春景色
Scenes of Spring
Waiting for you on the platform, I see the distant ocean
On the Kobe Line, enticed by a tranquil spring breeze
You look a little shy in your navy blue collared jacket
It’s making me nervous — usually you’re so brazen
Sounds of the train; hurried confusion
“Guess we got a bit carried away”
Me not answering, you worriedly glance at me
After the graduation ceremony, once spring break ends
I’ll be a year above you in April
It’s not that I’m angry, falling silent like this…
I was only thinking about the passing of the seasons
Going up the hill and looking down, see the reflections of those ships?
This town, always enveloping me in its kind embrace
Even as we eat our gelatos you still seem down
You’re thinking, “she just doesn’t like me”
Being the fool that you are
“Island Cafe”
That starry highway
The party we had together
It’s not like the memories will just disappear
Having said goodbye to my school uniform, getting off at a different station
I’ll be a year above you in April
One of these days it might not be like this anymore…
But for now, I just want to be spoiled by this gentle sunlight
It’s not that I’m angry, falling silent like this…
I was only thinking about the passing of the seasons
