L'arc en Ciel: Milky Way

04.02.26
Artist: L'arc en Ciel
Title: Milky Way
Words: Tetsu
Music: Tetsu

I want to see you, on the night of falling stars
I slipped out of the city, without waiting for dawn
you under the moonlight.... even now.

days, those days when we walked playfully
maze, I felt would go on forever.

why deep in your eyes, are you lost, avoiding the obvious?
if you open the door to your heart, I'll come to get you soon.

the feelings welling up, flowing in the wind
I swore not to give up, to that place.
embraced by the falling stars... the two of us

lies, it's not like those days will turn to a lie
eyes, I close my eyes, I'm just running from the memory

but if I stay here, nothing will change
it's not the past which matters, it's the glimmering future.

the feelings welling up, flowing in the wind
I hesistated a bit on making that first step
but I won't fret any longer
I want to see you on the night of falling stars
I slipped out of the city without waiting for the dawn
you under the moonlight... forever.

Translator's Notes: There is also a version of this song on the Jiyuu he no Shoutai single by Punk~en~Ciel, where each member takes a role different to their usual ones. Tetsu the songwriter on vocals. The lyrics are identical.

Romaji

hoshi furu yoru kimi ni aitakute
yoake wo matazu machi wo nukedashita
tsukiakari no shita no kimi... ima mo

days hashaide aruiteta ano koro ga
maze itsumademo tsuzuku you na ki ga shiteta

naze hitomi no oku kimi ha mayoi toomawari suru?
hora kokoro no doa akereba sugu mukae ni iku yo

afureru omoi ni kaze ni nagasarete
akiramenai to chikatta ano basho he
furisosogu hoshi ni dakare ... futari

lies ano koro ga uso ni naru wake jyanakute
eyes me wo tojite tada omoide ni nigeteru dake

demo koko ni ite mo nani hitotsu kawari ha shinai
sou daiji na no ha kako jyanakute kagayaku mirai

afureru omoi kaze ni nagasarete
fumi dasu koto sukoshi tameratta
mou mayowanai
hoshi furu yoru kimi ni aitakute
yoake wo matazu machi wo nukedashita
tsukiakari no shita no kimi... zutto
