただそれだけでよかったのに
tada sore dake de yokatta no ni
and certainly, with only that, I'm glad


小さな部屋に飾られている
chiisana heya ni kazararete iru
in this small room, two smiling faces are displayed

2人の笑顔　恋愛写真
futari no egao renai shashin
a photograph of love

Translation Notes:
"Renai Shashin" is probably most accurately translated into "photograph of romance" instead of "photograph of love." However, "photograph of love" seems to be the most common translation for this song on the web. I don't really want to go against the masses here...
