井上陽水 – 少年時代

Yosui Inoue – Boyhood Days     

The summer has passed, and  

Thistle flowers are quivering in the wind  

I’m wandering while longing for someone  

My heart left behind the blue sky remains in the summer

I wake up from my dream, and

The endless winter closes windows at night

Calling on the summer

A dream makes and follows memories

Summer festival

A bonfire in the evening

In tune with the racing heart

Dreamy fireworks in August

My heart remains in the summer

I wake up from my dream, and

My shadow is elongated at night

Toward the sky with stardust

A dream makes and follows memories

The summer has passed, and

Thistle flowers are quivering in the wind

I’m wandering while longing for someone

Dreamy fireworks in August

My heart remains in the summer
