[日本語]

[English]

海岸通り　カフェのテント Kaigandouri cafe no tent

Beachside street, the cafe tent

椅子を重ね　終わる夏 Isu wo kasane owaru natsu

Stacked chairs, the summer that's ending

会いたいって君の電話 Aitai tte kimi no denwa

Your call saying you want to see me

何を思い出させる？ Nani wo omoidasaseru？

What does it bring to mind?

もし何かあればすぐ駆けつける Moshi nanika areba sugu kaketsukeru

If there's anything, I'll rush right over

その約束に嘘はない Sono yakusoku ni uso wa nai

There's no lie in that promise

あの頃の僕は　まだ若すぎて Anokoro no boku wa mada wakasugite

Back then, I was still too young

そばにいられなかったけど Soba ni irarenakatta kedo

I couldn't stay by your side

久しぶりのリップグロス Hisashiburi no lip gloss

Long after my lips first touched lip gloss

あの日より輝いているよ Anohi yori kagayaite iru yo

I'm shining brighter than those days

君は今きっと幸せってことだろう Kimi wa ima kitto shiawase tte koto darou

And you must surely be happy now

あんなにも好きだった Annanimo suki datta

I loved you so much back then

僕たちは見つめ合うだけで… Bokutachi wa mitsumeau dake de...

Just gazing at each other...

唇はこんなにも近づいてるのに… Kuchibiru wa konnanimo chikazuiteru noni...

Though our lips are so close...

いつも二人　歩いた道 Itsumo futari aruita michi

The road we've always walked together

別々に帰ろう Betsubetsu ni kaerou

Let's part ways here

季節もいつかは過ぎてくように Kisetsu mo itsuka wa sugiteku youni

Just like the seasons, they will pass someday

別れはやって来るんだ Wakare wa yattekurunda

Partings will come for sure

言えなかったこと　そのままにして Ienakatta koto sonomama ni shite

Leaving things unsaid as they are

海はもう遊泳禁止 Umi wa mou yuuei kinshi

The ocean is now off-limits for swimming

見えなかったリップグロス Mienakatta lip gloss

The lip gloss I couldn't see back then

あの頃のマスクを外して Anokoro no mask wo hazushite

Remove the mask from those days

今　僕に何を話しに来たのだろうか？ Ima boku ni nani wo hanashini kita no darouka？

I wonder what you're coming to talk to me about now?

思い出が眩(まぶ)しいよ Omoide ga mabushii yo

Memories are dazzling

キスをしたフレーバーも覚えてる Kiss wo shita flavor mo oboeteru

I still remember the flavor of our kiss

本当は何となく想像ついてた Hontou wa nantonaku souzou tsuiteta

Honestly, I kind of had an idea

結婚をするんじゃないか？ Kekkon wo surunjanaika？

Are you going to get married?

おめでとうとしか言えない Omedetou to shika ienai

I can only say congratulations

久しぶりのリップグロス Hisashiburi no lip gloss

Long after my lips first touched lip gloss

あの日より輝いているよ Anohi yori kagayaiteiru yo

I'm shining brighter than those days

君は今きっと幸せってことだろう Kimi wa ima kitto shiawase tte koto darou

And you must surely be happy now

あんなにも好きだった Annanimo suki datta

I loved you so much back then

僕たちは見つめ合うだけで… Bokutachi wa mitsumeau dake de...

Just gazing at each other...

唇はこんなにも近づいてるのに… Kuchibiru wa konnanimo chikazuiteru noni...

Though our lips are so close...

新しいリップグロス Atarashii lip gloss

New lip gloss

次の愛が眩(まぶ)しいよ Tsugi no ai ga mabushii yo

The next love is dazzling

僕はずっと忘れない Boku wa zutto wasurenai

I will never forget

永遠(とわ)に輝く唇を… Towa ni kagayaku kuchibiru wo...

Eternally shining lips...
