いつもより少し広い部屋ただ一人
It’s over, guess it’s over
二人で創り上げた Story も虚しく
こんなに簡単に崩れてしまうなんて

One mistake, got a one regret
「誰も完璧じゃない」って
そう言い聞かせてみても
何をしても傷は癒せなくて

[ジェ/] 今 Time machine に乗り込んで
あなたに会いに行く ことが出来たなら
[/] もう何も願わない
儚くて遠い記憶になる前に

I need a time machine oh
I need a time machine oh

一人で過ごす時間は遅すぎて
過ちの罰はあまりにも重く
あなたが最後に残した Words
今でもずっとリフレイン止まらない
まだ胸が痛む

Just one mistake, just one regret
わがままも今は愛しくて

[/] 今 Time machine に乗り込んで
あなたに会いに行く ことが出来たなら
[ジェ/] もう何も願わない
儚くて遠い記憶になる前に

I need a time machine

時空飛び越えてあなたに合えたら
[/] たとえ同じ
[ヒョ/] 結末迎えたとしてもきっと
[ティ/] 悔いは残らないはずだから

[ヒョ/] 今 Time machine に乗り込んで
あなたに会いに行く ことが出来たなら
[ジェ/] もう何も願わない
儚くて遠い記憶になる前に
Yeah 二人の想い出忘れてしまう前に

Gimme a time machine
Oh, gimme a time machine
Oh, gimme a time machine

Alone in the room that is more spacious than usual
It’s over, guess it’s over
The story created by the two of us was also in vain
I can’t believe it could crumble so easily

One mistake, got a one regret
“Nobody is perfect”
Even if I try to say and hear it
The pain won’t heal no matter what

Right now, if I could ride a time machine
And go to meet you
I wouldn’t wish for anything else
Before the memories become distant and fleeting

I need a time machine oh
I need a time machine oh

Time slows to a crawl when I’m by myself
The punishment for my mistake is severe
The last words that you left behind
Even now, I can’t stop [re-playing] the refrain
My heart still hurts

Just one mistake, just one regret
Even now, I still love you selfishly

Right now, if I could ride a time machine
And go to meet you
I wouldn’t wish for anything else
Before the memories become distant and fleeting

I need a time machine

If I’m able to meet you passing through time and space
Even if it’s heading to the same
Conclusion, I’m sure
There won’t be any regrets remaining

Right now, if I could ride a time machine
And go to meet you
I wouldn’t wish for anything else
Before the memories become distant and fleeting
Yeah, before the memories of us are forgotten

Gimme a time machine
Oh, gimme a time machine
Oh, gimme a time machine

  1. “ima Time Machine ni norikon de” in the first chorus is [jessica/all], in the second it’s [sooyoung/all] and the third it’s [hyoyeon/all]
    “mou nanimo negawanai” in the first chorus is [sooyoung/all], and in the second and third it’s [jessica/all]
    “tatoe onaji” in the bridge is [taeyeon/yoona]

    1. Thank you I have seen that already, but I’m not changing it yet if you don’t mind.
      I find it really weird that Sooyoung has no lines and I’m possibly waiting for more videos.

      1. That is true, is weird that Sooyoung has no lines and the rest do, but there are some songs that it is Yoona who has no lines and the rest do, so I don’t think is that weird, for Sooyoung not to have lines in this song. Although I agree, we should wait at least for one more live.

  2. i’m sorry but what? that doesn’t make any sence. something happened for sure. in the fancam it looks like she forgot to sing…i really hope she has lines because i know she does. maybe it’s her and taeyeon but they decided to give it to Yoona for the live peformance, it wouldn’t surprise me. cause honestly, i hear Sooyoung’s voice pretty well.. and also in the chorus. she has those two lines in the chorus but they changed it to all for the live performance. this is ridiculous. Jessica and Hyoyeon also have lines in the chorus.

  3. ok, so I have seen a lot of lives of time machine and in any of them Sooyoung sings “tatoe onaji” with Yoona, is Taeyeon who sing that line with her, so I see no point in putting Sooyoung there, I know it sucks, and is REALLY weird that she doesn´t has one, but you can’t make one appear out of no were. Here I leave two different concerts:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=endscreen&v=ClmIE-8ML98&NR=1 (Saitama)

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Kwhd-4pYvs (Niigata)

    1. I know just forgot to edit it. I might add the strong vocals in the chorus though, because you can really here differences between chorusses with a lead vocal

  4. I think you should take off the strong vocals, because in all of the songs of SNSD, there is always, or most of the times, a voice that is heard over the others, for example flower power where you can perfectly distinguish Taeyeon’s voice over the others in the chorus, so I think putting them now, and only in this song is pointless.

  5. I think Sunny (and Sooyoung) lead the 2nd “ima Time Machine”
    the voice is higher.

    also, I think there might be more than 1 member leading
    because I hear 2 voices.

    1st would be Jess+Seo then Soo+YoonA
    2nd would be Sunny+Soo then Jess+Yuri or Seo
    3rd would be Hyo+Yuri then Jess+Seo(or Jess only)

    but it just my guess, but it’s pretty obvious
    that Sunny lead the “Ima Time Machine” part.

  6. i really appreciate the fact that you decided to change those parts in the chorus..it’s quite clear that one member is leading, so thank you…i was waiting for you to do that

  7. “de tsukuri age ta story mo munashiku”

    It should actually be “*futari* de tsukuri age ta story mo munashiku” since the translation of the line is “The story created by the two of us was also in vain” and “futari” means “two people” (or in this case, two of us). :]

  8. FSBolthof, if you are putting strong vocals, please take a look at this video and tell me what you think, I have been listening to this song a lot, and the more I listen the more doubts I have because of this video, is really weird, but I think is pretty acurate:

  9. The last part should be:

    [Tae]Yeah futari no omoide wasurete shimau mae ni
    [Tiff]Gimme a time machine
    [Jess]Oh, Gimme a time machine
    [Sun]Oh, Gimme a time machine

    I omitted the “oh” in Tiffany and Jessica’s part.
