摩天楼の距離 | Matenrou no kyori | The Distance to Skyscrapers

走る長距離バス
目指すニューヨークシティ
窓の空の向こうに
何が待っているだろう

夢の踊り子が
生まれた町を飛び出すように
都会に　憧れた

摩天楼までその手　伸ばして
掴もうとしているものは
ブロードウェイのステージのスポットライト
どれだけの失望と涙を
引き換えにするつもりか
神様　彼女にご加護を...

朝のターミナルは
人の運の出し入れ
背中　丸めて帰る
未来　失った者

夢を詰め込んだ
トランクひとつ引きずりながら
手を翳し見上げる

摩天楼まで近すぎるから
その高さがわからないよ
届きそうで届かない　梯子を探して...
真っ白なＴシャツや心を
嘘をついて汚さないで
神様　彼女にご慈悲を...

摩天楼までその手　伸ばして
掴もうとしているものは
ブロードウェイのステージのスポットライト
どれだけの失望と涙を
引き換えにするつもりか
神様　彼女にご加護を...

The long distance bus runs
Its destination is New York City
What is waiting for her
Beyond the sky outside the window?

She dreams of becoming a dancer
And ran away from the city she was born in
She longed for the metropolis

What she is trying to grab
When she reaches out her hand to the skyscrapers
Is a spotlight on a Broadway stage
How many disappointments and tears
Is she planning to exchange for it?
God, please protect her...

The terminal in the morning
Is a river of people swarming to and from
There are those people who have lost their futures
And go back bending forwards

Dragging along one trunk
Which she stuffed with her dreams
She shades her eyes with a hand and looks up

She's too close to the skyscraper
So she can't figure out how tall they are
They look like she can reach them, yet they're unreacheable and she's looking for a ladder...
Don't soil with lies your white T-shirt
And your heart
God, please, have mercy of her...

What she is trying to grab
When she reaches out her hand to the skyscrapers
Is a spotlight on a Broadway stage
How many disappointments and tears
Is she planning to exchange for it?
God, please protect her...
