Lyrics and translation Yuko Ando - 隣人に光が差すとき

隣人に光が差すとき

あなたの斜め後ろの角を辿り
友達としゃべる 見ないように...。
ただ憧れて 光の差すあなたを
奪い去りたいとさえ思っていた。
息も吐けず眺めるだけで アタシジャタリナイ
その場所に似合わないから
やわすぎた私は 人混みの中埋もれ
光の差すあなたを見てた
輝けるあなたの 斜め後ろを辿り
こぼれる光に手をのばす
Ha... Fu...
あなたの歌を聴かないように
耳をふさげば良かった 見ないように...。
息も吐けず眺めるだけで 涙が落ちる
目が離せなくって はああ
立ちつくす私は 流れる人に押され
倒れるように膝をついた
誰独り埋もれた 私のこと気付かず
光の差すあなたを見てた
アナタニナリタイコレジャタリナイ アナタニナリタイコレジャタリナイ
やわすぎた私は 人混みの中埋もれ
光の差すあなたを見てた
輝けるあなたの 斜め後ろを辿り
追いかけて走る 掴めるように
Ha... Fu...

When the Light Shines on My Neighbor

I trace the corners of your oblique back,
Chatting with friends... trying not to look.
I just admired you, the one where the light shone,
And even thought I wanted to take it away.
I can't breathe, I just gaze, I'm not enough
Because I don't belong in that place,
I, who was too soft, was swallowed by the crowd,
Watching you where the light shone.
I trace the oblique back of you who can shine,
And reach out my hand to the overflowing light.
Ha... Fu...
I should have covered my ears
So I wouldn't hear your song... trying not to look.
I can't breathe, I just gaze, tears falling,
I can't take my eyes off you, aah
I, who stood still, was pushed by the flowing crowd,
And fell to my knees.
No one noticed me, buried in myself,
Watching you where the light shone.
I want to be you, this is not enough, I want to be you, this is not enough,
I, who was too soft, was swallowed by the crowd,
Watching you where the light shone.
I trace the oblique back of you who can shine,
Chasing and running, so I can grab hold
Ha... Fu...
