A single person leaving the endless city sprawl I reread your letter, a memory adrift
David We’re so far apart, in time and place Leave them here Your quiet smile, the songs of days long gone
However hard each day was, you stared their way
You laugh, you cry all the time. Talk to me
David We’re so close, feeling the same I’ll be waiting right here You hear the melody, don’t you? We’re all waiting
Nice and loud, I’d like to shout your name My friend David
hateshinaku hirogaru machi kara hitori hanarete yomikaesu anata no tegami tadayou omoide
David watashi-tachi wa konna ni tooi jikan mo basho mo koko e oite itte shizuka na hohoemi wo tooi hibi no uta wo
donna ni katsurakatta hibi wo anata wa mitsumeta
yoku warai yoku naku anata no hanashi wo kikasete
David watashi-tachi wa konna ni chikai onaji omoi de koko de matte iru yo kikoeru desho merodi minna de matte’ru yo
ooki na koe de sakebitai anata no namae wo watashi no tomodachi David
