Summer Days

Lyrics & Composition: Ketsumeishi

Summer meetings, mistakes, the selfish heat
I should've hated them all, yet they're holding me back
When the wind gets colder day by day
I look back on the summer day at dusk
day by day summer day

The setting sun dyes us in red
We can hear the voices of the cicadas announcing the end again
The sunlight blazing down and a midsummer drama
It's almost over now. It's time. It's the closure
It's a season way too hot to handle
but when we miss even it, will we run away?
It's selfish. Even the busy beach
is such a lonely sight now
When it gets late, we miss the sunlight
When it's winter, we long for summer again
The inviting twilight makes us aware of the end of summer
We're just played with by the perplexing season
Our feelings for summer will eventually well up
but it'll be too late to feel them after they've passed
What can I add to the memories of this season?
What should I add to? That's it, "Thank you"

Under the clear summer sky
As the autumn wind begins to blow
Let's give thanks together to the end of summer
Next year again, no, the year after too

Under the clear summer sky
As the autumn wind begins to blow
Let's give thanks together to the end of summer
Next year again, no, the year after too

Just a bit left for the intense heat
The seasons change and summer leaves again
Wanting company, dyed in twilight
Next to us too is the end of summer
We'll miss the days we can say, "It's so hot"
We've forgotten the heat whenever the autumn breeze dances
The sky clears when the rainy season ends
but we can't meet that excitement unless we get through winter
Please be hot again next summer
Enduring in our own way, we'll calm down in the heat too
We just don't need it to be half-assed
Sunflowers nod softly, in late bloom
A festival this year too, fireworks, the sea and mountains and rivers
Leaving behind lots of memories. All sorts of summers
Really giving all the thanks we have
Let's meet here again next year too

Under the clear summer sky
As the autumn wind begins to blow
Let's give thanks together to the end of summer
Next year again, no, the year after too

Under the clear summer sky
As the autumn wind begins to blow
Let's give thanks together to the end of summer
Next year again, no, the year after too

It's summer, so I hope we can make a huge uproar
I hope we don't lose to the fast-paced summer
Making noise as much as we can, nighttime uneasiness
Getting excited, an uproar night after night
Staying awake even if tired, we get carried away
and crazy about it, but why did our hearts float
so painfully in the air? We ask summer
Twilight, shadows stretch beyond our backs
Every year, unaware, we wait impatiently for summer
The more we wait, the more we're teased by the rainy season
and when it comes, we get stirred up by summer
and when it leaves, it's somehow painful
It's what summer's taught us
so endlessly, so much it sinks deep into our minds
I'm thankful to a summer like that, again
big up summer day

Summer meetings, mistakes, the selfish heat
I should've hated them all, yet they're holding me back
When the wind gets colder day by day
I look back on the summer day at dusk
day by day summer day

Summer meetings, mistakes, the selfish heat
I should've hated them all, yet they're holding me back
When the wind gets colder day by day
I look back on the summer day at dusk
day by day summer day

day by day summer day
day by day summer day
Summer Days
