残り火

今さら泣くなんて今さら泣くなんて
私もバカだね ほほづえついて
心がやせてく 夕暮れどきは
あいつの面影 掘り起こしていた
涙いっとき ほんのひととき
そうさ消えてるはずの残り火さ
 
信じていたなんて信じていたなんて
お笑い種だよ 今繰り向けば
堂々めぐりのよくある恋さ
あいつは素早く 闇に逃げ込んだ
恋いはいっとき ほんのひととき
そうさ時々うずく残り火さ
 
憎んでいたなんて愛していたなんて
初めの時から わかってたのさ
一人の男と二人の女
憎んだ分だけひきずられてきた
痛みいっとき ほんのひととき
そうさそんな恋の残り火さ

Embers

Now I'm crying, now I'm crying,
I'm a fool who resting my chin on my hand.
In the evening when my heart fades,
I've been remaining his trace.
And then tears well up, only a little time.
Dying embers which should disappear, I know.
 
I trusted him, I trusted him,
Looking back now, how laughable I was.
It's a common love story to go around in circles.
Quickly he has run away to the darkness.
Love is over, only a little time.
Dying embers burn my heart again and again, I know.
 
I hated him, and I loved him,
Surely I knew it from the beginning.
One man to two women there was.
So, I was easily swayed by him, as much as I hate him.
My heart aches, only a little time.
Dying embers of love, I know.
