バンドをやってる友達
作詞：坂本慎太郎
友達がいる 夕べステージで
君は歌ってた まるでスターのように
恋人の歌 バンドがやってた
僕はその歌 すごくいいと思った
初めてギターに触れるような
本当に恋をしてるような
今すぐ何かやれるような
そんな気分さ
友達がいる からのフロアーで
君は踊ってた まるでオモチャのように
恋人の歌 バンドがやってた
僕の記憶が 合ってるとすれば
初めてギターに触れるような
本当に恋をしてるような
もう一度何かやれるような
不思議な気分さ

My Friend Plays in the Band
Lyrics: Sakamoto Shintarou
Trans.: Alex Fyffe
My friend, last night on stage
you were singing like you were a star
The band was playing a love song
I thought it was a really great song
It was the kind of feeling you get
like touching a guitar for the first time
like falling deeply in love for the first time
like something could happen at any moment
My friend, you were on the floor
dancing like a wind-up toy
The band was playing a love song
or at least that’s how I remember it
It was a magical feeling
like touching a guitar for the first time
like falling deeply in love for the first time
like something could happen again at any moment
