Summer Story

Lyrics: Yuujin Kitagawa
Composition: Yuujin Kitagawa & Kouichi Tsutaya

I can see it from Rinko Park, shining beyond the Bay Bridge
You and our unfulfilled promises. I'll wave my hand over and over

The red bricks shined on in orange, they connect my memories
It's like I've time slipped. Your profile shows so vividly

The seasons changing, I wonder what my memories will become now of all times?
"Let's go home" "I don't wanna go home" But things are passing by, those days passing to someone else

Farewell, couple who blamed it on summer, future we ran off to without looking back
I'd realized I didn't need a happy end or eternity. The magic breaks
Even while confused like a first love, whenever we touch one another I start not wanting to separate
The sky growing dark, a painful chorus of cicadas

A summer story narrating the two of us. I recall your colors, but just go back and forth
I wanna see you so much I wanna cry. 4, 6, 7 nights counting 1, 2, 3 (shameless)1

A Ferris wheel etching time, soundless fireworks, alone at the crossing waiting for the traffic light
It's right here - the reality of us walking side by side. It's impossible, it's indelible

Change of heart. I'm questioning even now. I wonder what you would say
There's no way you'll be at the place we'd meet once. The last train won't come anymore either

If I could've said, "Thank you" without hesitating...If I could've met you looking like nothing happened...
I'd believe in lucky colors and zodiac signs and even the fortune-telling I hate
The scent of the sea breeze and you mix, and whenever I think of you looking happy whenever you smile
My feelings waver. I wish but it's in vain

The familiar townscape keeps changing too
But when I close my eyes even now, the two of those days are right there

I let go of the hand I held. It was painful...even your kindness snuggling up to me
"I'll always be by your side," you said spreading both hands. If I could have jumped in...

Farewell, couple who blamed it on summer, future we ran off to without looking back
I'd realized I didn't need a happy end or eternity. The magic breaks
Even while confused like a first love, whenever we touch one another I start not wanting to separate
The sky growing dark, a painful chorus of cicadas

A summer story narrating the two of us. I recall your colors, but just go back and forth
I wanna see you so much I wanna cry. 4, 6, 7 nights counting 1, 2, 3 (shameless)1

I can see it from Rinko Park, shining beyond the Bay Bridge
You and our unfulfilled promises. I'll wave my hand for the last time

* [1] - this is taken from the Eight Virtues of Confucianism. The final "haji (shame)" is missing, so this line can also be read as "shameless"
