JP Cooper は少し前の記事、PerfectStrangersで出会ったんですど、この曲も素敵です。
15の時の思い出をこんな風に歌で残しておけるなんて素敵です。この曲は私のセプテンバーソングです。もう15じゃないけど。
"September Song"
JP cooperOur love was strong as a lion
Soft as the cotton you lie in
Times we got hot like an iron
You and I
僕たちの恋はライオンみたいに無敵で
君が寝そべっているコットンみたいに柔らかく
僕たちが過ごした日々はまるで、焼けた鉄みたいに、熱かったよ
君と僕と
Our hearts had never been broken
We were so innocent darling
We used to talk 'til the morning
You and I
僕たちのこの想いは一生ものだね
僕らはとっても純粋だった
朝までずっと話していたよね
僕たちさ
We had that mixtape on every weekend
Had it repeating, had it repeating
週末になるとテープを持って一緒に聞いたね
何度もなんども、繰り返してさ
You were my September Song, summer lasted too long
君は僕のセプテンバーソングだ
君と過ごした夏は長すぎたよ
Time moves so slowly, when you're only fifteen
時間がゆっくりすぎていく
君はまだ15歳だったね
You were my September Song, tell me where have you gone
君は僕のセプテンバーソングだったんだ
君はいまどこへ行ってしまったんだろう
Do you remember me, we were only fifteen
覚えてるかい、僕たちまだ15歳だったんだよ
And I, I remember the chorus
僕は今でもあの歌声を覚えてる
They were singing it for us
あれは僕たちのことを歌ってるみたいだった
You were my September song
君は僕のセプテンバーソングだった
Tell me where have you gone
Do you remember me?
君は今どこにいるんだ？
We were only fifteen
僕たち、15歳だったんだよ
Sometimes I think that I see your
Face in the strangest of places
ときどき今でも君を知らないところで見る気がするんだ
Down on the underground station
Passing by
地下鉄の駅ですれ違った気がした
I get a mad sense of danger
僕は怖くてしかたないんだ
Feel like my heart couldn't take it
耐えきれないほど辛くなる
Cause if we met we'd be strangers
You and I
だって今僕たちが出会っても、まるで知らない人みたいになってしまうだろう
Still I play that mixtape every weekend
僕は今でも週末になったら
昔の君と聞いたテープを聴いてるよ
Got it repeating
なんどもなんども
Got it repeating
繰り返して聴いてるんだよ
You were my September song
Summer lasted too long
Time moves so slowly (so slowly)
When you're only fifteen
You were my September song
Tell me where have you gone?
Do you remember me?
We were only fifteen
And I, I remember the chorus
僕は今でもあの歌を覚えてるよ
They were singing it for us
あれは僕たちのための歌声だったね
I hear that September song
その歌がいまも聞こえるよ
That I'm singing along
Thinking about you and me
君のことを思い出しながら僕は口ずさむ
Oh what a melody
なんていい曲なんだろうな
And as the years go by
あれから何年も経ったけど
You will still be my, be my
君は今でも僕の
(September song)
September song
You are my
君は僕の
(September song)
思い出のセプテンバーソングなんだ
You were my September song
Summer lasted too long
Time moves so slowly (remember)
When you're only fifteen
You were my September song
Tell me where have you gone
Do you remember me?
We were only fifteen
And I, I remember the chorus
They were singing it for us
You were my September song
I remember the chorus
They were singing it for us
