夕暮れ 隠れ家探す人の波に 紛れ込んで 誰もが 壁際の席を取り合うように 行きずりに 同じテーブルの君のこと 知りたいな 別々の 灰皿でタバコ 吸ってるだけの |
yuugure kakurega sagasu hito no nami ni magirekonde daremo ga kabegiwa no seki wo toriau you ni yukizuri ni onaji TEEBURU no kimi no koto shiritai na betsubetsu no haizara de TABAKO sutteru dake no |
In the evening I slip into the waves of people Who search for refuge So that everyone Will hold hands along the wall I want to casually know The same table you sit at But I’m just smoking With a separate ashtray |
|
セルフサービスのコーヒーを コートも脱がずに 見つめてる 途切れ途切れに読む本は 始まりも忘れた |
SERUFU-SAABISU no KOOHII wo KOOTO mo nugazu ni mitsumeteru togiretogire ni yomu hon wa hajimari mo wasureta |
I’m looking at you, not even taking off your coat As you make your self-service coffee The book I’m intermittently reading Has forgotten its own beginning |
|
Hide and seek 見えすぎるレンズ をはずした 夜の街 探してる 一つだけのFocus 消えないで |
Hide and seek miesugiru RENZU wo hazushita yoru no machi sagashiteru hitotsu dake no Focus kienaide |
Hide and seek I took off the lens I’d looked through too much And I’m searching For the city at night I have just one focus So don’t ever disappear |
|
細切れの 歌だけで何かが 伝えられるかな 出来るなら かけがえない君のこと だけでも カウンターの 向こうじゃ誰もがStranger に変わるから 私だけが 知ってる君に今会いたくて |
komagire no uta dake de nanika ga tsutaerareru kana dekiru nara kakegaenai kimi no koto dake demo KAUNTAA no mukou ja daremo ga Stranger ni kawaru kara watashi dake ga shitteru kimi ni ima aitakute |
I wonder what I can convey With a song that’s all In little pieces? If I can do that Then it’s possible even for irreplaceable you Because everyone becomes a stranger Beyond the counter Now I want to see you Who only I know |
|
セルフサービスのコーヒーで みんな明日の夢を見てる せめて新しいボールペンで 恋を語りたいね |
SERUFU-SAABISU no KOOHII de minna ashita no yume wo miteru semete atarashii BOORUPEN de koi wo kataritai ne |
With self-service coffee Everyone’s dreaming of tomorrow I want to tell you of my love With at least a new ball-point pen |
|
Hide and seek 見えすぎるレンズ をはずした 夜の中 見えてくる 君だけにFocus 合わせてる |
Hide and seek miesugiru RENZU wo hazushita yoru no naka miete kuru kimi dake ni Focus awaseteru |
Hide and seek I took off the lens I’d looked through too much And I match my focus Just to you Who I can see Within the night |
|
Hide and seek 忘れ物どこに置いたかな 見つからない 振り返る 毎日の中で 君に会った |
Hide and seek wasuremono doko ni oita kana mitsukaranai furikaeru mainichi no naka de kimi ni atta |
Hide and seek Where did I put what I’ve lost? I can’t find it So I look back To within those days When I met you |
|
Hide and seek 見えすぎるレンズ をはずした 夜の街 探してる 一つだけのFocus 消えないで |
Hide and seek miesugiru RENZU wo hazushita yoru no machi sagashiteru hitotsu dake no Focus kienaide |
Hide and seek I took off the lens I’d looked through too much And I’m searching For the city at night I have just one focus So don’t ever disappear |
