熱っぽい夢を見てしまって
I had a feverish dream, you see,
君のその笑顔で絆された夕暮れ
That sunset, captured by your smile,
この想い気の迷いだって
These feelings, just a whim they seem,
笑えないよ全然
I can't laugh at all, not even slightly.
袖が触れてしまった
Our sleeves brushed against each other,
走り出したハートを攫って
My racing heart has been stolen away,
繋いでいけビートの端くれ
Let's keep this connection, a beat’s edge,
薫る胸に火を灯せ
Light a fire in the chest that's fragrant,
踊り明かそう朝まで
Let’s dance until dawn breaks,
しなり揺れるランウェイの先へ
To the bending and swaying at the end of the runway.
僕の心連れてってくれ
Take my heart with you
触れていたい 揺れていたい
I want to touch and sway
君じゃないといけない この惑い
It has to be you, this bewilderment
今だんだん恋になっていく
Now slowly turning into love
ときめいていく
My heart's racing
思いがけぬとんだランデブー
An unexpected sudden rendezvous
どんどんハイになっていく
I'm getting higher and higher
洒落込んでいく
Getting lost in the charm
甘い罠にやられていく
Falling for your sweet trap
落ちていく 落ちていく
I'm falling, I'm falling
落ちていく
Falling down
いつかの偶然 (いつかの偶然)
A chance encounter from long ago (a chance encounter from long ago)
確かめたいね (確かめたいね)
I want to confirm it, yeah (I want to confirm it, yeah)

I want to unravel it

An unexplored mystery
(気づかないグラビティー)
(Unnoticed gravity)
元のように (元のように)
Like we used to (like we used to)
戻れないね (戻れないね)
We can't go back, no (we can't go back, no)
どっか行こうぜ 冗談みたいに

(背反のアイロニー)
(The irony of contradiction)
それは一つのコメディ
It's a kind of comedy,
または二つのトラジディ
Or maybe two tragedies.
どちらでも構わない
Either way, I don't mind,
君と二人ならば
As long as it's just us two.
それは一時のクレイジー
It's a moment of crazy,
揺り返してくサニティ
Rocking back the sanity.
何もかもがいつの間にか
Everything before I knew it,
変わり果てる魔法
Changes with a touch of magic.
気持ち前に突っ込むステップで
With feelings stepping forward,
飛ばしていけスイートな宇宙へ
Let's soar into the sweet universe.
待ちに待った宵の果て
At last, the awaited end of the evening
踊り明かそう 朝まで
Let's dance until morning
きらり照らすリップで酔わせて
With shimmering lips, get me intoxicated
とこしなえに誘ってくれ
Invite me into eternity, won't you?
触れていたい 揺れていたい
I want to touch, I want to sway
君じゃないといけない この惑い
It has to be you, this confusion I'm in
今だんだん愛になっていく
Now, little by little, it’s becoming love
騒めいていく
Stirring up the excitement
鉢合わせの とんだピーカーブー
A surprise encounter, what a peek-a-boo
燦々照り出していく
Shining brighter and brighter
謎めいていく
Becoming more mysterious
甘い罠にやられていく
Caught in a sweet trap
落ちていく
Falling down

An unexpected wild rendezvous

どんどんハイになっていく
I keep getting higher and higher
(ハイになっていく)

洒落込んでいく
Dressed up and ready to go

Getting into the groove,

Falling for the sweet trap,
落ちていく 落ちていく
I’m sinking down, sinking down,
落ちていく
I’m sinking down.
