中島みゆき - 空と君のあいだに

Miyuki Nakajima – Between the Sky and You     

When you shed tears, I serve as a poplar branch  

I cannot say words taking advantage of the loneliness of someone  

I knew the true colors of that guy who made you cry  

I tried to stop you, but you shook off my hand on that distant night  

Love is still here

Love will be here forever

Between the sky and you, cold rain falls today, too

To make you smile, I could even become evil

Between the sky and you, cold rain falls today, too

To make you smile, I could even become evil

I’m wondering why a woman follows a man who easily swears

That he understands her feelings and ends up sobbing

It’s painful to see you acting tough with dispirited eyes

Don’t be shackled by him with the hatred against him

Love is still here

I’m here

Don’t look down

Between the sky and you, cold rain falls today, too

To make you smile, I could even become evil

Between the sky and you, cold rain falls today, too

To make you smile, I could even become evil

Between the sky and you, cold rain falls today, too

To make you smile, I could even become evil
