桜 - いきものがかり

Sakura by Ikimonogakari. Great song! Enjoy...

*さくら　ひらひら　舞い降りて落ちて
揺れる　想いのたけを　抱きしめた
君と　春に　願いし　あの夢は
今も見えているよ　さくら舞い散る*

電車から　見えたのは
いつかのおもかげ
ふたりで通った　春の大橋
卒業の　ときが来て
君は故郷(まち)を出た
色づく川辺に　あの日を探すの

それぞれの道を選び
ふたりは春を終えた
咲き誇る明日(みらい)は
あたしを焦らせて
小田急線の窓に
今年もさくらが映る
君の声が　この胸に
聞こえてくるよ

(*くり返し)

書きかけた　手紙には
　「元気でいるよ」と
小さな嘘は　見透かされるね
めぐりゆく　この街も　
春を受け入れて
今年もあの花が　つぼみをひらく

君がいない日々を超えて
　あたしも大人になっていく
こうやって全て忘れていくのかな
「本当に好きだったんだ」
さくらに手を伸ばす
この想いが　今　春に　つつまれていくよ

さくら　ひらひら　舞い降りて落ちて
揺れる　想いのたけを　抱き寄せた
君が　くれし　強き　あの言葉は
今も　胸に残る　さくら舞いゆく

さくら　ひらひら　舞い降りて落ちて
揺れる　想いのたけを　抱きしめた
遠き　春に　夢見し　あの日々は
空に消えていくよ

さくら　ひらひら　舞い降りて落ちて
春のその向こうへと歩き出す
君と　春に　誓いし　この夢を　強く
胸に抱いて　さくら舞い散る

The cherry blossoms fell, fluttering down
Embracing every bit of my fluttering love
Even now, I’m dreaming the dream I prayed for with you that spring
The cherry blossoms scatter

From the train I could see
The traces of one day
The big bridge we crossed together
Graduation time came
And you left town
On the colourful riverbank, I search for that day

We went our separate ways
And brought our spring to an end
My future is in full bloom
But it fills me with panic
This year, once again, the cherry blossoms are reflected
In the window of the Odakyuu train
In my heart
I hear your voice

The cherry blossoms fell, fluttering down
Embracing every bit of my fluttering love
Even now, I’m dreaming the dream I prayed for with you that spring
The cherry blossoms scatter

The start of my letter to you
Says “I’m doing OK”
You’ll see through that little lie, won’t you?
Even the town going past
Is taking in the spring
The flowers are opening their buds again this year

I’ll get through these days without you
And I, too, will grow up
Will I forget everything?
“I really loved you”
I hold out my hands to the cherry blossoms
Now my love is wrapped in the spring

The cherry blossoms fell, fluttering down
Embracing every bit of my fluttering love
Even now, the strong words you gave me
Remain in my heart; the cherry blossoms dance

The cherry blossoms fell, fluttering down
Embracing every bit of my fluttering love
Those days I dreamed of on that distant spring day
Disappear into the sky

The cherry blossoms fall, fluttering down
And I walk out into the spring
I clutch the dream I promised you that spring
Tightly to my chest; the cherry blossoms dance


Acoustic version is different from the original one, as acoustic version is short of three paragraphs of the lyrics compared with the original one. Above is the lyrics for original version, but i liked the acoustic version more as it's more soothing to listen to, so... that should solve your curiousity just in case. =D
