この街は この街は
This town, this town,
生まれてきたままで 意味もなく
Born as it is, without meaning,
愛されたい 愛されたい
I want to be loved, I want to be loved,
そこらじゅうに散らばった夢のように
Like dreams scattered all around,
細やかな日常だけが残る
Only the delicate everyday life remains.

This town, this town,
生まれてきたままで 意味もなく
Born as it is, without meaning,
愛していたい 愛していたい
I want to love, I want to love,
そこらじゅうに散らばった夢のように
Like dreams scattered all around,
細やかな日常だけが残る
Only the delicate everyday life remains.
