Quick meaning
A fast read before the full lyric
A Japanese track where memories spin like a lonely carousel.
What sticks is how the carousel image holds both the repetition of memory and its fragile, almost decorative beauty.
'Hakanai unmei futari hikisaita', 'we tore our fleeting fate', lands like a quiet admission that some breaks are clean, even if the remembering isn't.
Editor's note
2PM's Merry-go-round circles a lost love
A Japanese track where memories spin like a lonely carousel.
Kitto kimi mo onaji sa / Koi wo shite mo boku ni kaeru sa
What sticks is how the carousel image holds both the repetition of memory and its fragile, almost decorative beauty. 'Hakanai unmei futari hikisaita', 'we tore our fleeting fate', lands like a quiet admission that some breaks are clean, even if the remembering isn't.
The phrase 'Like a merry-go-round' does the heavy lifting. It's not just a simile for going in circles; it's that specific, slightly childish ride, spinning with a fixed, lonely rhythm.
He's telling himself she feels the same, that even if she loves someone new, she'll return to him. It's less hope than a stubborn daydream, the kind you repeat until it almost feels true.
The way 'Flash back!' cuts in, abrupt and capitalized, gives the memory a jolt before the melody sweeps it back into the spin.

Kitto kimi wa ko nai sa
Akiramete wa matteru boku sa
Futari shokuji wo shitari
Fuku wo erabi… eiga wo mitari…
Machijuu kimi no omoide ga ippai
Kasaneta kazu dake no
Namida ga mou afurete shimau
Flash back!
Sugoshi ta hibi
Kioku no na ka warau kimi
Toki ga tatte mo
Nani hitotsu iroasenai
Onaji sora no mashita
Mawari tsuzukeru kodoku na mokuba
Please come back!
Doushite boku ja nai no?
Doko de surechigatta no?
Like a merry-go-round
Like a merry-go-round
Nikunde ai wo shinjite
Guruguru mawaru omoi
Like a merry-go-round
Like a merry-go-round
Kitto kimi mo onaji sa
Koi wo shite mo boku ni kaeru sa
Kono yo de ichiban kimi wo aishiteiru
Kono mune ni modotte
Omoide wo mata tsukureba ii
Feel me
Imasara kizuitanda
Kimi no taisetsu sa
I’m sorry motto sunao ni
Nareba yokatta
Still I love you
Wazuka demo sora ni inori
Kibou no niji wo kakeru
Yurushitte kuyaminaite
Mata kimi wo sagashiteru
Like a merry-go-round
Like a merry-go-round
Mabushii sono egao ga
Boku wo hikimodosu no sa
Like a merry-go-round
Like a merry-go-round
Hakanai unmei futari hikisaita
Namida misezu ni satta
Kimi no yasashi sa
Ima nara wakaru yo
Honto no ai no imi
Mata aeru nara
Isshou kakete mamoritai
Doushite boku ja nai no?
Doko de surechigatta no?
Like a merry-go-round
Like a merry-go-round
Tsunaide te no nukumori
Mada koko ni aru zutto
Like a merry-go-round
