CRESCENT MOON
Lyrics: Matsumoto Takashi Translation: Jonathan Wu
As I was combing my hair, I saw the outline of your face
Pollen flutters from the stars, on a sand slope on the beach
After all this, I finally obtained a sparkling love
Caught in your arms, I am afraid to break
Laying down on a Crescent Moon bed
You say nothing, and join my sleep
Without saying a word, I ask your eyes
The cat in me playfully hides his nails
If you plan to betray our future
I probably won’t allow it
You teach me the way you live, second by second
Exposing the clouds behind your smile during a moonlit night
Waves of glass are rolling in
injured by its fragments, you bleed transparent blood
From my Crescent Moon bed on the sea
I shivver in the wind
But I won’t lose against the winds
We were crushed by the times
But we will survive won’t we?
But I can’t rely on you
I want to be the one that protects
The grains of time, they’re falling through my fingers
The world will collapse, and become nothing
But as long as this love is here
We can live
Laying down on a Crescent Moon bed
You say nothing, and join my sleep
Without saying a word, I ask your eyes
The cat in me playfully hides his nails
If you plan to betray our future
I probably won’t allow it
