[English]

Everyone, what should we do? Huh?

It's okay.

Are you already coming?

You're already coming.

It's coming, it's coming.

Does everyone want to see the pyramids?

Pyramid

Huh?

I want to go to Egypt, right?

What are you talking about?

Well then, here's the summer band, 米米CLUB.

What makes you think this is a summer band?

Let’s go to the pyramids today!

That's not right.

Please listen.

This is the song.

Romantic Flight!

Thinking “I want to see you” is more important than anything.

Turn your eyes to what's behind the suffering.

Dream, no matter when.

Everything should start from there.

Since meeting you, we’ve talked through many nights.

My dream bursting with intensity.

With just one suitcase, we’ll Romantic Flight into the sky.

Fly around, this My Heart.

wow wow wowowowow wow wow wowowowow

From there, running away is something anyone can do.

You can’t shelter from the rain with an umbrella called “giving up.”

Everything, before you know it,

Before it changes shape.

Someday, even inside your chest, so it won’t cloud over, Right Away.

I’ll chase it, My Friend.

With just one suitcase, we’ll Romantic Flight into the sky.

Fly around, this My Heart.

wow wow wowowowow wow wow wowowowow

Don’t forget that thrill.

You’re not alone, to the sky once more.

Even inside that chest, so it won’t cloud over, Right Away.

I’ll chase it, My Friend.

With just one suitcase, we’ll Romantic Flight into the sky.

Fly around, this My Heart.

Even as time passes and everyone moves on, You’re Just Friend! in this heart.

With just one suitcase, we’ll Romantic Flight into the sky.

Fly around, this My Heart.

wowowowow wow wow wowowowow

wowowowow wowowowow

Thank you very much.

[Japanese]

みんなどうよ　え？

いいよ

だっ！って来てる？

だっ！って来てる

来てる　来てる

みんなピラミッド見たい？

ピラミッド

え？

エジプト行きたいね

何を言い出したの

さて　と言うわけで夏バンド　米米CLUB

どこが夏バンドなんだよ

今日はピラミッドへ行こう！

違いますね

聴いてください

この曲です

浪漫飛行！

「逢いたい」と思うことが　何よりも大切だよ

苦しさの裏側にあることに眼を向けて

夢を見てよ　どんな時でも

全てはそこから始まるはずさ

君と出逢ってから　いくつもの夜を語り明かした

はちきれるほどMy Dream

トランク一つだけで浪漫飛行へIn The Sky

飛びまわれ　このMy Heart

wow wow wowowowow　wow wow wowowowow

そこから「逃げだす」ことは　誰にでもできることさ

あきらめという名の傘じゃ　雨はしのげない

何もかもが　知らないうちに

形を変えてしまう前に

いつかその胸の中までも 　くもらぬようにRight Away

おいかけるのさMy Friend

トランク一つだけで浪漫飛行へIn The Sky

飛びまわれ　このMy Heart

wow wow wowowowow　wow wow wowowowow

忘れないで　あのときめき

一人じゃない　もう一度空へ

その胸の中までも　くもらぬようにRight Away

おいかけるのさMy Friend

トランク一つだけで浪漫飛行へIn The Sky

飛びまわれ　このMy Heart

時が流れて誰もが行き過ぎてもYou’re Just Friend!　この胸に

トランク一つだけで浪漫飛行へIn The Sky

飛びまわれ　このMy Heart

wowowowow　　wow wow wowowowow

wowowowow　wowowowow

ありがとうございました
