鬼束ちひろ – 陽炎

Chihiro Onituska – Heat Haze     

I will become a migratory bird, and  

Fly while holding your feelings  

You ask, “Where are you going?”  

I will show you a sky you have never seen  

I burned the letter while envisioning the end of feelings, but  

Only unrealizable wishes travel through time

I wish to take you away

Breaths of spring and breezes of summer

Putting words on the cold water surface

A tear and a goodbye

Without you, those would be all I have

A street without an umbrella coldly generates gentle sounds

Who would love an unreliable town?

My memories flutter down while ignoring my wavering heart, but

I trace only unrealizable wishes with my fingers

I wish to take you away

Chimes of autumn and sighs of winter

Scooping a little prayer with both hands

A tear and a goodbye

Without you, those would be all I have

In the dim light

My eyes become hotter

Exposing pain so that I can see you

I wish to take you away

Breaths of spring and breezes of summer

Putting words on the cold water surface

A tear

I wish to take you away

Chimes of autumn and sighs of winter

Scooping a little prayer with both hands

A tear and a goodbye

Without you, those would be all I have
