Lyrics and translation Akina Nakamori - 夜のどこかで

夜のどこかで

背中あわせの 嘘に気づくなんて
見ないふりして 無口になる毎日
誰のことも傷つけずに
生きてゆけるならいいけど
やさしさも 嘘に似てる
いつも自分がわからなくて独り
心をさらけだせたなら
星座に私なれないかな
見上げたら 風強くて
いまなら素顔に戻れるはず 夜の翼の中で
弱い気持ちすべてを
いまは頬にこぼせるわ
いまだけ素顔に戻れたなら
逢いたい人に気がつく
鼓動の高鳴り 安らぐまま
愛しいまま信じて
愛を覚えた最初の日はたしか
どんな迷いも 喜びだと感じた...
夜の広さに戸惑えば
星座が時を照らしてたの
見上げたら 風強くて
あなたの涙がこぼれたなら
残らず受け止めよう
熱い悲しみがいま 語る夢が聞こえるわ
あなたの涙が乾くまでは
弱い人のままでいい
明日になるまで
その痛みもその願いも眠って
背中あわせの 嘘に気づくなんて

Somewhere in the Night

I realized our backs were turned against each other, filled with lies
Pretending not to see, becoming taciturn every day
If I could live without hurting anyone
That would be fine
Even kindness resembles a lie
I'm always alone, wondering who I am
If I could bare my heart
Could I become a constellation?
When I look up, the wind is strong
Now I can return to my true self within the wings of the night
I can shed all my feeble emotions
On my cheeks for now
If I could only return to my true self for now
I would realize the person I want to meet
The pounding of my heart, I'll let it comfort me
Believing in my love
The first day I learned to love, I'm sure
I felt that my every doubt was a joy...
When I'm confused by the vastness of the night
The stars illuminate my way
When I look up, the wind is strong
If your tears were to fall
I would embrace them without reservation
Your burning sorrow tells me of your dreams
Until your tears have dried
I'll stay weak
Until tomorrow
Sleep on, your pain and your wishes
I realized our backs were turned against each other, filled with lies
