natsu no yuuutsu

Summer Melancholy

natsu no yuuutsu ni dakare nemuri wo wasureta boku wa
yureru namiuchigiwa ni hitomi ubaware hoozue wo tsuku
kimi ga hohoemikakeru soyogu kaze ni fukarete
sonna sugisatta hi no maboroshi wo oikaketeita

Summer melancholy has me in its grip
with sleep nothing but a memory
Waves lapped at the water's edge
and I couldn't tear my eyes away
as you smiled at me,
resting your chin in your hand
Those days are long gone,
carried away by the wind
But I was still chasing that fantasy

boku wo ukabiageru taiyou ga amari ni mabushisugite...
natsu no yuuutsu wa kimi wo miushinatta boku ni furitsumoru

It's far too bright under the sun
I can't hide anymore
And now that you're gone,
summer melancholy weighs heavy on my heart

dare mo todokanai sora wo oyogu ano tori no you ni
kimi wa suashi no mama de nokori wazuka na natsu ni kieta

Just like the birds,
swimming through the sky
so far out of reach
You were still barefoot as you vanished
into the remnants of the summer

boku wo ukabiageru taiyou mo tasogare hajimeteiru
natsu no yuuutsu...
a, mou ikanakucha aki ga kuru kara

Even though I couldn't hide under the sun
I know that dusk will fall soon
Summer melancholy...
I guess it's time to go
because autumn's nearly here

soshite nemuri wo nakushita
soshite anata wo nakushita
a, nani wo shinjitearukeba ii no?
boku ni furitsumoru natsu no yuuutsu

And I've lost sleep
And I've lost you
Oh, I don't know what to believe in anymore
This summer melancholy
weighs heavy on my heart
