Lyrics:

[日本語]

[English]

I can’t wait for that time

I can't wait for that moment

sunset in your eyes, I know... but you don’t know

That sunset in your eyes, I know... but you don’t realize

I can’t wait for that time

I’m looking forward to that moment

sunset inside a frame I know, only I know

Sunset captured in a frame, I know... only I can see

ビルの屋上で気の合う仲間達と

Up on the rooftop with my close friends

片手にはcold one, cool sound on the stereo

One hand holding a cold one, cool tunes on the stereo

目配せた君は長い髪かき分け

You catch my eye, move aside your long hair

ゆっくり近づいてくる

Slowly, you're getting closer

落ちてゆく陽が君の頬を染め

The setting sun colors your cheeks

その瞳に差し掛かった瞬間

The moment I lock eyes with you

反射した光が街に降り注いで輝いていく

Reflected light falls over the city, shining bright

The diamond sunset

The diamond sunset

OHOH,OHOH,OHOH

OHOH, OHOH, OHOH

OHOH,OHOH,OHOH

OHOH, OHOH, OHOH

The diamond sunset

The diamond sunset

OHOH,OHOH,OHOH

OHOH, OHOH, OHOH

OHOH,OHOH,OHOH

OHOH, OHOH, OHOH

The diamond sunset

The diamond sunset

I can’t wait for that time

I can't wait for that moment

sunset makes me blush, I know...but you don’t know

That sunset makes me blush, I know... but you don't realize

I can’t wait for that time

I'm eagerly awaiting that moment

sunset inside of me I know, only I know

That sunset inside me, I know... only I feel it

夢の中の様な流れる時間に

In a flowing time like dreaming

沁み込んでくalcohol, feel good, got a little drunk

Soaked in alcohol, feeling good, got a little tipsy

寄り添った君は静かに目を閉じて

Youarested close, quietly closing your eyes

ゆっくり身をゆだねる

Gently surrendering yourself

落ちてゆく陽が空と別れて

The setting sun parts from the sky

二人だけを包み込んだ瞬間

The moment that wrapped only us

反射した光が夜を照らし続け眠らせない

Reflected light keeps shining through the night, never letting us sleep

The diamond sunset

The diamond sunset

OHOH,OHOH,OHOH

OHOH, OHOH, OHOH

OHOH,OHOH,OHOH

OHOH, OHOH, OHOH

The diamond sunset

The diamond sunset

OHOH,OHOH,OHOH

OHOH, OHOH, OHOH

OHOH,OHOH,OHOH

OHOH, OHOH, OHOH

The diamond sunset

The diamond sunset

夕日が沈んで夜が来て

The sunset dips, and night comes

朝日が昇るまで一緒に…

Until the morning sun rises, we’ll be together...

The diamond sunset

The diamond sunset

OHOH,OHOH,OHOH （yeah The diamond sunset）

OHOH, OHOH, OHOH (Yeah, the diamond sunset)

OHOH,OHOH,OHOH （yeah diamond inside of me）

OHOH, OHOH, OHOH (Yeah, diamond inside me)

The diamond sunset

The diamond sunset

OHOH,OHOH,OHOH

OHOH, OHOH, OHOH

The diamond sunset

The diamond sunset
