[日本語]

[English]

Boys and Girls

Boys and Girls

妄想は当然だ

Daydreams are only natural

良し悪しじゃない好きな方角

It's not about right or wrong, it's about the direction you love

どれもが奇跡

Everything is a miracle

君だけのその世界

That world of your own

愛してるよ ホープレス

I love you, Hopeless

「満ち足らない」こそね

Because feeling 'not enough' is what it's all about

わかりはしないから

Because I can't understand it

いつもドキドキしていれるんでしょう？

Isn't it where I always stay excited?

アンテナコントロールして

Keep the antenna in control

憂鬱も抱きしめて

Embrace even the gloom

どこまでも行ける

We can go anywhere

そんな気がしてる

That's how I feel

少しずつと変わる

Changing little by little

人や季節に疲れてしまうけど

Getting tired of people and seasons, but

私が私自身を諦めて

If I give up on myself

痛みに気づけない

I can't even notice the pain

未来がただ怖い

The future just scares me

愛してるの？ どうりで

Do you love me? No wonder

見失うばっかりで

I'm just losing sight

測れはしない

I can't measure it

幸福の意味付けをしてるんでしょう？

You're trying to define what happiness means, right?

アンテナコントロールして

Keep the antenna in control

古傷も抱きしめて

Hold onto old wounds too

どこまでも戻れる

We can go back anywhere

そんな気がしてる

That's how I feel

感じ取った？ 理の電波

Did you sense it? The signals of reason

受け取った？ 私の愛は

Did you receive it? My love is

間違ったことなんて無いわ

There's nothing wrong with it

君だけの存在の周波

Your unique frequency

やり直したい過去は無いけど

I have no past I want to redo

謝れたら良いな

I wish I could apologize

過ぎ去ったものは戻らないけど

What has gone won't come back

今日を生きる私の銀河

My galaxy of living today

愛を捨てるの？ 本気で？

Are you going to give up love? Really?

疲れてしまったの？

Are you tired?

アンテナは動いてる

The antenna is moving

私たちは生きている

We are alive

何をしていても

No matter what we're doing

変わらない真実です

It's the unchanging truth

愛してるよ ホープレス

I love you, Hopeless

数知れない交差で

Through countless crossings

まだ見ぬ景色に

Toward the unseen scenery

ドキドキ出来るんでしょう？

Can you get excited again?

アンテナコントロールして

Keep the antenna in control

全てを抱きしめて

Embrace everything

どこまでも行ける

We can go anywhere

そんな気がしてる

That's how I feel
