Lyrics and translation Aoi Teshima - NOMAD




NOMAD
NOMAD
流れる車窓から
As the cars pass by
遠く街の灯が揺れる
I watch the city lights flicker in the distance
名もなき列車と
With only an unnamed train
あてなく旅ゆく
I travel aimlessly
悲しき運命
A sad fate
流れ流れて
Drifting and flowing
明日は風の中
Tomorrow I'll be in the wind
歌を誰かの
I sing for someone
夢に替えながら
I turn their dreams into songs
ときめく出会いも
I've had dazzling encounters
やさしい愛の言葉も
And heard sweet words of love
一夜のまぼろし
But they're all just illusions for a night
薄荷の煙草の
Like the smoke from a menthol cigarette
けむりに溶けた
Vanished
流れ流れて
Drifting and flowing
明日は風の中
Tomorrow I'll be in the wind
歌を酒場の
I sing in the bars
花に替えながら
I turn the flowers into songs
歌をナイフに
I use my songs as a knife
歌を薬に
I use my songs as medicine
心にしのばせて
I keep them hidden in my heart
孤独を裂いて
Using them to tear through my loneliness
傷を癒して
To heal my wounds
気づけばまたひとり
And when I realize, I'm alone once more
風にまかせて
At the mercy of the wind
明日はどの街へ
Tomorrow which city will I go to?
歌を誰かの
I sing for someone
夢に替えながら
I turn their dreams into songs
