Bonnie Pink Lyrics & Translation
Awa ni Natta / They Foamed Away
Surprise! single

awa ni natta haruka natsu no hi wa
awa ni natta itoshii natsu no hi wa

nido to konai ka no you ni
tada hajaida natsu wa sude ni
ashioto mo tatemo koto naku
mabuta ni kieta
kare no chairoi kami ga kaze ni hirugaerutabi ni
cherii kooku to shio no nioi
wakasugita tooi hi no koto
ano natsu wa... ano natsu wa...

chikyuu no uragawa mezashi
futari kugutta umi no soko wa
kowai hodo subete no hitei yori kuraku
kotoba wa ubawareta
atsui taiyou dake ga otte datta ano koro ni
kaerenai koto ni kidzukaseru
shashin yori iro aseta hada

kawaranai kokonattsu no kaori kara
yomigaeru kuttaku no nai kare no egao

awa ni natta haruka natsu no hi wa
awa ni natta itoshii natsu no hi wa

nigemadou  tabako no kemuri kara
yomigaeru kiekiwa no kanashii hanabi

awa ni natta haruka natsu no hi wa
awa ni natta itoshii natsu no hi wa
awa ni natta futari no natsu no hi wa
awa ni natta futari no natsu no hi wa
They foamed away – the days of that long-gone summer
They foamed away – the days of that beloved summer

Like stepping in the same river twice
It’s too late to go back to that carefree summer
There’s not even the sound of our footsteps left
Vanished before my eyes
is his light brown hair fluttering in the wind,
Cherry Coke, and the smell of salt water
The too-young, faraway days
of that summer... that summer...

Aiming for the other side of the world
The bottom of the ocean we dove into
was so scary, darker than all the denial
Words were snatched away
Only the hot sun was our pursuer then
My skin’s color faded more than a photograph
made me realize I wasn’t going home

Because of the unchanging scent of coconuts
his carefree smile is brought back to life

They foamed away – the days of that long-gone summer
They foamed away – the days of that beloved summer

Because of the cigarette smoke escaping
the sad fireworks on the verge of going out are brought back to life

They foamed away – the days of that long-gone summer
They foamed away – the days of that beloved summer
They foamed away – the days of our summer
They foamed away – the days of our summer
