246:3AM

午前3時のカフェテリアは
誰も居ないミッドナイトー・ブルー
髪を染めた貴女と
とまどう間もない出逢いの
語る言葉さがし
息をつめて見つめた

あれは確か19だったよね 西陽強いアパート
膝が抜けたジーンズひとつと ギターと
愛に気付くひまもないほど せっかちに求め合い
暮らしてた短い夏
苦しいほど 想い出されて来たんだよ

こんな夜更けに独りきりの
わけを聞いてみても
多分僕と同じさ
横顔には夢の名残り
もしも深く問えば
傷つけてしまうだろう
テイク・アウトのピッザ受け取る 貴女はほんのわずか
頬を染めて恥じらうみたいに 僕を見た
そこだけ変らずに大きな 目には涙溜めて
抱きかかえて 幸せかと
たずねたい想い かみしめてこらえてたよ

あれは夏の終り頃だね 汗ばむ愛のあとで
不意に醒めた想いを感じて 見つめ合い
やがて旅に出かけ それきり なんとなしに別れて
痛みさえも 笑えたほど
鮮やかに若い 若すぎたふたりだったね

246:3AM

My dear, at three in the morning
In the cafeteria, bathed in a midnight blue
With you, your hair freshly dyed
In the moment of our encounter, without any hesitation
Searching for words to say
I held my breath and gazed at you

It was 19, wasn't it? In that apartment with the blazing sunset
Just a pair of faded jeans, my guitar and I
Too hasty to notice the love blooming between us
We spent that fleeting summer together
It's the memories that hurt the most

On this late night, all alone
If I asked you why
Maybe it's the same for me
The lingering traces of a dream in your profile
If I dared to probe deeper
I might end up hurting you
You, receiving your pizza to go, paused for a moment
Your cheeks flushed, your gaze shy as you looked at me
Only your eyes, still unchanged, held back tears
I wanted to hold you close and ask
If you were happy, but I swallowed my words

Towards the end of that summer, after the heat of our passion cooled
I suddenly awakened to my true feelings as our eyes met
You left on a journey and that was the last I saw of you
I could almost laugh at the pain
We were young and foolish
