RADWIMPS feat. Masaki Suda - Utakata-Uta Lyrics + English Translation

夢中になってのめり込んだ　ものがそういやあったよな
眠るのも飯を食うのも忘れ　明けても暮れても

ただ追いかけた　先なんか見えずとも
むしろ見えなくて　余計に追いかけていった

そんな道のど真ん中で　君は僕にぶつかった
それが君の運の尽き　そして僕の運のすべてで

一度も眼を見て　言えたことないけど
僕の何分の一でも　君は幸せでいたのかい

走るにはどうやら命は長すぎて
悔やむにはどうやら命は短すぎて

諦めるにはどうやら命は長すぎて
分かるにはどうやら命は短すぎる

ねぇやりきれない夜だけ　君を思い出してもいいかい
君の手垢だらけのこの記憶だけど　ねぇ僕のものでしょう？

うまく笑えているかな　鏡の前たしかめるけど
お前さんなんて情けない　顔してんだよ
笑うどころか　危うく涙しそうで　うつむくんだ

夢も歌も賽の目も　いつも僕には冷たくて
まるで暖をとるかの　ようにから笑いを繰り返す

そんな日々だけど　君のその笑顔は
僕を温めた　身体の芯から優しく

何回か先の世でまた逢うかな
その時ぶきっちょな顔はよしてよ

僕はまた一から君に恋を
どう逆らってもしてしまうだろう

そしたら人生またぎで特大の
いつもの憎まれ口を聞かせて

走るにはどうやら命は長すぎて
悔やむにはどうやら命は短すぎて

諦めるにはどうやら命は長すぎて
悟るにはどうやら命は短すぎる

ねぇやりきれない夜だけ　君を思い出してもいいかい
君の手垢だらけのこの記憶だけど　ねぇ僕のものでしょう？

うまく笑えているかな　鏡の前たしかめるけど
「お前さん　顔をあげなよ　無理してでもさ
似合わないだろう　お前に涙なんかは」
どこからともなくあの　人懐っこい声が

聞こえるだろう

You know, there used to be a thing I was so into
That I even forgot to sleep or eat, day in day out

Couldn't see what’s ahead but I just kept chasing
The less I knew, the more I went after

Right in the middle of that road, you bumped into me
Well, that ended your luck, but it was the best thing which happened to me

I never got to look you in the eye and ask but
Tell me, were you even a fraction happy like I was?

Life seems too long to run
Life seems too short to regret

Life seems too long to give up
Life seems too short to understand

Can I recall you only when nights get too much to take?
These stained memories of yours are mine after all

I look in the mirror to see if my smile is ok
That's when I saw a pathetic looking fella
He hardly smiles, just facing down to hide his tears

Dreams, songs, and roll of dice have always been so cold to me
I'll put on a phony smile again as if to keep myself warm

Such were the days, such is your smile
Giving me warmth and comfort from deep down inside

Wonder if we'll ever see each other in our next lifetime or more
When we do, please don't look so awkward

I'll fall in love with you all over again
No matter how much I defy, I know I will

Then let me hear you
That humongous life-straddling big mouth I know too well

Life seems too long to run
Life seems too short to regret

Life seems too long to give up
Life seems too short to fully understand

Can I recall you only when nights get too much to take?
These stained memories of yours are mine after all

I look in the mirror to see if my smile is ok
"Raise your face, man, even if you don't want to
Cause tears don't suit you"
Out of nowhere, you will hear That friendly voice

talking to you
