Aozu

Pieces of a glittering light
Were swaying in a puddle of water
The wind had played a trick on
The face peering into it

I was walking, purposely seeing off
The bus on Jikokuhyou Street
The same old streets
Looked a little different to me

Suddenly, someone called ou tmy name
And I looked above on the pedestrian bridge
And there was an unfamiliar smile
Curtly, I raised my hand in acknowledgement
We walked home together
And the conversation we had about dumb little things
Got me strangely excited

The melody of the changing seasons
Silently played on the street corner
I strongly thought that
I wanted time to freeze on this moment
Heading toward an unknown tomorrow
We'll go to it hand in hand, without letting go
The important thing to us
Will always be freedom

With the words that had suddenly arrived
I had replied with the title
Re: Who are you with now, all of the sudden?

The slightly cold wind
Blew your bangs around
We walked along as we
Stepped on our shadows, cast long

There's still passion left in me
When I looked up, leaning against the wall
And thought "wow...a day sure does pass quickly"
"I still haven't gotten a reply to that email"
"I wonder if it will be hot tomorrow too?"
Right about now, a conversation about nothing special
Would probably do the trick

The harmony of the changing seasons
Softly swept over my ears
I thought it would be nice if this song reaches out
And then I thought of you
Heading toward an unknown world
With the strength of believing in ourselves
The important thing to us
Will always be freedom

"Even if 10 years pass
And we met by chance in town...
You probably wouldn't be any different"
I said that suddenly, with a serious face
You burst into laughter without even thinking about it
And for some reason, it warms my heart a little

Of course, my heart is dancing to
The rhythm of the changing seasons
I strongly thought that
I wanted time to freeze on this moment
The harmony of the changing seasons
Softly swept over my ears
I thought it would be nice if this song reaches out
And then I thought of you
Somewhere, in this town that's getting dark
We're each walking down our own patsh
The future that we're heading toward
Will always have freedom
