Veranda

Veranda
Lyrics: Arimura Ryuutarou
Composition: Hasegawa Tadashi
Translation by Yuri_Nikko

Clouds dirtied an orange hue
the wind cleaned it all up
I gazed at this from a veranda
For no reason, sorrow came knocking
Tomorrow, the flowers I had
what color would they bloom?

I’m still here waiting, in a spot that’s always sunny
until you would come, because I’m always waiting

A bat lost in a street light
drawing odd parabolas
The sky was so sad
I was weakening

I’m still here waiting, in a spot that’s always sunny
until you would come, because I’m always waiting

Tomorrow, the flowers I had
what color would they bloom?

I’m still here waiting, in a spot that’s always sunny
until you would come, because I’m always waiting
And even if one day I should rot away
on this veranda these little white flowers
will bloom-
“I’m waiting.”
