Crystal City

English translation

Crystal City

ブルーグレイの空に消える星座は

The constellations fading into the blue-gray sky

夜明けを告げるイルミネーション

Are the illuminations that brings the dawn

インクの匂い 新しい新聞に

The news lined up in the new paper,

並んだニュース まだ眠たそう

Smelling of ink, still seems a bit sleepy

Take a little shine

Take a little shine

数えきれない顔を持っている

With its uncountable faces,

街はブリリアンカット

The city is brilliant-cut

そのひとつひとつがキラキラと

Each and every one of them glimmers

やがて きらめくの

And soon begins to shimmer

52階のスカイ・レストランにも

To the Sky Restaurant on the 52nd floor

暗いあの地下鉄の駅にも

And the dark subway station,

同じひとつの朝がめぐってくるの

The same morning comes along

そして街は今日も新しい

And the city is made new again today

いつでも探してる 見えない何かを

Always searching for something that can't be seen

Let me fly, let me fly

Let me fly, let me fly

さまざまな人生 知りながら

Knowing many different lives,

街は何も言わない

The city says nothing

すべてそのままに受け止めて

It simply takes it all as it is,

今日も暮れてゆく

And the day draws to a close

走る高速道路は光の帯ね

The freeway you drive on is a belt of light

このまま行けばマンハッタン

Keep going and you'll reach Manhattan

軽いリズムで すぎてゆく日々の中

In these days that pass by with a light rhythm,

このきらめき ひとつあればいい

Just that one radiance is enough

ここはいつでも不思議な街クリスタル・シティー

This is always a mysterious town, the Crystal City

そうよ 今日もあなたを待ってる

Yes, it's waiting for you today as well

ここはいつでも不思議な街クリスタル・シティー

This is always a mysterious town, the Crystal City

そうよ 今日もあなたを待ってる

Yes, it's waiting for you today as well

ここはいつでも不思議な街クリスタル・シティー

This is always a mysterious town, the Crystal City

そうよ 今日もあなたを待ってる

Yes, it's waiting for you today as well

ここはいつでも不思議な街クリスタル・シティー

This is always a mysterious town, the Crystal City
