Calling
Foi • From “Rondo”
What is the meaning of Calling Lyrics from Rondo?
Foi notes the line ‘It’s 3 AM and I can’t sleep’ to set a restless tone. The artist paints a latte watered down from melted ice, a tiny visual of lingering warmth. The artist describes a music box humming inside the head, a concrete sound that guides the night.
Am3 nemurenaiIt’s 3 AM and I can’t sleep.
Kimi no phone call like a rapusodiYour phone call’s like a rhapsody.
Odoru mama manimaniI’m just dancing along to your rhythm.
Say 080-203Say 080-203.
Kedo ai wa motto ofurainBut our love is even better offline.
Iki wo kirashiteru tenshi toWith an out-of-breath angel,
Hiza kunde tobu yoru no hashiwe’re crossing the bridge of the night together.
Nantonaku yorimichi wo suruI’m taking a bit of a detour for no reason.
Shinpaku no kazu kimi ni todoitara iiI wish my heartbeat could reach you.
Calling my heartCalling my heart,
Ima aitai waI want to see you now.
Okubyoukaze ni fukarete mo zuttoEven if the ‘wind of cowardice’ blows,
Hanasanai de nedon’t ever let me go.
Toumei na machi wo sometaraOnce I’ve painted this transparent city,
Nagareru hoshi ni notte kimi no tokoro madeI’ll ride a shooting star to where you are.
Am6 nemui noniIt’s 6 AM and I’m sleepy,
Kimi to mada hanashitarinaibut I still haven’t talked to you enough.
Futari de ajiwau furukousuWe’re savoring this ‘full-course’ conversation together.
Nounai maiteru orugooruA music box is playing inside my head.
Sutte iki wo haiteBreathe in, breathe out.
Atto iu ma da neIt all happened in the blink of an eye.
Koori ga tokete usumatta rateMy latte’s watered down from the melted ice.
3 2 1 Shhh3, 2, 1, shhh.
Calling my heartCalling my heart,
Koe wo kikasetelet me hear your voice.
Kinsen ni fureru hz de sottoSoftly, at a ‘hertz’ frequency that touches my heartstrings,
Kokoro yurashitemake my heart sway.
Taikutsu na hibi no sukima niInto the gaps of these boring days,
Ima dake wa senobi shite ai wo sosogitaijust for now, I want to reach out and pour in some love.
Kinou yori mo sukoshi suki yoI like you a little more than I did yesterday.
Nante iu to warau deshouYou’d probably laugh if I said that, wouldn’t you?
Kyarameru yori mo amakuteIt’s sweeter than caramel.
Kuramu yume ga mitai no neI want to have a dream so dazzling it makes me dizzy.
Shirokujichuu yobidashichuuI’m calling you all day and night.
Calling my heartCalling my heart,
Ima aitai waI want to see you now.

Nagareru hoshi ni notte kimi no moto eI’ll ride a shooting star to your side.
Calling my heartCalling my heart,
Koe wo kikasetelet me hear your voice.
