Planetarium

Eiga kan wo dete mitara
Soto wa mou makkura de
Shibuya no NEON ga
Sora ni bettari haritsuiteta

Kaze ni yureteru fuuzoku no POSTER
Isshun kimi ni mieta

Kimi no umareta machi de mita
Hoshi wa marude PLANETARIUM
Nani ka ga yurusareta ki ga shita yo
Hontou wa me ga warui kara
Hoshi wa yoku mienakatta kedo...

Chikatetsu no nagai yami wo
Nukeru to ame moyou
Itsumo no eki de sukoshi
Yamu no wo matteita

Nureta machi kin no VILLA no onna no ko
Kimi ni sukoshi niteta

Mae kimi no heya de mita shashin wa
Dore mo sora ga sukitottete
Omowazu dakishimetaku natta kedo
Te ga yogoreteiru ki ga shita

Kimi ga umareta machi de mita
Hoshi wa marude PLANETARIUM
Nani ka ga yurusareta ki ga shita yo
Kondo itsu mirareru kana...

Translation

When I tried leaving the cinema
outside it was already dark
The lights of Shibuya
clung thickly to the sky

A sex service poster blows by on the wind
And for an instant I see you

The stars in the town you were born in
were like a planetarium
I felt as if I was being forgiven for something
Though the truth is I couldn't really see them
because of my poor vision...

When I got out of the long darkness
of the underground railway it looked like it would rain
so I waited for a little at the usual station
for it to stop

The women in the golden villa of the town drenched in rain
looked a little like you

The sky in the photos I saw in
your apartment before were all so transparent
that I instinctively felt like holding you but
I felt like my hands were too dirty

The stars in the town you were born
were like a planetarium
I felt as if I was being forgiven for something
I wonder if I'll be able to see them properly next time...
