Paroles et traduction 石川智晶 - Blue Velvet

Blue Velvet

あなたが大事にしてた
青い膝かけがここにある
今夜こうして幼子のように抱きしめて眠るのよ
ねえいいでしょ?
あなたは私の前ではいつも疲れていた気がする
だから私はいい子でいるしかなかったけど
それはもういいの

My blue velvet
小さな灯りの暮らしの中で窓打つ雨眺めながら
そう あなたがすべてだった

あの日のあなたと同じ歳になって初めて知る
鏡台の上飾ってた写真
いつも伏せたままになっていたけど
自分を救えるものは最後は私だけなんだと
言い聞かせてはどこかで過去を信じ続けていた横顔

MY blue velvet
生きているうちにこの世に何か残そうとしなくてもいい
‥Yes そう微笑うあなたがいた

Blue Velvet

That blue bedspread you cherished so much
Is here with me tonight
Tonight I'll hold it close and sleep like a child
Is that okay with you?
I always felt like you were always tired around me
So I had no choice but to be a good girl
But that's all over now

My blue velvet
In this small, dimly lit world, I watch the rain fall through the window
Yes, you were my everything

Now I'm the same age you were that day, and I finally understand
The picture frame on the dresser
That you always kept face down
That in the end, the only one who can save me is myself
I kept telling myself that, but somewhere deep down, I still clung to the past. My face in the mirror

MY blue velvet
In life, you don't have to leave something behind
...Yes, that's what you would say with a smile
