Sentimental Bus

Waiting for the bus, why am I waiting for the bus
BASUをまつ なぜ BASUをまつ
BASU wo matsu naze BASU wo matsu
Just lingering around with no purpose
あてもなくただ ただいじはる
ate mo naku tada tada ijiharu
Caught up in a hazy dream
DAIYAにあいまいはくみこまれ
DAIYA ni aimai wa kumikomare
Not stopping at the bus stop
たちどまらず BASUSUTOPPU
tachidomarazu BASUSUTOPPU
What I got was just a single lie
てにいれたのはひとつのうそ
te ni ireta no wa hitotsu no uso
She came out of the building, "That's enough"
でてきたかのじょの MANSHON \"もういい\"
dete kita kanojo no MANSHON "mou ii"
The heat rises, cooling off in the sun
あがるたいおん さめたたいおう
agaru taion sameta taiou
Going around in circles, end of summer
どうどうめぐり なつのおわり
doudoumeguri natsu no owari
Cars rushing by, like a snapshot
すどおりするくるま SUTO-RI-うつす
sudoori suru kuruma SUTO-RI- utsusu
I wonder if I'm alright with this
おれはおれ これでいいかととう
ore wa ore kore de ii ka to tou
Waiting for a bus, waiting for a bus
こたえまつ waiting for a bus
kotae matsu waiting for a bus
Leaning on the bus stop, gently swaying
ゆだねる BASUてい ゆれてる
yudaneru BASUtei yureteru
From over there, from over there, whatever, whatever
むこうから むこうから なんだいも なんだいも
mukou kara mukou kara nandai mo nandai mo
Sliding towards the intersection, a breeze
すべりこむこうさてんのほうこう
suberikomu kousaten no houkou
A transparent figure crosses my path, me
よこぎるとうめいにんげん おれ
yokogiru toumei ningen ore

Getting on the bus, getting on the bus
BASUにのる BASUにのる
BASU ni noru BASU ni noru
Just with a bag, getting on the bus
かばんひとつで BASUにのる
kaban hitotsu de BASU ni noru
Leaving behind a city I was born in
なれしだしんだまちをせいに
nareshitashinda machi wo sei ni
The bus is running
BASUははしる
BASU wa hashiru
(x2)
(x2)
(x2)

Slowly falling, the summer sunlight
じょじょにおちてく なつのひざし
jojo ni ochiteku natsu no hizashi
You gave me your flowing hair
きみがくれたてがみをひらき
kimi ga kureta tegami wo hiraki
Repeating, re-reading
くりかえしくりかえしよみかえす
kurikaeshi kurikaeshi yomikaesu
Our time comes back to life
ふたりのじかんがよみがえる
futari no jikan ga yomigaeru
I can't get back on
もうのりかえることはできない
mou norikaeru koto wa dekinai
Everything has started to move
すべてはうごきだした
subete wa ugokidashita
A pale gray, somewhat dark
あおじろいしゃない うすくらく
aojiroi shanai usukuraku
Crouched within deep shadows
ふかく SHI-TOにうずくまる
fukaku SHI-TO ni uzukumaru

Only the sadness remains in my memories
かなしみばかりきおくに
kanashimi bakari kioku ni
So don’t come and send me off
のこるからこないでみおくり
nokoru kara konaide miokuri
If you keep waving until I'm out of sight
みえなくなるまできみがてをふりつづけたら
mienaku naru made kimi ga te wo furitsudzuketara
I would probably end up crying
ぼくはきっとなくだろう
boku wa kitto naku darou
That's what I think of every time night falls
そればかりおもいだすだろう よるがくるたび
sore bakari omoidasu darou yoru ga kuru tabi
Until midnight, we were in the car, holding each other tight yesterday
まよなかまでくるまにのってだきあってたきのう
mayonaka made kuruma ni notte dakiatteta kinou
Every time I part from you to make my dreams come true
ゆめをかなえるために きみとはなれるたびに
yume wo kanaeru tame ni kimi to hanareru tabi ni
The more our lips touch, the harder it is to let go
くちびるかさねるたびにはなれられなくなる
kuchibiru kasaneru tabi ni hanarerarenaku naru
The more we touch, the harder the goodbye becomes
ふれあえばあうほど わかれはつらくなる
fureaeba au hodo wakare wa tsuraku naru
All night long isn’t quite right, I know it's time to go home
all night longとはいかないの もうかえろう
all night long to wa ikanai no mou kaerou
I know it’s pointless to keep holding on
もうひきとめたって むだってことわかってる
mou hikitometa tte muda tte koto wakatteru
With gestures I can’t put into words
ことばにできないしぐさで
kotoba ni dekinai shigusa de
It’s like I’m dragging you along
かたってる きみをいっしょにさらってくほど
katatteru kimi wo issho ni saratteku hodo
Inescapable hopes as well as
たしかなきぼうも
tashika na kibou mo
Unreliable love
ほうしょうもない あい
houshou mo nai ai
That alone won’t help us
それだけではどうしようもない
soredake dewa doushiyou mo nai
I can't escape this harsh reality
さけられない げんじつもんだい
sakerarenai genjitsu mondai
Your existence is irreplaceable
かけがえのない きみのそんざい
kakegae no nai kimi no sonzai

The sunset just swallowed everything
ゆうひがついさっきのみこまれた
yuuhi ga tsui sakki nomikomareta
Even the path we walked together is dark
ふたりあるいたみちもまっくらだ
futari aruita michi mo makkura da
The air is lukewarm, halfway to neither hot nor cold
くうきはちゅうとはんぱにぬるくて
kuuki wa chuutohanpa ni nurukute
Confusing
あつくもさむくもない まよわす
atsukumo samukumo nai mayowasu
The headlights far in the distance
HEDDORAITOてんとう とおくのほう
HEDDORAITO tentou tooku no hou
Regretting the truth underneath
こうかいしてる ほんとうのとこ
koukai shiteru hontou no toko
Towards the intersection where we used to pass
こうさくするこうさてんのほう
kousaku suru kousaten no hou
The crossed lights are blue
KUROSUWO-KU SHIGUNARUはあお
KUROSUWO-KU SHIGUNARU wa ao
Street corners illuminate the sidewalks
まちかどのがいろとう てらすほこうしゃ
machikado no gairotou terasu hokousha
Lost on a route alone, unrecognizable
ろとうにまよう SHIRUETTOひとり
rotou ni mayou SHIRUETTO hitori
Familiar teary face waiting for her
みなれたなきがお waiting for her
minareta nakigao waiting for her
Looking back at where I came, looking ahead
きたみち ふりむき まえむき
kita michi furimuki maemuki
We held each other while crying
あいつとなきながらだきあった
aitsu to nakinagara dakiatta
The answer I wanted was right here
ほしかったこたえはここにあった
hoshikatta kotae wa koko ni atta
Women always keep tugging
おんなはいつもずり-や
onna wa itsumo zuri- ya
Always reminding me from behind
あとからあとからきづかせて
ato kara ato kara kidzukasete

At the bus stop, I see them
めにとまる BASUていちかくで
me ni tomaru BASUtei chikaku de
Two people who look alike hugging
よくにたふたりがだきあってる
yoku nita futari ga dakiatteru
The streetlights shine like a spotlight
がいとう まるで SUPOTTORAITO
gaitou marude SUPOTTORAITO
Illuminating for the two of us
ふたりのためにひかってる
futari no tame ni hikatteru
The night city is gradually glowing
よるのまちもしだいにかがやく
yoru no machi mo shidai ni kagayaku
"Take care of her," it whispers
"たいせつにしてやれよ\"とささやく
"taisetsu ni shite yare yo" to sasayaku
More than a phone call or a letter
でんわより てがみより
denwa yori tegami yori
The distance we can touch means everything
ふれあえるきょりがなにより
fureaeru kyori ga nani yori
"If it gets hard, come visit me,
"つらくなったらあいにきて
"tsuraku nattara ai ni kite
I’ll be waiting, come pick me up"
ずっとまってるからむかえにきて\"
zutto matteru kara mukae ni kite"
That was the last line I wrote
そうかかれたさいごのいちぎょう
sou kakareta saigo no ichigyou
Someday we’ll go back, but why
いつの日かもどろう なぜに
itsunohika modorou naze ni
To that extent
それほどまでに
sore hodo made ni
You can love someone so selflessly
きみはけなげにひとをあいせるの
kimi wa kenage ni hito wo ai seru no
Men always dream of grander things
おとこはいつもみがってなゆめをみて
otoko wa itsumo migatte na yume wo mite
And sacrifice something for it
なにかをぎせいにする
nanika wo gisei ni suru

Why does it have to be the bus, why does it have to be the bus
BASUになるなぜ BASUになる
BASU ni naru naze BASU ni naru
Picking her up, it's turning into a bus
あいつをのっける BASUになる
aitsu wo nokkeru BASU ni naru
Caught up in loving something, love
あいすことにくみこまれるあいまい
aisu koto ni kumikomareru aimai
Confirming while the bus takes off
たしかめながら BASUははしる
tashikamenagara BASU wa hashiru

Becoming a bus, yeah, becoming a bus
BASUになる そう BASUになる
BASU ni naru sou BASU ni naru
Picking you up, it’s turning into a bus
きみをのっける BASUになる
kimi wo nokkeru BASu ni naru
When will I come to get you
むかえにいくのはいつになる
mukae ni iku no wa itsu ni naru
Crossing through time, the bus is running
じかんをとびこえ BASUははしる
jikan wo tobikoe BASU wa hashiru

(repeat)
repeat
repeat
