Bonnie Pink Lyrics & Translation
Rise and Shine
Golden Tears

doushite tatteita n darou
kare ni deatte wasureta no tanjun na koto o
“kimi dake o” tte iu kawari ni
What did you use your love and your eyes for?
kako no kagi wa nakushita to itte hoshii dake

doushite nakete kuru n darou
kare no egao de hodokareta kokoro no ito
“aishiteru” tte iu kawari ni
What was I doing? What kept me going?
tsuki to taiyou o dare to nagameteita n darou

kare to nara Rise and Shine hajimari wa tayasui mono
iki o shite Rise and Shine asa no tobira o tatakou

zutto sagashiteita n darou
sabishisa to ka kanashisa o shitta hi kara
umareta toki wa hitori de
Life is a journey to find a missing piece
saigo wa anata to narande itai kara

kare to nara Rise and Shine tsuyoku natta ki ga suru mono
iki o shite Rise and Shine asa no tobira o tatakou

kare to nara Rise and Shine hajimari wa tayasui mono
iki o shite Rise and Shine asa no tobira o tatakou

anata ga kaaten o akeru toki
saisho no hikari abinagara mimimoto de “Rise and Shine”
watashi wa massugu sora o aogi
saisho no egao misenagara utaidasu kyou no uta

kare to nara Rise and Shine tsuyoku natta ki ga suru mono
iki o shite Rise and Shine asa no tobira o tatakou

kare to nara Rise and Shine hajimari wa tayasui mono
iki o shite Rise and Shine asa no tobira o tatakou
Why were the simple things I forgot,
meeting him, standing out?
Instead of saying “Only you”
What did you use your love and your eyes for?
I only want you to say you forgot the key to the past

Why are my heartstrings,
that fell apart at his smile, moved to tears?
Instead of saying “I love you”
What was I doing? What kept me going?
I’d probably been looking at the moon and the sun with someone

If it’s with him, rise and shine – a beginning is an easy thing
Taking a breath, rise and shine – I’ll knock on the morning’s door

I’d probably been searching forever
Since the day I knew loneliness, and sorrow
When we’re born, we’re alone
Life is a journey to find a missing piece
Because at the end I want to be lined up next to you

If it’s with him, rise and shine – I feel like I’ve grown strong
Taking a breath, rise and shine – I’ll knock on the morning’s door

If it’s with him, rise and shine – a beginning is an easy thing
Taking a breath, rise and shine – I’ll knock on the morning’s door

When you open the curtains,
while basking in the first light, it’s “Rise and Shine” close to your ears
Looking straight up to the sky,
while giving my first smile, I’ll start to sing a song today

If it’s with him, rise and shine – I feel like I’ve grown strong
Taking a breath, rise and shine – I’ll knock on the morning’s door

If it’s with him, rise and shine – a beginning is an easy thing
Taking a breath, rise and shine – I’ll knock on the morning’s door
