Lamp – Kimi to Boku to no Sayonara ni (English Lyrics)

君とぼくとのさよならに
To Our Goodbye

Soaked in the same old morning sunlight
I wake in an apartment without you

Stars of daybreak swaying in pale blue
I shall go before they fade away

Afternoon rain over the skies of Tokyo
This city I so loved and yearned for

Noticing not even the passing afternoon raindrops
The two of us always so lost in our own world
In the blink of an eye a shower of melodies
Singing songs of days never to return
Forever and ever dreaming the same dream

Sensing the smell of an unfamiliar wind
The sky overcast like my heart

Even the street we always used to walk
Enveloped in a rain so warm

Breeze-scented cityscape growing distant
Blurred by the afternoon rain

Your left hand begins to slip from mine
As if time itself were about to stop

A season much too long
Out of reach, in the depths of sleep
Always drowning, and when I look back
The wind disappears, the street disappears
As I keep on waiting for an unaddressed letter
Days, nights, even through the pale blue mornings

soraya – Kaze no Naka de (English Lyrics)

風の中で
Within the Wind

On this untouched ground
I’ve brought the morning time and time again
I am the sun — you are an unfolding melody

The sky yearns for everlasting love
And yet why are we forever at war?
My wistfully written love letter
By the window with flower petals by its side
Even some dandelion fluff…

Making a wish within the wind
Hoping that somehow, somewhere
I might meet your eyes once more

As this untouched ground
Passes through the night time and time again
I realize this must be love, tears shimmering
You sowing seeds in my hollowed-out heart
The shivering roots of your dreams — the base an unfolding melody

You start running
But then you stop
What is it you wish for?

“I’m home.” “Welcome home.”
Words and music, always there to receive you
We are all connected

On this untouched ground
We now leave behind our footprints
The shivering roots of your eyes — turn those tears around
As you begin unfolding into the wind

Within the wind…

Imai Miki – Caribbean Blue no Yoake (English Lyrics)

カリビアン・ブルーの夜明け
Caribbean Blue Sunrise

At the bottom of a neon ocean
The two of us meet…
Fire in my heart
Fire in my heart

A beautiful case of mistaken identity
Night that lingers on…
Flash the party light
Flash the party light

Brushed aside the palm leaves only to see
Mermaid begging for the next cheek-to-cheek
But more than her, I want it to be me
Making ripples in the cove of your heart

I’m a hurricane
Feelings crashing ashore
If they’re not going to stop
Then even risqué seduction
Suddenly becomes justified

Just a hurricane
Keep your eyes on me
For I’m coming to your side
Raise your glass — let’s make a toast
This cocktail’s called Caribbean Sunrise

Snuck away with you
Onto the rooftop…
Fire in my heart
Fire in my heart

Saying I’d just stolen them
Beer glasses & wine…
Kiss a smilin’ face
Kiss a smilin’ face

No asking about the past — that’s the rule
Once you fall in love, the heart is an island
Even if you already have someone special
I want to burn this moment into memory

I’m a hurricane
Pulling you in
This love is a storm
Even if it takes everything
Then so be it

Just a hurricane
Hang on tight
Hold on to the thrill
For only in the arms of the one you love
Will the night turn to a Caribbean Sunrise

Uwanosora – Blue to Odotte (English Lyrics)

ブルーと踊って
Dance With Blue

Blue is what we called her
Her nickname was Blue
That’s all we knew

With her sweet and cute looks
Most of the guys were in love
Lost in her innocent eyes

Suddenly, Blue said to me
“Let’s go for a drive!”
And so we drove to the beach
Under the breaking moon

Reaching into my pocket
Blue and I made a bet
We would flip a coin
Heads — we see how the dream ends
Tails — we say goodbye

I’m sure Blue already knew
Though she acted so casual and carefree
She always kept her sadness hidden

Not telling a soul
Where she was headed
Blue was gone
Even though the coin
Had come up heads

Caught by the wind
We ran naked and free
In the shallow waters
On that airport beach
I was dancing with Blue
That summer without a doubt
We were dancing

Waves drawing near
I held her close
As the night
Softly turned to day
