YUI - Summer Song

YUI - Summer Song
Translation by: Lisa

the sun is on my side
because you’re suntanned and wave your hand
I’m anticipating
plunging into the promised season, like a mermaid

at the corner of the school building, sunflowers bloom
it’s not cool to keep being shy
I’m thinking of you to the point
that I want to yell at the blue sky

summer is coming, so let’s go to the ocean
even though there are days where you’re stopped for a moment, lost

*days to make up for depressing days
meeting you, laughing together
summer break is starting*

you started running
unlying feelings are reflected on your back
beyond your T-shirt, glittering
like magic

drowned out in the sound of fireworks
your words become the night wind
I can’t hear the important parts,
but it seems like they’re understood

Ah long long long time
the days of youth that I longed for
are just a bit mean to me

*repeat*

sitting down on the sandy beach
the two of us minded our watches
while listening to the sound of waves
being unable to make promises or anything

I get nostalgic
one day, for sure
we can’t rely on a future written in sand

*repeat*

“it’s a blazing red blue”

summer is coming, so we’ve come to the ocean
I don’t want to forget the sky that turned into a rainbow

*repeat*
