BAND: 摩天楼オペラ (Matenrou Opera)
SONG: 天上への架け橋を (Tenjou e no kakehashi wo)

Lyrics & Music: 苑 (Sono), Translation: karmik (http://translations.hanabie.com/)


A bridge to the heavens


The colours fade   the light disappears
Why am I still alive   in this lost world?

The dawn is chilly   the morning comes again
I remember that we were always together   ever since I were born

Ah   Crying, I realize   that I'll never be able to meet you again
Ah   And that you always looked after me   only me

My lonely footsteps resound on the pavement
The smoke from my cigarette disappeared with the winter's scent

Ah   Why am I alone in here?
Ah   Why are you gone?

Because I've grown up a little
I realize I was always the one being protected
The days that I thought would go on forever ended too soon

Ah   Crying, I realize   that I'll never be able to meet you again
Ah   And that you always looked after me   only me

Surely, you too are somewhere, sleepless and thinking about sad things
Please wait just a little while   until it's my time

Please wait just a little while   until it's my time



色が消えてく 光が負ける
消えたこの世界で私は どうしてまだ生きてる

冷たい夜明け 朝がまた来る
産まれてから 私の記憶はあなたといつも一緒で

ああ 泣き出して気付くの あなたにもう会えないこと
ああ 本当は私を 私だけを見てくれてたこと

一人の足音が歩道に響く
点けた煙草の煙は冬の匂いと消えた

ああ どうして私だけ 1人でここにいるんだろう
ああ どうしてあなたはいなくなってしまったの

もう少し もう少し 私が大人だから
守られてばかりの自分に気付けたのに
永遠だと思っていた日々は あっけなく終わってしまったよ

ああ 泣き出して気付くの あなたにもう会えないこと
ああ 本当は私を 私だけを見てくれてたこと

きっとあなたも眠れずに 寂しい思いをしているのでしょう
どうか私がいくまで もう少し待っていて下さい

どうか私がいくまで もう少し待っていて下さい
