an evening calm

words: Satoshi Yaginuma
music: Satoshi Yaginuma
arrangement: Satoshi Yaginuma

it’s been a long time since I’ve walked this road where a slightly chilly breeze dances
how many years have passed since I last came here?
my vivid memories of this place since then have been fading as the days drag on
I can’t reach the truth hidden in the twilight

the confusion from the day we parted has never stopped chasing me
that day had this beautiful autumn sky too

the tears and landscape project this burning red in my heart
I looked for you on this hill illuminated by the evening sun where the autumn breeze dances

the dry leaves lightly fall to the ground; this place is still the one from memory
so many words were said that day; they disappear as they come to mind

your voice can still be heard in the recesses of my heart
the person I was didn’t have what it took to accept everything

if it would be okay, I want to see your lovely smiling face just once more
even if you don’t realize it’s me

the tears and landscape project this burning red in my heart
I looked for you on this hill where the wind has stopped and the twilight grows darker

will this sensation will finally stop when the wind does?
I know all too well that walking boldly on my own is the same as this intense pain

the tears and landscape project this burning red in my heart
I looked for you on this hill illuminated by the evening sun where the autumn breeze dances

the tears and landscape project this burning red in my heart
I looked for you on this hill where the wind has stopped and the twilight grows darker

La la la…
