いつもの駅でいつも逢う
At the usual station, we always meet
セーラー服のお下げ髪
With her sailor uniform and braided hair
もうくる頃 もうくる頃
She's due to come soon, due to come soon
今日も待ちぼうけ
Once again, I'm left waiting
明日がある 明日がある 明日があるさ
There's tomorrow, there's tomorrow, there will be a tomorrow
ぬれてるあの娘コウモリへ
That girl is drenched, like a bat
さそってあげよと待っている
Waiting to invite her over, I sit still
声かけよう 声かけよう
I'll call out to her, I'll call out to her
だまって見てる僕
Quietly watching from the sidelines, it's me
明日がある 明日がある 明日があるさ
There's tomorrow, there's tomorrow, there will be a tomorrow
今日こそはと待ちうけて
Today is the day I've been waiting for,
うしろ姿をつけて行く
Following your silhouette as I go.
あの角まで あの角まで
To that corner, to that corner,
今日はもうヤメタ
I've decided to stop for today.
明日がある 明日がある 明日があるさ
There's tomorrow, there's tomorrow, there's tomorrow,
思いきってダイヤルを
With courage, I dialed the phone,
ふるえる指で回したよ
With trembling fingers, I turned the dial.
ベルがなるよ ベルがなるよ
The bell is ringing, the bell is ringing,
出るまで待てぬ僕
I'm the one who can't wait to see you,
明日がある 明日がある 明日があるさ
There's tomorrow, there's tomorrow, there's tomorrow.
はじめて行った喫茶店
The café I visited for the first time,
たった一言好きですと
I can only say one thing, that I like you.
ここまで出て ここまで出て
Come this far, come this far,
とうとう云えぬ僕
Finally, I can't say it.
明日がある 明日がある 明日があるさ
There's tomorrow, there's tomorrow, there is tomorrow.
明日があるさ明日がある
There is tomorrow, there is tomorrow.
若い僕には夢がある
I have a dream, as a young man.
いつかきっと いつかきっと
Someday for sure, someday for sure,
わかってくれるだろ
You'll understand, won't you?
明日がある 明日がある 明日があるさ
There's tomorrow, there's tomorrow, there is tomorrow.
