夏よ咲いて (Natsu yo saite) – Summer, bloom
from Ano Natsu he to single.

The intense burning sun sets
And I can’t see your back anymore
Unable to catch up, I stand
At the waves alone, watching them retreat
In love, we were too close
And couldn’t be honest
The sound of fireworks coming from far away
So desperately pretty and lonely
I want to go back, but I can’t
To that day of our merry summer
I don’t want them to become memories
How you taught me the meaning of love
We passed each other, became entwined
That summer with you has disappeared
The past season was so beautiful
Only your smile cannot be erased
With my coat collar turned up
I search for that summer’s sky
Because I loved, the cracks
In this heart cannot be filled
I thought of walking on
Even now, that love is not a lie
I want to go back, but I can’t
I finally understood my own naïveté
I can’t stay like this
I want to hold you even tighter than before
The snow melted, spring has passed
Summer, bloom once again
I want to go back, but I can’t
To that day of our merry summer
I don’t want them to become memories
How you taught me the meaning of love
I don’t care if it’s just an illusion
Summer, bloom once again
