Higasa

Distant memories that I trace
とおくなぞるきおく
tooku nazoru kioku
The voice of the sweltering cicadas
あせばんだせみのこえ
asebanda semi no koe
Skin to skin
はだとはだで
hada to hada de
Exchanged eternity
かわしたえいえん
kawashita eien
Fragile and young
おさなくもろく
osanaku moroku

The distance between the two of us, so decisive
きめこまかなふたりのきょりを
kimekomaka na futari no kyori o
Even if I throw away my powerlessness
はかれないむりょくをなげいても
hakarenai muryoku o nageite mo
After losing, it's too dazzling
なくしたあとはまぶしすぎて
nakushita ato wa mabushisugite

My wishes don't reach, days don't stop
ねがいはとどかずにひびはとまらずに
negai wa todokazu ni hibi wa tomarazu ni
Another today comes
なんどめかのきょうがきて
nandomeka no kyou ga kite
I think again this year about your happiness
ことしもまたおもうきみのふしあわせ
kotoshi mo mata omou kimi no fushiawase
The room I return to and I wait
かえるへやとぼくがまつ
kaeru heya to boku ga matsu

If you're hurt somehow
どうかきずついたなら
dou ka kizutsuita nara
It's okay to take a detour, it's okay to stay in the shade
よりみちでもいいひかげでもいいから
yorimichi demo ii hikage demo ii kara

The town is flooded and lively
まちはうかれはずむ
machi wa ukare hazumu
Footsteps and a love song
あしおととこいのうた
ashioto to koi no uta
From the subway, a sudden fever
ちかてつからふぶくしゃくねつ
chikatetsu kara fubuku shakunetsu
Burning coldly
つめたくこがす
tsumetaku kogasu

Coincidences are so annoying
ぐうぜんなどおこがましくて
guuzen nado okogamashikute
I searched and caught you many times
さがしてはなんどもつかまえた
sagashite wa nandomo tsukamaeta
A flower like you fills the gap
きみににたはなすきまうめる
kimi ni nita hana sukima umeru

If my wish comes true, with these dirty hands
もしもがかなうならこのよごれたてで
moshimo ga kanau nara kono yogoreta te de
Take me somewhere far away
どこかとおくつれさって
dokoka tooku tsuresatte
On the way back, with a complex love
かえりみちにまようふくざつなあいで
kaerimichi ni mayou fukuzatsu na ai de
I hold on tightly and won't let go
つよくやいてはなさない
tsuyoku yaite hanasanai
If only you notice that you're next to me
どうかきみのとなりがそれにきづくまえに
dou ka kimi no tonari ga sore ni kizuku mae ni
Before you realize it, I'll let go
てばなしますように
tebanashimasu you ni

The meeting was too soon, the parting too late
はやすぎたであいとおそすぎたわかれ
hayasugita deai to ososugita wakare
I gave up saying it's a prank
いたずらだとあきらめて
itazura da to akiramete
If I turn my eyes away, my long summer will end
めをそらせばおわるぼくのながいなつ
me o soraseba owaru boku no nagai natsu
Now it's still beautiful
いまならまだうつくしく
ima nara mada utsukushiku

My wishes don't reach, days don't stop
ねがいはとどかずにひびはとまらずに
negai wa todokazu ni hibi wa tomarazu ni
Another today comes
なんどめかのきょうがきて
nandomeka no kyou ga kite
I think again this year about your happiness
ことしもまたおもうきみのふしあわせ
kotoshi mo mata omou kimi no fushiawase
The room I return to and I wait
かえるへやとぼくがまつ
kaeru heya to boku ga matsu
If you're hurt somehow, it's okay to take a detour
どうかきずついたならよりみちでもいい
dou ka kizutsui ta nara yorimichi demo ii
It's okay to stay in the shade, even so it's okay
ひかげでもいいからそれでもいい
hikage demo ii kara soredemo ii
