kanji & kana

    君と知り合ってどれくらいだろう?
    いつが初めてか覚えていない
    ずっと昔から聞いていたような
    言葉の懐かしさを僕は感じていた

    雑踏のその中で
    見失う花がある
    通り過ぎる人の群れは
    あの日 見てた夢を捨てて
    どこへ急ぐのかな

    思い出せてよかった
    僕がこの街を目指した理由(わけ)
    もしも君と
    巡り会わなければ
    自分を 忘れて
    きっと流されていた

    ただの付き合いで行っただけなのに
    花火大会に君がいたんだ
    誰も気づかないイントネーションに
    一瞬 故郷(ふるさと)の空が目に浮かんだ

    打ち上げた五尺玉
    消える度 真っ暗で
    そばの誰かさえも見えず
    僕は揺れる影のようで
    孤独だと思った

    思い出した希望は
    遥かあの街の風の匂い
    海を見つめ
    語り合った未来
    青春時代の
    友は元気だろうか?

    ほっとしたよ 出会って
    僕は今だって変わってない

    思い出せてよかった
    僕がこの街を目指した理由(わけ)
    もしも君と
    巡り会わなければ
    自分を 忘れて
    きっと流されていた

english translation

    I wonder for how long we have known each other?
    I don't remember when was the first time
    It seems I've been hearing you since long time ago
    I feel the nostalgic sense of your words

    In the midst
    There is a forgotten flower
    Swarms of people passing through
    Throwing away the dream they saw that day
    Where are they hurrying to?

    It's good that I remember
    The reason that I am looking for in this town
    If I haven't
    Crossed path with you
    I would have forgotten myself
    And surely have been drifted away

    Even though we just hung out
    You were there in the firework festival
    (Speaking) in a intonation without anyone noticing
    The sky of my hometown appeared instantly in front of my eyes

    Fireworks launched to the sky
    As it fades, darkness arrived
    I couldn't even see who was beside me
    I was like a wavering shadow
    and thought I would be desoluted

    The hope that I remembered
    The smell of the wind from that distant town
    Staring at the sea
    Talked about the future
    I wonder if my teenage friend is doing well?

    I'm relieved that I have met you
    I still haven't changed even now

    It's good that I remember
    The reason that I am looking for in this town
    If I haven't
    Crossed path with you
    I would have forgotten myself
    And surely have been drifted away
