Lyrics

Japanese

青い渚を走り 恋の季節がやってくる
夢と希望の大空に 君が待っている
熱い放射にまみれ 濡れた身体にキッスして
同じ波はもう来ない 逃がしたくない

君を守ってやるよと 神に誓った夜なのに
弱気な性と裏腹なままに 身体疼いてる

だから好きだと言って 天使になって
そして笑って もう一度
せつない胸に波音が打ちよせる
いつか君をさらって 彼氏になって
口づけ合って 愛まかせ 終わりなき夏の誘惑に
人は彷徨う 恋は陽炎
嗚呼…蘇る

Romaji

aoi nagisa wo hashiri koi no kisetsu ga yatte kuru
yume to kibou no oozora ni kimi ga matteiru
atsui housha ni mamire nureta karada ni KISS shite
onaji nami wa mou konai nigashitakunai

kimi wo matte yaru koto kami ni chikatta yoru nano ni
yowakina saga to urahara na mama ni karada uzuitteru

dakara sukida to itte tenshi ni natte
soshite waratte mou ichido
setsunai mune ni namioto ga uchiyoseru
itsuka kimi wo saratte kareshi ni natte
kuchizuke atte aimakase owarinaki natsu no yuuwaku ni
hito wa samayou koi wa kagerou
aa... yomigaeru

English

Running along the blue shore,
the season of love has arrived
You await in the vast sky of dreams and hopes

Covered in a heat wave,
kissing your wet body
The same wave won't come again,
I don't want it to get away

Though I swore to god
that I'd protect you tonight
The way it's so opposite
my timid nature makes my body throb

So say you love me
Become my angel
And then laugh once more
The sound of waves pounds my aching heart

Someday, I'll take you way
And become your man
And we'll kiss together, in the arms of love
In the seduction of the endless summer
People wander, and romance is a haze
Oh... it's coming back to me
