Kenshi Yonezu - Lemon [MV Subbed / Translation]
How nice it’d be if it were all just a dream
To this day I still dream about you
I dust off the cobwebs from my old memories
To go back and take what I’d forgotten
The last thing you taught me
Is about a type of happiness that doesn’t come back
The dark hidden past I never spoke of
Would be dark forever if it didn’t have you
I know there’s no way to possibly
Be hurting more than this
The sadness of our yesterdays, the pain of our yesterdays
I loved it all with you by my side
The bitter scent of lemon I can’t scrub from my heart
I can’t go home until the rain stops
Even now you remain my light
I followed you through the darkness
And vividly remember your silhouette
But every time we stumbled across something hard
The tears wouldn’t stop flowing
What were you doing? What were you looking at?
With that face I’d never seen before
If you’re out there somewhere just like me
Tears running down your face, trapped in loneliness
Won’t you please just forget about me
I wish for that will all my heart
Even now you remain my light
When the moment struck me
That I was more in love
With you than I ever thought
I couldn’t breathe
It seemed completely unbelievable
Just how close you were to me
I will never forget it
That much I know for sure
The sadness of our yesterdays, the pain of our yesterdays
I loved it all with you by my side
The bitter scent of lemon I can’t scrub from my heart
I can’t go home until the rain stops
My other half of a split fruit
Even now you remain my light

Yume naraba dore hodo yokatta deshou
Imada ni anata no koto wo yume ni miru
Wasureta mono wo tori ni kaeru you ni
Furubita omoide no hokori wo harau
Modoranai shiawase ga aru koto wo
Saigo ni anata ga oshiete kureta
Iezu ni kakushiteta kurai kako mo
Anata ga inakya eien ni kurai mama
Kitto mou kore ijou kizutsuku koto nado
Ari wa shinai to wakatte iru
Ano hi no kanashimi sae ano hi no kurushimi sae
Sono subete wo aishiteta anata to tomo ni
Mune ni nokori hanarenai nigai remon no nioi
Ame ga furiyamu made wa kaerenai
Ima demo anata wa watashi no hikari
Kurayami de anata no se wo nazotta
Sono rinkaku wo senmei ni oboete iru
Uketome kirenai mono to deau tabi
Afurete yamanai no wa namida dake
Nani wo shiteita no nani wo miteita no
Watashi no shiranai yokogao de
Dokoka de anata ga ima watashi to onaji you na
Namida ni kure sabishisa no naka ni iru nara
Watashi no koto nado douka wasurete kudasai
Sonna koto wo kokoro kara negau hodo ni
Ima demo anata wa watashi no hikari
Jibun ga omou yori
Koi wo shiteita anata ni
Are kara omou you ni

Ano hi no kanashimi sae ano hi no kurushimi sae
Sono subete wo aishiteta anata to tomo ni
Mune ni nokori hanarenai nigai remon no nioi
Ame ga furiyamu made wa kaerenai
Kiriwaketa kajitsu no katahou no you ni
Ima demo anata wa watashi no hikari

Not sure how long a sleeve to wear, the end of summer
I was rocked by the dawn train and remembered
That nostalgic scenery
I took the long way around so many times
Through the repeating landscape of the streets
I see my reflect in the window
I wonder if you’re the same now as you were back then
Riding around on that old bent bicycle
A ridiculous tightrope walker with blood running from your knee
Nowadays things feel so empty
No matter how much we’ve grown
I’m hoping some things stay the same
Encouraged by the silly little traces of you
I still sing, I still sing, I still sing
La, la, la, la…
In a taxi traveling these restless streets
I absentmindedly gazed out the window as it carried me
And let out a sneeze
At that moment my heart trembled
I get the strong feeling that meeting you again would be good
I haven’t forgotten a thing
I wonder if you’re the same now as you were back then
Searching everywhere for your shoe that feel off in the bushes
“No matter what, things will work out between us”
You laughed innocently; I remember those days
No matter how much you hurt me
I offer flowers to the never-ending days
Chasing after the silly little traces of you
Still I sing, still I sing, still I sing
La, la, la, la…
I wonder if you’re somewhere out there
Looking at the crescent moon before sunrise too
For no reason at all my chest hurts
Faces blur, colors run
Right now I’m shouting out of sadness
Is it really too late for everything?
If I could start walking again from the beginning
I would want to cross paths with you again
No matter how much we’ve grown
I’m hoping some things stay the same
Encouraged by the silly little traces of you
I still sing, I still sing, I still sing
La, la, la, la…
I wonder if you’re somewhere out there
Looking at the crescent moon before sunrise too
The morning sun comes, laughing that nothing was there
The beginning was blue
