青写真

思い出は いつだって
セピアなんかじゃない

久し振りに なつかしい友達(ヒト)と
深夜まで長電話はしゃいで
じゃあまたねと
宛ない約束
飛び出した思い出が
しまえない

別れて正解だったアイツは
今頃どうしてるかな
好きと言えず眺めてた
あの人 幸せかな

もうさわれない
思い出は鮮やかに
あの場所で生きてる

他の誰にも見せられないケド
心の奥浮んだ景色を
同じように
感じる人とは
この先も時をずっと
重ねたい

アルバムに残っている写真は
ゆっくり薄れてくけど
デジタルさえ かなわない
色使い眩しいほど

時に切なく
思い出は それだけで
何か伝えてくる

忘れかけてた あの頃
不思議ね
なんだか手が届きそう
忘れたかった日々さえ
どこかで眠っていた

時に切なく
思い出は鮮やかに
あの場所で生きてる

思い出は いつだって
セピアなんかじゃない

Blueprint

Memories are always
Anything but sepia-toned

For the first time in a while, with a dear old friend,
Chatting passionately on a late-night call,
With an idle promise of,
「Let's do it again, sometime」,
That memory came flooding back
And I couldn't hold it back

Was it right to leave them?
I wonder how they're doing right now.
My feelings unsaid, I watched them from afar.
Are they happy, I wonder?

I can't touch them anymore,
But my memories are vivid,
Still living there in that place.

It's a view into my heart that I can't show anyone else,
But if there's someone who can feel
The same way about it,
Then even as time passes,
I'd like to continue
Building on it.

The photos in my album
Are slowly fading away,
But even digital can't compare
To the vivid hues of my memories.

Sometimes painful,
My memories alone
Bring me messages.

Back when I'd almost forgotten,
Memories return to me.
I feel like I could almost reach out and touch them.
Even the days I tried to forget
Were sleeping somewhere inside me.

Sometimes painful,
My memories are vivid,
Still living there in that place.

Memories are always
Anything but sepia-toned
