Precisely because I love you, I wish for your happiness, and keep pretending to be someone I’m not while holding on to an unfulfilled longing.

This work delicately portrays the bittersweet feelings of unrequited love, powerfully expressing the painful gap between ideals and reality in romance.

The beautiful words repeated in the chorus symbolize a complex tangle of emotions—respect for the other person and a yearning that refuses to fade.

The wish of “If only we had met in a different timeline” is heartbreaking yet deeply moving.

Released to the world in May 2019 as the theme song for the film The Confidence Man JP: The Movie, this track became the fastest ever to surpass 100 million streams on the Billboard Japan streaming chart, leaving a significant mark on the Japanese music scene.

It’s a song I especially want those struggling with unrequited love, or those who can empathize with wishing happiness for someone dear, to hear.
