Lyrics and translation Masayoshi Yamazaki - Kagerou

Kagerou

雨上がりのアスファルトの道端に花が咲いてる
たどり着いたその場所で 風に身を任す様に
踏切の向こうでカゲロウが揺れている

もしここで生まれていたなら どんな僕になってただろう
港を出て行く船を 国道のずっとその先を
切ない気持で見つめていたのだろうか

ここにある喜びと悲しみに触れたら
今より素直になれるかな

歩道橋の下の線路を夕暮れの列車が過ぎる
どこかの街の海辺を 夜を照らす月の下を
家路につく人 旅立つ人達を乗せて

それぞれが描いてる幸せの形
今無性に君に会いたい

何かを置き去りにしたまま時は季節と共に行く
かつて抱いた憧れ 幻の様な夏の日々
一人で佇むいつかの僕を残して

Heat Haze

On the asphalt by the roadside after the rain, flowers are in bloom
At the place where I finally arrived, I let the wind take me in
On the other side of the level crossing, heat haze is shimmering

If I had been born here, what kind of person would I have become?
Watching the ships leaving the harbor and beyond into the distance
With a wistful feeling

If I were to come into contact with the joy and sorrow that exists here
Perhaps I could become more honest

Under the footbridge, the evening train passes by on the tracks
Somewhere by the sea, under the moon illuminating the night
It carries those heading home and those setting off on journeys

Every person has their own idea of what happiness is
Right now, I have an overwhelming urge to see you

Leaving things behind, time passes with the changing seasons
Former aspirations, summer days that are like a mirage
Leaving behind the me who once stood alone
