Tentai Kansoku
午前二時 踏み切りに望遠鏡をかついでった
gozen niji fumikiri ni bouenkyou wo katsuidetta
ベルトに結んだラジオ 雨は降らないらしい
beruto ni musunda rajio ame wa furanai rashii
二分後に君が来た 大袈裟な荷物 手ってきた
nifungo ni kimi ga kita oogesa na nimotsu shotte kita
始めようか天体観測 方角星を探して
hajime you ka tentai kansoku houkiboshi wo sagashite
深い闇に飲まれないように精一杯だった
fukai yami ni nomarenai youni seiippai datta
君の震える手を握ろうとしたあの日は
kimi no furueru te wo nigirou to shita ano hi wa
見えないものを見ようとして望遠鏡を覗き込んだ
mienai mono wo miyou to shite bouenkyou wo nozokikonda
静寂を切り裂いて幾つも声が生まれたよ
seijaku wo kirisaite ikutsumo koe ga umareta yo
明日が僕らを呼んだって返事も六にしなかった
ashita ga bokura wo yondatte henji mo roku ni shinakatta
今」という方角 君と二人追いかけていた
"ima" to iu houkiboshi kimi to futari oikakete ita
気がつけばいつだってひたすら何か探している
ki ga tsukeba itsu datte hitasura nanika sagashite iru
幸せの定義とか悲しみの置き場とか
shiawase no teigi toka kanashimi no okiba toka
生まれたら死ぬまでずっと探してる
umaretara shinu made zutto sagashite'ru
さあ始めようか天体観測 方角星を探して
saa hajime you ka tentai kansoku houkiboshi wo sagashite
今まで見つけたものは全部覚えている
ima made mitsuketa mono wa zenbu oboete iru
君の震える手を握れなかった痛みも
kimi no furueru te wo nigirenakatta itami mo
知らないものを知ろうとして望遠鏡を覗き込んだ
shiranai mono wo shirou to shite bouenkyou wo nozokikonda
暗闇を照らすようなかすかな光探したよ
kurayami wo terasu youna kasuka na hikari sagashita yo
そうして知った痛みを未だに僕は覚えている
sou shite shitta itami wo imada ni boku wa oboete iru
今という方角 今も一人追いかけてる
ima to iu houkiboshi ima mo hitori oikakete'ru
背が伸びるに連れて伝えたいことも増えてった
se ga nobiru ni tsurete tsutaetai koto mo fuetetta
宛名のない手紙も崩れるほど重なった
atena no nai tegami mo kuzureru hodo kasanatta
僕は元気でいるよ 心配ごとも少ないよ
boku wa genki de iru yo shinpai goto mo sukunai yo
ただひとつ今も思い出すよ
tada hitotsu ima mo omoidasu yo
予報外れの雨に打たれて泣き出しそうな
yohou hazure no ame ni utarete nakidashi sou na
君の震える手を握れなかったあの日を
kimi no furueru te wo nigirenakatta ano hi wo
見えてるものを見落として望遠鏡をまたかついで
mieteru mono wo miotoshite bouenkyou wo mata katsuide
静寂と暗闇の帰り道を駆け抜けた
seijaku to kurayami no kaerimichi wo kakenuketa
そうして知った痛みが未だに僕を支えている
sou shite shitta itami ga imada ni boku wo sasaete iru
今という方角 今も一人追いかけてる
ima to iu houkiboshi ima mo hitori oikakete'ru
もう一度君に会おうとして望遠鏡をまたかついで
mou ichido kimi ni aou to shite bouenkyou wo mata katsuide
前と同じ午前二時 踏み切りまで駆けてくよ
mae to onaji gozen niji fumikiri made kaketeku yo
始めようか天体観測 二分後に君が来なくとも
hajime you ka tentai kansoku nifungo ni kimi ga konakutomo
今」という方角 君と二人追いかけてる

Stargazing
At 2 AM, I headed to the crossing with a telescope in hand
Tied my radio to my belt, looks like it won’t rain
Two minutes later, you showed up, carrying a heavy load
Shall we start stargazing? Let’s look for the North Star
I was doing my best not to get swallowed by the deep darkness
That day, I tried to hold your trembling hand
Peering through the telescope, trying to see the unseen
Voices were born, cutting through the silence
Even when tomorrow called us, I didn’t respond
In the direction of now, I was chasing it with you
I realized I’m always searching for something
Definitions of happiness or a place for sadness
Since we’re born, we’re searching until we die
So, shall we start stargazing? Let’s look for the North Star
I remember everything I’ve found so far
Even the pain of not being able to hold your trembling hand
Peering through the telescope, trying to know the unknown
I searched for a faint light to illuminate the darkness
And the pain I learned from that still sticks with me
In the direction of now, I’m still chasing it alone
As I grew taller, the things I wanted to say increased
Letters without addresses piled up until they crumbled
I’m doing well, not much to worry about
But there’s one thing I still remember
Caught in unexpected rain, about to cry
That day when I couldn’t hold your trembling hand
Overlooking what’s visible, I hoisted the telescope again
Rushed through the road back to silence and darkness
And the pain I learned from that still supports me
In the direction of now, I’m still chasing it alone
Trying to meet you once more, I hoisted the telescope again
At 2 AM, just like before, I’ll run to the crossing
Shall we start stargazing? Even if you don’t show up in two minutes
In the direction of now, I’m chasing it with you.
