You loved to watch the sunset From Watarase Bridge You said I was raised in a beautiful place And that you'd like to live here You came all the way here on the train Just to see me I still haven't forgotten Those days Even now when I go to Yakumo Shrine I say a prayer for you If I could have just one wish I'd like to go back to that time Do you remember the public phone Right on the corner by the barber? Yesterday I wanted to call you And I picked up the receiver time and again Not long ago I went down on the bank of the Watarase River And just watched it flow The north wind was very chilly And I caught a cold It wasn't anyone's fault I knew you couldn't live here I thought it over and worried about it But I can't live anywhere but here Twilight falls again On these streets you said you loved The wide-open sky and the distant mountains These streets we walked together These streets with the beautiful sunset
