[English]

The moment our lips touched

A burst of light was released

It was the first time I realized

Summer is a piece of jewelry

And there is nothing else but you

This ocean, those waves

They can't compete with your radiance

As of today, the whole world

Has surely started to move

Or so it felt to me

In the town where we live, let's go to

The place that is closest

To the sky

Once we hopped on our bikes, even God

Wouldn't know what happens next

The rusty wheels

Play a melody

Look, right here, I'll prove that my love is you

And the sun nodded in agreement

Slowly

Entrusting our bodies to the shimmering heat

Love begins to race

In an instant

At this close distance, love has gained color

And yet, somewhere deep down

I feel lonely

I hate this weakness

As our shadows grow longer

Our hands

Overlap

And connect

No shooting stars fell down

Across our sky

I wonder what the two of us in the future are looking at right now

I caught a glimpse during a blink

Anxiety

Clouded and hurt our two hearts

And the night sky peering in

Was frightening

Because tomorrow, I'll surely be

Falling in love with you again

Please don't let go, just like this

I want to wait for the dawn

Even if someone laughs and says it's just young love

Love will wrap us up so tightly

That we can't hear a thing

Forever and always

Look, right here, I'll prove that my love is you

And the sun nodded in agreement

Slowly

I want to show the world that eternity exists

We dream a new dream

Together

Begone, you cowards

Summer is a piece of jewelry

[Japanese]

唇に触れた瞬間

光が放った

初めて気付いたよ

夏はジュエリー

君以外に 何もない

この海 あの波

君の輝きには勝てない

今日で世界

動いてしまったよ きっと

そんな気がした

僕らの住む街で　一番

空に近い

場所に行こうよなんて

自転車 飛び乗ったら　あとは神様も

知らない

錆びついた車輪が

奏でる

ほらここで 愛は君だと証明するから

太陽が頷いた

ゆっくりと

ジリジリ ほてった身体を委ねて

恋は走り出すんだ

一瞬で

近い距離 愛に色が付いた

それなのに何処かで

寂しくなる

弱さが嫌だ

伸びる影は

手と手が

重なり

繋がる

流れ星は流れてこなかった

僕らの空

未来の2人は　今頃 何を見ているの

瞬いた隙を見た

不安は

曇った 2人の心を傷つけ

覗いてくる夜空が

怖かった

明日もきっと君と

恋するんだから

ずっと離さないで このまま

夜明け待ちたい

誰かが 若い恋だろうって 笑ったとして

愛が僕たち 包み込んで

何も聞こえない

いつまでも

ほらここで 愛は君だと証明するから

太陽が頷いた

ゆっくりと

永遠はあると見せつけたいんだ

新しい夢をみる

2人

弱虫 消えていけ

夏はジュエリー
