Текст и перевод песни AL - 15の夏

15の夏

バンドなんて組むもんじゃないと思った
結局どいつもこいつも俺 俺 俺 俺
初恋のあの子に声すらかけられずにいたのに
生涯の愛を歌った 15の夏

数多くの英雄が来ては去って来ては去った
今、思えば取り消したいような人にも憧れた
信仰が邪魔してグレそこねてはぐれてしまった
見送るように過ぎた 15の夏

それでも俺は最高で 部屋に一大帝国を築いた
ずっとずっとあれよりいい安心なんかないはずだったぜ
Baby Baby 君と会うまでそうだった
これを歌っていたんだね 15の夏

あいつんちは川向かいの工場
蒸せるようなトタンの屋根の下
怖い親父に いないオフクロ
構ってほしがるあいつの妹
古いゲームに小さな画面と
リコーダーと泣き声の中
「遠慮せんで」と言われて
初めてギターケースを開けたっけな
喜んでくれるあいつの妹
これさえ弾けば 気分は上々
キザな台詞をギターに乗せた
今は ただ君のために

Baby Baby 今はただ 君のために
Baby Baby 今はただ 君のために
Baby Baby 今はただ 君のために
これを歌っていたんだね 15の夏

やあイエス 久しぶりですね
あなたに委ねていたんだ あの頃はそうだった
あの頃は信じた あなたを信じてた
あの時間はなんだったんだよ 15の夏

もう単純なんかじゃなくなって
手を伸ばし損と分かっちゃって
自分の得体が死ぬほど知れて
その日暮らしに体が慣れて
好きな人に嘘を吐かせ続け
罪の意識に目を背け続け
期待すら懐かしい朝が来て
卑屈な道化に成り果てても

Baby Baby 今はただ君のために
Baby Baby 今はただ ただ君のために
Baby Baby 今はただ君のために
この曲を歌うよ 「15の夏」

The Summer of 15

I never thought I'd start a band, it's not my thing
After all, all they care about is themselves
I couldn't even talk to the girl I had a crush on
The summer I was 15, I wrote a song about my love for her

Countless heroes have appeared and disappeared
Thinking back, there were people I admired that I wish I hadn't
My faith kept me from going off the rails, but I lost my way
The summer I was 15, I watched them pass me by

But I had my own world, my own empire in my room
I thought there was nothing better than that
Darling, until I met you, that's how I felt
That's who I was singing about the summer I was 15

His house was across the river, in a factory
Under the scorching metal roof
A fearsome father, an absent mother
His little sister always wanting attention
With old games, a small screen
Amidst the sound of recorders and crying
He told me, "Don't be shy, go ahead"
That was the first time I opened a guitar case
His little sister was so happy
As long as I played, I was on top of the world
I sang corny lines accompanied by my guitar
But now, I only play for you

Darling, now I only play for you
Darling, now I only play for you
Darling, now I only play for you
That's who I was singing about the summer I was 15

Hey Jesus, it's been a long time
I left everything to you back then
Back then I believed in you, I had faith in you
What was the point of it all, the summer I was 15?

I'm not so naive anymore
I know I'll never reach the stars
I've learned to accept myself, for better or for worse
I've gotten used to living day by day
I've made my loved ones lie for me
I've turned a blind eye to my own guilt
Now I long for the days when I still had hope
Even if I've become a pitiful clown

Darling, now I only play for you
Darling, now I only play, only for you
Darling, now I only play for you
This song is for you, "The Summer of 15"
