Lyrics

akehanatareta kono heya ni wa daremo inai
shiokaze no nioi shimitsuita isu ga hitotsu

anata ga mayowanai you ni akete oku yo
kishimu to wo tataite
nani kara hanaseba ii no ka wakaranakunaru kana

hoshi ga furu yoru ni anata ni aeta
ano yoru wo wasure wa shinai
taisetsu na koto wa kotoba ni naranai
natsu no hi ni okita subete
omoigakezu hikaru no wa umi no yuurei

udaru natsu no yuu ni kozue ga fune wo miokuru
ikutsu ka no uta wo sasayaku hana wo chirashite

anata ga dokoka de warau koe ga kikoeru
atsui hoho no tezawari
nejireta michi wo susundara sono mabuta ga hiraku

hanarebanarete mo tokimeku mono
sakebou ima wa shiawase to
taisetsu na koto wa kotoba ni naranai
haneru hikari ni tokashite

hoshi ga furu yoru ni anata ni aeta
ano toki wo wasure wa shinai
taisetsu na koto wa kotoba ni naranai
natsu no hi ni okita subete
omoigakezu hikaru no wa umi no yuurei

kaze kaoru sunahama de mata aimashou

English Translation

The door is open, no one’s inside
Just a chair  that smells of the ocean breeze

Its scent will guide you,  so I’ll keep it safe
So push open the haunting door
I just hope we don’t forget  where our story starts

We met the night the stars fell
Into my memory forever more
The most important things need no words
A gift left from those summer days
Shimmering bright in front of me  I saw the spirits of the sea

In the scorching evening sun  Treetops see the boats off
Whispering songs  and scattering petals

Somewhere out there  I can hear your laugh
And I can feel the warmth of your cheeks
Once you get past that winding road  You’ll see that your eyes will open

No matter how far, our hearts beat for each other
Let’s make it known that this is happiness
And the most important things need no words
Just let these feelings melt into the light

We met the night the stars fell
Into my memory forever more
The most important things need no words
A gift left from those summer days
Shimmering bright in front of me  I saw the spirits of the sea

Perhaps we’ll meet again  At the shore with the ocean breeze
