Japanese | English |
「失恋した」って泣く君の | As you cried, “I’m heartbroken,” |
手を引いて飛び乗った電車で | I took your hand and jumped into a train |
転がり込んだその街は | And that city we rolled into |
うるさいほど色に溢れてる | Was overflowing with glaring colors |
「失恋した」って泣く君は | You, who cried, “I’m heartbroken,” |
行き交う人には目もくれずに | Disregarded passers-by |
駆け出して組んだ | And raced to join Harajuku, |
原宿は私にゃ手に負えないなんて言うの | Saying it would be too much for me |
さあ、神様 どうか今だけ | Dear God, please, just this once |
勇気を出せない私を許してください | Forgive my timidity |
パンケーキが降ったって | Even if it rains pancakes, |
隕石が落っこちたって | Even if a meteor strikes, |
変わらない想いがあるの | I have feelings that will never change |
終電を逃したって | Even if I miss the last train, |
宇宙人を逃がしたって | Even if I lose an alien, |
分からない鼓動があるの | I have a heartbeat that will never make sense |
虹色を舌で溶かして歩く道 竹下通り | Rainbow colors melt on my tongue along this walkway, Takeshita Street |
渡りきるまで 間に合いますように | I pray that I will have crossed over in time |
君とこの街がモノクロになる前に | Before you and this city become monochrome |
誰かと繋いだ貴方の手に残る愛が | The lingering love in your hand that someone else used to hold |
眩しくて見れなくてさ | Shone too brightly for you to look at |
半分こ 持ってって言った | So you asked me to take half |
両手に余る服の山 | A heap of clothes too bulky for my arms |
分かる人に分かりゃいいのに | I wish someone who gets it would understand me |
悲しくなるんだこの心は | My heart is turning despondent |
私にゃ手に負えないな やっぱ | Maybe it’s too much for me after all |
パンケーキが降ったって | Even if it rains pancakes, |
隕石が落っこちたって | Even if a meteor strikes, |
変わらない想いがあるの | I have feelings that will never change |
代役だって分かっちゃって | Even if I’ve realized I’m a substitute, |
なんだか虚しくなったって | Even if I’ve come to feel somewhat empty, |
秘めてたい想いがあるの | I have feelings that I want to keep to myself |
虹色を舌で溶かして | Rainbow colors melt on my tongue, |
甘いもの 嫌いなのって | And I pray that I can tell you without pretense |
飾らぬままで告げられますように | That I hate sweets, |
君とこの街がモノクロになる前に | Before you and this city become monochrome |
渡りきるまで間に合いますように | I pray that I will have crossed over in time, |
君とこの街がモノクロになる前に | Before you and this city become monochrome |
渡りきるまで間に合いますように | I pray that I will have crossed over in time |
「私じゃダメかしら」 | To be able to say “Aren’t I good enough?” |
モノクロになる前に言えますように | Before becoming monochrome |
