Kikyou ga Oka (桔梗が丘) Lyrics
BY  Ken Hirai
ALBUM  Grotesque feat. Namie Amuro (グロテスク)

Edit
「ただいま」の声が小さい時は
心配で仕方が無いんだけど
丸くなった背中に手をあてて
出来るだけ優しい声で言おう「おかえり」

あなたが何かに傷ついた時
変わってあげられない歯がゆさは
それを乗り越えた時の笑顔を
見つめた時に　私の誇りになるから

夢中なものは変わるけど
夢中になる気持ちは変わらないで
その瞳に映るもの全てに　寄り添う事は出来ないけれど

冷たい雨が　頬切る風が　あなたの心を砕くかもしれない
負けないように　取り戻せる様に　ここだけはあたためておこう

鍵をかけたドア越しにこぼれる
あなたの泣き声をただ聞いてた
忘れないで何かに勝つ時は
負ける人の涙がある事を　いつでも

正直言うと私だって
胸を張れるような大人じゃなくて
声を上げて苛立ちをぶつける　夜もあった本当にごめんね

いつかあなたが　扉を開けて　自分の空を翔く日が来ても
羽根を休める場所になるため　ここだけはあたためていよう

冷たい雨が　頬切る風が　あなたの心を砕くかもしれない
負けないように　取り戻せる様に　ここだけはあたためておこう
ここだけはあたためておこう

Lyrics & Composition: Ken Hirai
Arrangement: Trio Oohashi

When you say "I'm home" with a tiny voice
I can't help but be worried, but
I put a hand to your rounded back
and say "Welcome home" with as gentle a voice as I can

When you're hurt by something
my irritation won't give change
but when I gaze at your smile
when you've overcome it, that becomes my pride

Though what we get engrossed in changes
these feelings of getting engrossed won't change
though I can't get close to everything reflecting in your eyes

The cold rain and the wind cutting your cheeks may break your heart
But so you don't lose, so you can regain it, I'll warm you up right here

Spilling over beyond the locked door
I only heard your crying voice
Don't forget: when we win something
there are tears of those who lost, always

To speak honestly, I too
am not an adult who can be puffed up with pride
and I've had nights when I raised my voice and rented my frustrations - I'm truly sorry

Even if the day comes when you someday open the door and fly into your own sky
to be the place where you can rest your wings, I will warm you up right here

The cold rain and the wind cutting your cheeks may break your heart
But so you don't lose, so you can regain it, I'll warm you up right here
I'll warm you up right here
