Long Season
Fishmans Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yuuguredoki wo futari de hashitteyuku
Running in the evening twilight just two of us
風を呼んで 君を呼んで
Kaze wo yonde, kimi wo yonde
Calling the wind, calling you
東京の街のスミからスミまで
Tokyo no machi no sumi kara sumi made
From Tokyo city corner to corner
僕ら半分 夢の中
Bokura hanbun yume no naka
We are half in a dream.
くちずさむ歌はなんだ?
Kuchizusamu uta wa nanda?
What is the song are you humming?
思い出すことはなんだ?
Omoidasu koto wa nanda?
What things can you remember?
バックミラーから落っこちて行くのは
Bakkumiraa kara okkotite yuku no wa
The thing that falls from back mirror
うれしいような さみしいような
Ureshiiyouna samishiiyouna
It seems happy, maybe lonely
風邪薬でやられちまったみたいな
Kazegusuri de yararetimatta mitaina
Like affected by a cold medicine
そんな そんな 気分で
Sonna sonna kibun de
In such a mood
走ってる 走ってる 走ってる 走ってる
Hashitteru hashitteru hashitteru hashitteru
I'm running. Running. Running. Running.
くちずさむ歌はなんだ?
Kuchizusamu uta wa nanda?
What is the song are you humming?
思い出すことはなんだ?
Omoidasu koto wa nanda?
What things can you remember?
僕ら半分 夢の中
Bokura hanbun yume no naka...
We are half in a dream.
The song Long Season by Fishmans is a reflective and nostalgic journey through the streets of Tokyo at dusk. The lyrics describe two people running together, calling out to the wind and each other as they make their way through the city. They pass through every corner of Tokyo, from one end to the other, all while half-living in a dream-like state. As they drive on, the singer takes notice of the other person's humming and wonders what song it is, and then asks what memories they can recall. The journey is bittersweet, as they feel both happy and lonely, like they're under the influence of cold medicine.
The lyrics of this song create a dreamlike, almost ethereal atmosphere. The imagery of running through the city at dusk, of passing from one end to the other, and of being half in a dream, all contribute to this feeling. The use of repetition, both in the phrases "calling the wind, calling you" and "running, running, running," lends a certain hypnotic quality to the song. The lyrics, coupled with the haunting, melancholic melody, make Long Season an evocative and emotional piece that invites the listener to close their eyes and imagine the sights, sounds, and feelings of Tokyo at dusk.

fishmans - long seasons
The two of us driving at dusk
Calling the wind
Calling you
From one end of the city of Tokyo to the other
We were halfway in a dream
What is that humming song?
What do you remember?**
Watching the sunset in the rearview mirror
Feeling kinda happy, feeling kinda lonely
Seems I've been messed up by my cold medicine
Like that, in that kind of mood
Driving, Driving, Driving, Driving
What is that humming song?
What do you remember?**
GET ROUND* IN THE SEASON
The two of us driving at dusk
Calling the wind
Calling you
From one end of the city of Tokyo to the other
We were half way in a dream

I’m happy that I was born in a generation where I have free access to this album and was able to find. Had I been alive when it came out and where I live, I would’ve never found it.

Fishmans was not a major artist in Japan, but rather a niche artist in a subculture that was popular with a certain segment of the population. And the people who attended Fishmans' live performances had good taste in clothes.
I was kind of happy about that at the time.
@Shaker626
Every generation has a special artist like this. I wonder where the kids of Japan wear their cool clothes today.
