松田聖子 - 赤いスイートピー

Seiko Matsuda – Red Sweet Pea     

Take me to the sea by riding a train of the spring color  

I will snuggle up to your shirt smelling of a cigarette  

I’m wondering why you don’t even hold my hand,

As it has been already half a year since we got acquainted

I will follow you

I wanna follow you

I will follow you

You are a little timid, but you are nice

A red sweet pea blooming on the bank of my mind

It starts raining in April, and

An awkward atmosphere suddenly surrounds

The two of us seated on a bench in a station

With no one else nearby

Why do I feel like crying

Every time you steal a glance at your watch?

I will follow you

With winged boots

I will follow you

I wanna rush through the bloom of youth together with you

The buds at the side of the railroad track are red sweet peas

I like you more than anyone else I’ve encountered so far

I will follow you

I like your way of life

I cannot go home like this

The day the spring has arrived at my heart is a red sweet pea
