Romanized lyrics
Toukyou lonely night
Awai hodo ni motomete shimau wa
I say nai good bye
Fureru hodo ni wasurerarenaku naru wa
Nabiku koi mo susumanai no
Kimi no me ni utsuranai
Keredo iro no nai yomichi wo kakeru wa
Toukyou lonely night
Awai hodo ni motomete shimau wa
I say nai good bye
Fureru hodo ni wasurerarenaku naru wa
Kimi to no tsuzuki ni you ga aru
Tadashiku narenai yoru mo aru
Tayori nai kotoba mo
Narabu uso mo itoshiku miete shimau
Soba ni itai no
Kuchisaki bakari wa ii yo
Awai kitai wo tashikametai kara
Sotto hada de wakaru made kanjitotte
Kono mama namida ga yamu made
Kawaku made kasa ni natte?
Kokoro ga nureru wa
Toukyou lonely night
Awai hodo ni motomete shimau wa
I say nai good bye
Fureru hodo ni wasurerarenaku naru
Taitei kankei nai
Omou hodo ni nemurenaku naru wa
Ai mo korinai
Abiru hodo ni hanarerarenaku naru wa
Japanese lyrics
東京 lonely night
淡いほどに求めてしまうわ
I say ない good bye
触れるほどに 忘れられなくなるわ
なびく恋も 進まないの
君の目に 映らない
けれど 色のない 夜道を駆けるわ
東京 lonely night
淡いほどに求めてしまうわ
I say ない good bye
触れるほどに 忘れられなくなるわ
君との続きに用がある
正しくなれない夜もある
頼りない言葉も
並ぶ嘘も 愛しく見えてしまう
そばに居たいの
口先ばかりはいいよ
淡い期待を 確かめたいから
そっと肌で 分かるまで 感じ取って
このまま 涙が止むまで
乾くまで 傘になって？
心が濡れるわ
東京 lonely night
淡いほどに求めてしまうわ
I say ない good bye
触れるほどに忘れられなくなる
大抵関係ない
思うほどに眠れなくなるわ
愛も懲りない
浴びるほどに離れられなくなるわ
Official English translation
Tokyo, lonely night
The smallest of hopes keeps me around
I say, "No, good bye"
The more we touch, the less I'm able to forget
A yielding love never lasts
I'm not the one in your eyes
But I'm still running on the grayscale streets tonight
Tokyo, lonely night
The smallest of hopes keeps me around
I say, "No, good bye"
The more we touch, the less I'm able to forget
You and I have unfinished business
There are nights I can't compose myself
Your unreliable words
And your endless lies, I miss them
I want to be with you
Enough with empty promises
I want to give this glimpse of hope a chance
Gently touch me until I can feel it
Until my tears stop falling
Until they dry, be my umbrella
Or my soul will be drenched
Tokyo, lonely night
The smallest of hopes keeps me around
I say, "No, good bye"
The more we touch, the less I'm able to forget
It doesn't matter anyway
The more I think, the less I can sleep
Love never learns
The more soaked I am, the more I can't stay away
