5 P.M at dusk in Shisaibashi,
Walking aimlessly under the arcade
Sunlight filtering through the gaps between buildings,
like our interrupted conversation
I don't want to go
the whole 500 kilometers separating you and me
I'm scared that even our hearts would grow apart
I want to take you home with your hand in mine
but I'm still too inexperienced
to move the reality lying ahead
二人を遠ざける合図のように
接近メロディが鳴り響く
大阪の動脈に飛び乗り
細胞になって流れてゆく
Like a signal pulling us apart,
the melody that signals the train's approaching resounds
Jumping onto the arteries of Osaka,
becoming cells in it and flowing away
A lot of people get off at Umeda
Right after we take the two seats that have become empty,
comes the announcement,
"The next stop of this train is Nakamatsu."
「新大阪まで行かへんなあ」
悪戯な顔で君が笑う
"It won't go to Shin-Osaka huh?"
You laugh mischievously
Just a bit more but we can't cross it,
this vexing distance,
stuck in hesitation, just like my feelings
I still lack the confidence
in the scenery that lies beyond the point
where the temporary terminal has been cleared away
Once we sit on a round bench,
we're inside our own air pocket
The sounds of the trains and the crowd all disappear
Much like this train station, which, before I knew it, I hardly recognized,
I'd have to change, too.
"I don't want to go home"
The goodbye train comes
as if to drown my selfish wish in sounds
"I know, but…"
I don't want you to make that sad forced smile
I don't want you to, anymore.
地下から出た電車みたいに
気持ちは向こう岸に届くかな
淀川に夕陽が滲む
Like the train emerging from the underground,
will my feelings reach the other shore?
The Yodogawa river is blurred by the evening sun.
"Hey, will you stay by my side until I die?"
Only cliched words come out of my mouth
With a mischievous smile, you replied,
"I will protect you, until the true end."
