Romanized lyrics
Yuugure no kousaten
Ieji isogu hitotachi no
Kokoro ni aru shiawase ga
Mietara ii noni
Kyou mo takusan naita yo na
Kuyashii koto atta yo na
Sorezore no kizu kakushite
Waratteiru no
Hontou wa yasashiku shitakatta
Aitsu no misu ni
Okotte shimatta no wa kitto
Yoyuu nakatta kara de...
Kaerou boku no basho ni
Kaerou kimi no basho ni
Buki wo oroshite yoroi wo nuide
Tada no inochi ni naru
Ashita no koto wa asu ni
Tamani wa makasete
Tokete shimaisou na orenji no
Mukougawa e kaerou
Itsuka kuru mirai ni wa
Kibou ga kitto aru hazu to
Ikudo mo akiramete kita
Kinou ga atta
Hito no kioku ga furitsumoru
Machi wa tamani kanashige de
Soredemo omoi wo daite
Aruiteyuku no
Taisetsu ni shitai hazu na no ni
Tsumetai kotoba
Butsukete shimatta koukai ga
Ima mo mune ni nokoru yo
Kaerou boku no basho ni
Kaerou kimi no basho ni
Hoshi ga furashita kirameki abite
Yoru ni yurusaretai
Nagareru toki no naka de
Bokura meguriai
Guuzen onnaji tomarigi ni
Mi wo yoseatteiru
Ashita no koto wa asu ni
Tamani wa makasete
Tokete shimaisou na orenji no
Mukougawa e kaerou
English translation
At the twilight intersection
It would be nice if we could see
The happiness in the hearts
Of the people rushing home
Today, we cried a lot again
And there were frustrating things, right?
Each of us hides our wounds
And smiles
Honestly, I wanted to be kind
But I got angry at their mistake
Surely because I didn't have the composure...
Let's go home, to my place
Let's go home, to your place
Lower your weapons, take off your armor
And become just human
Leave tomorrow's worries for tomorrow
Let's entrust them occasionally
Let's go back to the other side
Of the orange that seems about to melt
In the future that will come someday
There must be hope
Yesterday, we've given up many times
But it existed
The city where people's memories accumulate
Sometimes looks sad
Yet, still holding onto our feelings
We keep walking
Even though we should treasure it
Cold words
That we threw out in regret
Still remain in our hearts
Let's go home, to my place
Let's go home, to your place
Bathing in the twinkle the stars showered down
I want to be forgiven by the night
Amidst the flow of time
We meet each other
By chance, on the same stopping point
We lean against each other
Leave tomorrow's worries for tomorrow
Let's entrust them occasionally
Let's go back to the other side
Of the orange that seems about to melt
Japanese lyrics
夕暮れの交差点
家路いそぐ人たちの
心にある幸せが
見えたらいいのに
今日もたくさん泣いたよな
悔しいことあったよな
それぞれの傷 隠して
笑っているの
本当は優しくしたかった
あいつのミスに
怒ってしまったのはきっと
余裕なかったからで…
帰ろう ぼくの場所に
帰ろう きみの場所に
武器をおろして 鎧を脱いで
ただの命になる
明日のことは明日に
たまには任せて
溶けてしまいそうな橙の
向こう側へ帰ろう
いつか来る未来には
希望がきっとあるはずと
幾度も諦めてきた
昨日があった
人の記憶が降り積もる
街はたまに悲しげで
それでも想いを抱いて
歩いてゆくの
大切にしたいはずなのに
冷たい言葉
ぶつけてしまった後悔が
今も胸に残るよ
帰ろう ぼくの場所に
帰ろう きみの場所に
星が降らしたきらめき浴びて
夜に許されたい
流れる時のなかで
ぼくら巡り合い
偶然おんなじ止まり木に
身を寄せ合っている
明日のことは明日に
たまには任せて
溶けてしまいそうな橙の
向こう側へ帰ろう
