wake up kiss 幼(おさな)い頃(ころ)きいた story(はなし)なら
A waking kiss—if it's a story I heard as a child
目覚(めざ)めたら出会(であ)える 一番(いちばん)大切(たいせつ)な人(ひと)
I'll wake and meet the person most precious to me
夕暮(ゆうぐ)れの風(かぜ)と紅(あか)く染(そ)まる街(まち)並(なみ)
The evening wind, the streets dyed red
何(なに)かを思(おも)い出(だ)させる切(せつ)ない景色(けしき)
A wistful scene that makes me remember something
 
 
君(きみ)に触(ふ)れた時(とき) 未来(みらい)がみたくなった
When I touch you, I start wanting to see the future
あの日(ひ)の続(つづ)きを まだ彷徨(さまよ)うよう
As if I'm still wandering around, carrying on from that day
上空(じょうくう)、舞(ま)う者(もの)達(たち)よ 地上(ちじょう)は現在(いま)
Winged creatures soaring high above, and the earth here now—
素晴(すば)らしい ‘碧(あお)’に輝(かがや)いてる?
Is it shining with a beautiful “blue”?
 
 
tell me something tell me something
Tell me something, tell me something
君(きみ)の声(こえ)を聞(き)かせて
Let me hear your voice
笑(わら)えるのも哀(かな)しむのも人(ひと)が人(ひと)であるから
We laugh and we feel sad because we're human
tell me something tell me something
Tell me something, tell me something
今日(きょう)と明日(あす)をつないでる
Let's search for something
何(なに)かを ねぇ さがしにゆこう いつか出会(であ)えるから
That joins today and tomorrow; someday we'll find it
 
 
どこかで もしもあの時(とき)... なんて事(こと)ばかり
I keep thinking, “If only back then…”
都合(つごう)イイ夢見(ゆめみ)てる ツマラナイ癖(くせ)だよね
Dreaming only of what I want is such a dull habit
毎日(まいにち)ただ過(す)ぎて行(ゆ)くだけじゃ 変(か)われなくて
If I let the days pass without doing a thing, nothing will change
いつまでも君(きみ)を想(おも)う気持(きも)ちが消(け)せない
I can't erase my longing for you
 
 
上手(うま)く話(はな)せなくて いつもは笑(わら)えなくて
I'm not good with words, and I can't always smile
それでも願(ねが)えば 叶(かな)うものと
Even so, I thought a wish alone would make it come true
そうだ 幼(おさな)さに似(に)た 無邪気(むじゃき)さは
Yes, that almost childish innocence
懐(なつ)かしい ‘空(そら)’ で繋(つな)がってる
Is connected by a nostalgic “sky”
 
 
tell me something tell me something
Tell me something, tell me something
君(きみ)の声(こえ)を聞(き)かせて
Let me hear your voice
寂(さび)しがりも分(わ)かり合(あ)うも人(ひと)が人(ひと)であるから
We feel lonely and understand each other because we're human
tell me something tell me something
Tell me something, tell me something
緑(みどり)揺(ゆ)らぐこの丘(おか)で
On this green, swaying hill
見(み)つけたもの消(き)えた今(いま)も 風(かぜ)は通(とお)り抜(ぬ)ける
Even though what we found has vanished, the wind still blows through
 
 
tell me something tell me something
Tell me something, tell me something
君(きみ)の声(こえ)を聞(き)かせて
Let me hear your voice
笑(わら)えるのも哀(かな)しむのも人(ひと)が人(ひと)であるから
We laugh and we feel sad because we're human
tell me something tell me something
Tell me something, tell me something
今日(きょう)と明日(あす)をつないでる
Let's search for something
何(なに)かを ねぇ さがしにゆこう いつか出会(であ)えるから
That joins today and tomorrow; someday we'll find it
 
 
‘想(おも)い’はきっと帰(かえ)る場所(ばしょ)持(も)たずに
“Longing” surely has nowhere to return to
育(そだ)ってゆくんだって
Yet it keeps on growing
もう次(つぎ)の夏(なつ)が来(く)るよ...
The next summer is coming again…
