kanji & kana

    秋から冬への途中
    僕たちは
    近道したつもりで
    未来への曲がり角と
    やさしさと
    風を忘れていたよ

    サヨナラつぶやく
    君の表情は
    陽射しが届かず
    愛はもう　枯れてしまった

    空にひこうき雲
    白く棚引く線よ
    誰の思いが残るの？
    振り向く余裕もないまま・・・
    時のひこうき雲
    爪を立てたみたいに
    細く生々しい傷跡
    僕はぼんやりと
    眺めていた

    横切るどこかの猫は
    僕たちを
    どんな目で見てるのか？
    子どもに落書きされた
    アスファルト
    思い出を跨（また）いでる

    どこかで２人は
    また会えるのかな
    記憶の街角
    人が多すぎるから

    愛はひこうき雲
    淡い一筆書き
    二度と戻れないあの日に
    切なく　うしろ髪引かれ・・・
    まるでひこうき雲
    涙を　隠すように
    遠く　右手を翳して
    君は悲しみを
    見送っていた

    空にひこうき雲
    白く棚引く線よ
    誰の思いが残るの？
    振り向く余裕もないまま・・・
    愛のひこうき雲
    後を追いかけるみたいに
    少し　遅れて聞こえた
    空を飛ぶ音と
    泣いた声
    ひこうき雲
    涙を隠すように
    遠く　右手を翳して
    君は　悲しみを
    見送っていた

english translation

    Along our route sometime between autumn and winter,
    We planned
    On taking a shortcut
    With the street corner to the future
    And such kindness,
    We forgot about the wind

    "Goodbye,"
    Your facial expression said
    With none of the rays of sun breaking through,
    The love has already withered away

    The vapor trail in the sky
    A white lingering line
    Do anyone's feelings remain?
    I don't have it in me to look back…
    The vapor trail of time
    Like a claw sinking in
    To leave a fresh, slender scar,
    I'm absent-minded
    As I gaze at it

    A cat crossing somewhere
    How does it
    See us?
    The asphalt
    That the kids scribbled on
    Stands atop our memories

    I wonder if
    Two people can meet somewhere
    Since there are too many people
    Along the street corner of our memories

    The vapor trail of love
    A fleeting one-stroke stretch
    I can't go back to that day once more
    Painfully, my hair is swept back…
    It's all just like a vapor trail
    To hide these tears,
    From far away I hold up my right hand to cover my face
    As you bid farewell
    To your sadness

    The vapor trail in the sky
    A white lingering line
    Do anyone's feelings remain?
    I don't have it in me to look back…
    The vapor trail of love
    I seem to chase after it
    As I'm a little bit late to hear
    The sound of a tearful voice
    Flying through the air
    A vapor trail
    To hide these tears,
    From far away I hold up my right hand to cover my face
    As you bid farewell
    To your sadness
