Sandcastle
[Lyrics/Music: Tatsurou]

The yukata matches well
your regretful¹ smiling face
Unable to fully recollect it all²
I tear off my heart

For one short summer
the fireworks of love were raining down on us
Fleeting blossoms
The red yarn is collected

I avoided you in the end
unable to fulfil my promise
A wave washed away
the sandcastle of a summer’s day


¹  “kanashige na” = “sad, regretful, full of grieve, with a heavy heart”
²  “suku na sugiru omoide ni” = “be too little in memory”

Translated by Eurydike.
