The performer uses simple details like laundry days and takoyaki stalls to anchor the story in reality.
Te wo tsunaida atoAfter we held hands,
Sukoshi shibui kao wo shitaYou made a slightly sour face.
Go souzou no tooriJust as you’d imagine,
Kare wa koi wo suru uchuujin da tokaHe’s an alien in love or something like that.
Toki wo ouka shitaWe lived for the moment,
Kimi wa natsu no you na me deWith your eyes that looked just like summer,
Sekai ga ikutsu areba watashitachi wa musubareru no kanaI wonder how many worlds would it take for us to finally be together?
Sentakubiyori ni kagitte boku waOn a perfect day for laundry, I’ve gone and
Nebou wo kamashi mawaranai laundryOverslept, while the washing machine’s still not running.
Monohoshi to aoi sora no shita t-shirt demo hoseba iro ga utsurisouIf I hang a t-shirt under the rack and the blue sky, the colors might just bleed.
Lavender no kaoriThe scent of lavender,
Yawarakai hibi niIn these gentle days,
Veranda kara nozokikondaI peeked out from the veranda.
Soko ni yurayurari fura futari te wo tsunagi aruki tasogareThere they go swaying, the two of them holding hands and walking at dusk.
Boku wa utautaiI’m a singer,
Utawazu ni wa irarenai wazurai wo shiteruSuffering from an ailment where I just can’t stop singing.
Anata ni hare hayaru kotobaClear skies for you, and words that rush out,
Sugiru kisetsu mitai miraiA future that’s just like the seasons passing by.
Wasureta yo ne kono kisetsuWe’ve forgotten, haven’t we? This season,
Koi ni ochita riyuu nante saAnd the reason why we even fell in love.
Uchuusen wo uchiotoshite hanabi ni negaikomete tsubuyakuI’ll shoot down a spaceship and whisper a wish to the fireworks.
Ano hoshi wo boku wa shitteruI know that star over there,
Natsukashii you na nioi ga suruIt has such a nostalgic scent.
Moshimo omae ga inakattaraIf you hadn’t been here,
Boku no suteki na heibon waMy wonderful, ordinary life
Kitto mamorareteWould surely have been protected.
Hanayaka ni kowarete suteki na omoideIt’s broken so brilliantly, becoming a lovely memory.
Dakedo soko ni byutto arawareru kara dou ni mo ikan naaBut since you suddenly appear right there, I just can’t help myself.
Kokoro ubawareteruMy heart’s been stolen away,
Hitorikiri nakeru natsuIn a summer where I cry all alone.
Dakara utatane fusagarete sainamareteru ano hi no yoakeSo my nap’s interrupted and I’m tormented by the dawn of that day.
Dakedo kono inochi kono kokoro ni nokoru wazurai wo shiteruBut I’m still suffering from this ailment left in my life and my heart.
Anata ni hare hayaru kotobaClear skies for you, and these words in a hurry,
Sugiru kisetsu mitai miraiThe future’s like seasons slipping away.
Wasureta yo ne kono kisetsuYou’ve forgotten this season, haven’t you?
Koi ni ochita riyuu nante saThe whole reason we fell in love in the first place.
Uchuusen wo uchiotoshite hanabi ni negaikomete tsubuyakuI’ll bring down a spaceship and murmur a wish to the fireworks.
Ano hoshi wo boku wa shitteruI’m familiar with that star,
Natsukashii you na nioi ga suruIt smells like something from long ago.
Kako ima tada itsuwarinai honnePast and present, just my true feelings without lies.
Concrete atsuku moeru hiru to ryoumeThe concrete’s burning hot at noon, and my eyes are focused.
Aishiteru yo kono hibiI love these days,
Uso mitai dakedo jijitsuIt sounds like a lie, but it’s the truth.
Dakara chotto mimi wo yoseteSo lean in your ear just a bit,
Sukoshi kiiteAnd listen for a moment.
Sanchoume no saki no yataiThe food stall past the third block,
Soko wo susumi nakaba ni aru shateki de jikan wo tsubusu n daI’ll head that way and kill some time at the shooting gallery halfway down.
Toki ni nareba ore ga senaka kara koe wo kakete mukau saki wa sukoshi takai kigi no sukima yama no yoko hanabi ga agaruWhen the time comes, I’ll call out from behind you and head toward the gap in the tall trees by the mountain where the fireworks go up.
Dare hitori to shite me wo awasennaDon’t look anyone in the eye.
Kono hi kono toki ni wa kaoranai lavenderOn this day, at this moment, there’s no scent of lavender.
Okisutete kita kokoroThe heart I’ve gone and left behind,
Marude boku wa gomibakoMakes me feel just like a trash can.
Hoshi to tomo ni nagarete ike k#so na wakuseiFlow away along with the stars, you shtty planet.
Anata ni hare hayaru kotobaClear skies for you, and these racing words,
Sugiru kisetsu mitai miraiThe future is like seasons drifting past.
Wasureta yo ne kono kisetsuWe’ve forgotten this season, right?
Koi ni ochita riyuu nante saThe reason we fell in love and all that.
Uchuusen wo uchiotoshiteI’ll shoot down a spaceship,
Hanabi ni negaikomete tsubuyakuAnd whisper a wish into the fireworks.
Ano hoshi wo boku wa shitteru natsukashii yoI know that star, it feels so nostalgic.
Anata ni hare watashi ni ameClear skies for you, but rain for me,
Sugiru kisetsu itai itaiThe passing seasons are so painful, so painful.
Wasureteta yo bokutachi ga koi ni ochitaI’d forgotten that we’d fallen in love,
Riyuu nante saThe reason and everything else.
Nagareru kumo fukinukeru kazeThe drifting clouds and the wind blowing through,
Kushami hitotsu de tobashi tsubuyakuI’ll blow them away with a single sneeze and whisper.
Kono hoshi wo boku wa shitteruI know this star,
Natsukashii you na nioi ga suruIt has such a nostalgic scent.
