黄昏の街角 君にダイアルする
On the street corner at dusk, I dial your number
返事はテープの声 むなしくもどかしい
The reply is a voice on tape, empty and frustrating
夕辺別れる時v君はささやいたね
When we part at sunset, you whispered to me
今日の続きをv明日に生かしてと
To take today's continuation and live it tomorrow
年上の人だけど せつない瞳で僕を見る
Though you're older than me, you look at me with longing eyes
言葉を選ぶ度 はにかんですねてる
As I choose my words, I shyly smile
I don't know why 君の気持
I don't know why, your feelings
誰よりつかめたはずと
I should have been able to grasp them better than anyone

But on the way back, the freeway
流星を飛ばすのさ
I'll send shooting stars flying
一人でいられない 僕は君を探す
I can't be alone, I'm searching for you
いつか教えてくれた 秘密の 19 century bar
Someday you told me about a secret, the 19 century bar
店の奥の隅で ドアに背中を向け
In the back corner of the shop, with my back to the door
Glass 見つめて 濡らしたその瞳
Staring at the glass, your wet eyes
年上の人だけど 危い愛感じるよ

For you, who hesitates, the city lights start to fade

Though you're older than me, you look at me with those aching eyes.
