Shadow of the Heart

Kageboushi

On nights when I miss kindness,
人の優しさ恋しい夜は
Hito no yasashisa koishii yoru wa
My heart aches, and I cry like a man.
男泣きする切ない胸が
Otoko naki suru setsunai mune ga
If this warmth wraps around me,
この身を包む温もりならば
Kono mi wo tsutsumu nukumori nara ba
Even if it’s not love, we can still trust each other.
愛じゃなくても信じ合える
Ai'dja nakutemo shinji aeru

If it’s a bond of the heart, let’s drown it in booze.
心の絆なら酒でもくらって
kokoro no kizunara sake demo kuratte
If it’s someone I want to share with,
渡したい人なら
Wabitai hito nara
I’ll put my hands together.
この手を合わせて
Kono te wo awasete
Your profile, holding back loneliness,
寂しさこらえたお前の横顔
Sabishisa koraeta omae no yokogao
Dragging yesterday along,
昨日を引きずる
Kinou wo hikizuru
That shadow of the heart.
そんな影ぼうし
Son'na kage bohushi

On nights when a light flickers in my chest,
胸に灯りをともした夜は
Mune ni akari wo tomoshita yoru wa
Only memories darken my heart.
思い出だけが心の根暗
Omoide dake ga kokoro no negura
Even if dreams are torn and I’m alone,
夢がちぎれて一人でいても
Yume ga chigirete hitori de itemo
I can forget someone for a moment.
誰かをだけば忘れられる
Dareka wo dakeba wasure rareru

If it’s a bond of the heart, let’s wash it with tears.
心の絆なら涙で洗って
Kokoro no kizunara namida de aratte
If it’s someone I want to see, I’ll close my eyes.
会いたい人ならこの目を潰って
Aitai hitonara kono me wo tsubutte
Your lonely back is your life,
寂しい背中がお前の人生
Sabishii senaka ga omae no jinsei
Dragging yesterday along, that shadow of the heart.
昨日を引きずるそんな影ぼうし
Kinou wo hikizuru son'na kage bohushi
