くもり硝子の向うは 風の街
Beyond the cloudy glass lies a city of winds,
問わず語りの 心が切ないね
The unspoken tales weigh heavy on my heart,
枯葉ひとつの 重さもない命
A life with the weight of just a single fallen leaf,
あなたを失ってから
Since the moment I lost you,
背中を丸めながら
Hunched over, I carry this burden,
指のリング抜きとったね
You took off the ring from your finger,
俺に返すつもりならば
If you meant to return it to me,
捨ててくれ
Then please just toss it away,

Beyond the cloudy glass lies a town of wind
さめた紅茶が 残ったテーブルで
On the table, the cold tea remains
襟を合わせて 日暮れの人波に
Adjusting my collar, amidst the crowd at dusk
まぎれるあなたを見てた
I watched you blending in
そして二年の月日が 流れ去り
And two years have slipped away,
街でベージュのコートを 見かけると
When I spot a beige coat in the town,
指にルビーのリングを 探すのさ
I search for a ruby ring on my finger,
あなたを失ってから
Since I lost you.

And two years have slipped away,
街でベージュのコートを 見かけると
When I spot a beige coat in the town,
指にルビーのリングを 探すのさ
I search for a ruby ring on my finger,
あなたを失ってから
Since I lost you.
