Kuchibue Lyrics

Edit
頼り無く二つ並んだ不揃いの影が
北風に揺れながら延びてく
凸凹のまま膨らんだ君への想いは
この胸のほころびから顔を出した

口笛を遠く　永遠に祈る様に遠く　響かせるよ
言葉より確かなものに　ほら　届きそうな気がしてんだ

さあ　手を繋いで　僕らの現在が途切れない様に
その香り　その身体　その全てで僕は生き返る
夢を摘むんで帰る畦道　立ち止まったまま
そしてどんな場面も二人なら笑えますように

無造作にさげた鞄にタネが詰まっていて
手品の様　ひねた僕を笑わせるよ
形あるものは次第に姿を消すけれど
君がくれた　この温もりは消せないさ

いつもは素通りしてたベンチに座り　見渡せば
よどんだ街の景色さえ　ごらん　愛しさに満ちてる

ああ　雨上がりの遠くの空に虹が架かったなら
戸惑いや　不安など　簡単に吹き飛ばせそうなのに
乾いた風に口笛は　澄み渡ってゆく
まるで世界中を優しく包み込むように

子供の頃に
夢中で探してたものが
ほら　今　目の前で手を広げている
怖がらないで踏み出しておいで

さあ　手を繋いで　僕らの現在が途切れない様に
その香り　その身体 その全てで僕は生き返る
夢を摘むんで帰る畦道　立ち止まったまま
そしてどんな場面も二人で笑いながら
優しく響くあの口笛のように

Our vaguely defined shadows out of synch with one another,
are stretching out as they waver in the northernly wind.

Though they haven’t filled out prettily, my feelings for you
balloon up and a face comes out from a tear in my heart.

Let that whistle echo as far off as my prayer to eternity
Don’t you see, I felt that something so sure
could reach you more than words.

So take my hand so our time together won’t be interrupted.
That scent, that body, all of it brings me back to life.
Picking out dreams on the way home between the rice fields
I come to a stop… and then no matter what the scene we find ourselves
in,
if we’re together I hope we can laugh about it.

With a sleight of hand you stuff seeds in the bag I casually carry,
though I’m usually stiff, that makes me laugh.

Though phsyical things lose their shape gradually,
the warmth you gave me will never disappear.

Sitting on the bench I always passed by,
when I took a look around,
I saw a dearness over flowing
in even the stagnant scenery of the city

Ah if a rainbow appears in the far off sky
where the rain has let up, even though our worries and distractions
can be blown away so easilly, a dry wind blows in and around everything
with a whistle like its surrounding the whole world.

The thing you looked for with such fervor in your youth,
see now it’s right before you, just stretch out your hands,
don’t be afraid, just take a step out there.


And then no matter the scene we laugh about it
like that gently echoing whistle.
