エルマ [Elma] [English translation]

I know I'm a liar, I admit it

still, still Elma it hurts

even though it's time to say goodbye

I'll sing until the darkening night arrives

Me and Elma, in the morning sunlight shining through the trees

are you still sleepy?

as the early summer begins, we approach the forest of May

Walking with the dew from the flowers on our faces

see, they're like tear drops

Let's yawn like this

if you want we can even sit in a chair

There's nothing that can't be forgiven

you can become kinder

Like this, in some far away country

you're lying sprawled out in a shallow summer

without shedding tears or saying words

without knowing the deepness of the common night

I know I'm a liar, I admit it

still, still Elma it hurts

even though it's time to say goodbye

I'll sing until the darkening night arrives

if you don't see difficult or painful things you won't understand them

with your eyes closed you ran away

walking a moonlit path

cramped rooms, cold nights

sleepy afternoons, lonely mornings

in the words of farewell, I'm looking at your face

Like this, in some far away country

you're lying sprawled out in a shallow summer

without shedding tears or saying words

simply looking at the blueness of the sky

simply not knowing of the ending between us

I know I'm a liar, I admit it

still, still Elma it hurts

even though it's time to say goodbye

I'll sing until the darkening night arrives
