Lyrics and translation Shinji Tanimura - Tookude Kitekiwo Kikinagara




Tookude Kitekiwo Kikinagara
Listening to Distant Train Whistles
悩み続けた日々が
The days I spent wrestling with worry,
まるで嘘のように
Are like a lie to me now,
忘れられる時が来るまで
Until such time as I'm able to forget,
心を閉じたまま
I'll continue to keep my heart closed,
暮らして行こう
And live my life that way.
遠くで汽笛を聞きながら
Listening to distant train whistles,
何もいいことがなかったこの街で
In this city where nothing good has ever happened.
俺を見捨てたひとを
Rather than live my life resenting,
恨んで生きるより
The person who abandoned me,
幼い心に秘めたむなしい
I would rather seek out a place,
涙の捨て場所
To shed the futile tears,
さがしてみたい
Hidden away in my childish heart.
遠くで汽笛を聞きながら
Listening to distant train whistles,
何もいいことがなかったこの街で
In this city where nothing good has ever happened.
せめて一夜の夢と
Even if it's just a dream for a night,
泣いて泣き明かして
I'll spend it weeping and crying,
自分の言葉に嘘はつくまい
I'll not lie to myself,
ひとを裏切るまい
I'll not betray anyone,
生きて行きたい
That's how I want to live my life.
遠くで汽笛を聞きながら
Listening to distant train whistles,
何もいいことがなかったこの街で
In this city where nothing good has ever happened.
