Cicada Chorus in September-9月の蝉しぐれ

Cicada Chorus in September
9月の蝉しぐれ
Kugatsu no Semishigure

Lyrics by: Yumi Matsutoya
Music by: Yumi Matsutoya

I never thought
There would come a day when I could say "thank you."
Why, and from where
Did you give me this phone call?

In the love I couldn’t let go of,
Your silence, which seemed so cowardly,
Now somehow feels like kindness

Tell me, does becoming an adult
Mean having a heart that feels nothing anymore?
Even when hurt so deeply it feels like dying,
It becomes a nostalgic memory

At the bus stop at the bottom of the hill from school,
We were still wearing our summer uniforms
As we walked home together in cicada chorus of September

It's so sad. Please don’t stop crying,
Ah, that single-minded image
The deep green fades away again,
As if with just one brushstroke

Tell me, does becoming an adult
Mean having a heart that feels nothing anymore?
Even when hurt so deeply it feels like dying,
It becomes a nostalgic memory
