辛子色のシャツ追いながら 飛び乗った電車のドア
Chasing after a mustard-colored shirt, I jumped onto the train's door.
いけないと知りながら 振り向けば隠れた
Knowing it's wrong, when I turn around, I find the hidden.
街は色づいたクレヨン画 涙まで染めて走る
The streets are like a crayon drawing, running colored with tears.
年上の人に会う 約束と知ってて
Meeting someone older, aware of the promise in my heart.
September そしてあなたは
September, and there you are.
September 秋に変わった
September, it transformed into autumn.
夏の陽射しが弱まるように心に翳がさした
As the summer sunlight weakens, a shadow spreads over my heart.
September (September) そして九月は
September (September), and September is here.
September (September) さよならの国
September (September), a land of goodbyes.
解きかけてる愛の結び目 涙が木の葉になる
The love's knot is loosening, tears turn into leaves.
会ってその人に頼みたい 彼のこと返してねと
I want to meet and ask that person, please give him back to me
でもだめね 気の弱さ くちびるも凍える
But no, my weakness holds me back, my lips are also frozen
September そしてあなたは
September, and there you are
September 秋に変わった
September turned into autumn
話すことさえなくなるなんて私に飽きた証拠
The proof that you're tired of me is that we've run out of things to say
September (September) そして九月は (say goodbye)
September (September), and September (say goodbye)
September さよならの国 (in September)
September, the country of farewells (in September)
めぐる季節の色どりの中 一番淋しい月
Amidst the colorful seasons, the loneliest month of all
借りていた dictionary 明日返すわ（明日返すわ）
The dictionary I borrowed, I’ll return it tomorrow (I’ll return it tomorrow)
"Love"という言葉だけ切り抜いた後
After cutting out just the word 'Love'
それが goodbye (bye bye), goodbye (bye bye)
That’s goodbye (bye bye), goodbye (bye bye)
September そしてあなたは
September, and you are
September 秋に変わった
September has turned to autumn
私ひとりが傷つくことが残されたやさしさね
The kindness that remains is just my lonely pain
September そして九月は (say goodbye)
September, and September is (say goodbye)
September さよならの国 (in September)
September, the land of farewells (in September)
トリコロールの海辺の服も二度と着ることはない
I will never wear the tricolor seaside clothes again
Say goodbye in September
Say goodbye in September
Ooh
Ooh
September, la la la la la la la (say goodbye)
September, la la la la la la la (say goodbye)
September, la la la la la la la (in September)
September, la la la la la la la (in September)
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la...
La la la la la la la la la la...
