LYRICS - ENGLISH TRANSLATION


Under the blazing sun, in the sticky heat

The grey forest of buildings melts away

The never-ending final exams

Tossing and turning, unable to sleep in the noise of the ashy city


Your swiftly appearing fantasy

It shines brightly like magic

The sound of breaking waves

Your smile when your hand reaches out to mine

 

Spread before your eyes is the ivory Milky Way

CONTEXT/EXPLANATION: Ivory is often used to represent purity/divinity and/or hope, peace and new beginnings

The golden season blooms,

Like our summer

No matter where we are,

No matter what season

If we’re together

Feel like summer

 

Your refreshing scent, your sparkling eyes

Make my heart flutter

Reality loses its strength

Even the Earth holds its breath

This moment becomes eternal

 

Under the hot sun

You and I become us

Over the grey city

There’s a flood of blue waves

 

Spread before your eyes is the ivory Milky Way

The golden season blooms,

Like our summer

No matter where we are,

No matter what season

If we’re together

Feel like summer

 

Even if autumn, winter and spring again come

If we are together

Above the golden sand, summer sea,

Under the hot sun


Within it, the promise of eternity shines brightly

If you imagine it

If you continue to believe

Then you’re there

 

Spread before your eyes is the ivory Milky Way

The golden season blooms,

Like our summer

No matter where we are,

No matter what season

If we’re together

Feel like summer
