黄昏の Bay City
Junko Yagami Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

シルク・クレイの風をすりぬけ
異国の船 数えてゆけば
光りはじめた 街は横文字
人の波に とびこむ
過ぎた恋も 粋なドラマに変えて
コートのえりを 立てたら
いつでも不思議な
Twilight Bay City
迷路のような 愛を探して
黄昏 あぶない Twilight Bay City
くちびる 噛んだ 彼女たち
古いテラスで からむ視線は
似てる同志の サインさ
肌の色も 気に止めずすれ違う
自由が 似合う 夜へと
すべてが眩しい Twilight Bay City
街の鼓動に 身体あずけて
1人のオン・ステージ
Twilight Bay City
主役になれる ひとときさ
Take it to me
今夜だけは かなわぬ夢と
肩を並べて
すべてを包むよ Twilight Bay City
孤独もとかす 熱い時間さ
女神のため息 Twilight Bay City
自分に環る ひとときさ
すべてを包むよ Twilight Bay City




孤独もとかす 熱い時間さ
女神のため息 Twilight Bay City

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Bay City" by Junko Yagami describe a cityscape that is exotic and filled with foreign ships. The city starts to light up with the presence of neon signs and people from different backgrounds. It portrays a bustling city with a wave of people. The song then goes on to talk about how past loves can be transformed into sophisticated dramas, and wearing a coat with a raised collar adds a sense of mystery and allure.


The chorus talks about searching for a love that feels like a maze in the twilight, danger lurking in the air. The lyrics mention the dangerous allure of the women in the city, with their lips bitten, and how their gaze entangles in the old terraces. The similarity of their comradeship is signaled in their glances and signs. The song emphasizes how in this city, people pass by each other without paying attention to differences in skin color, as freedom suits the night.


The lyrics continue to describe the overwhelming brightness of the city, with its vibrant rhythm pulsating through the body. The song then focuses on a single person on stage, highlighting a moment where one can become the singer. The bridge brings a sense of longing and desire, with unattainable dreams being shared and embraced for one night. The song concludes by referring to the city as a place that envelops everything, where even loneliness can be dissolved in the heat of intense moments, and where the sighs of a goddess can be heard.

歌詞:
ああ あなたを追って
黄昏のBay City
ああ めぐり逢えたら
黙って抱きとめて

煙草の香り 冷えきったKiss
投げただけで あなたは消えた
素直になれば つづいてた愛
シーズン・オフの海は笑い
風が凍るわ

こごえきった カモメみたいよ
黄昏のBay City
ああ あなたの好きな
港が暮れてゆく

若さはたぶん 見えないナイフ
もつれ合って 心が切れた
馬鹿ね今頃 愛が痛いの
あなただけが この傷口
ふさげる男よ

空が海を 抱くみたいに
愛し合えた奇跡を
もう一度だけ…もう一度だけ…
幻でいい

ああ あなたを追って
黄昏のBay City
ああ めぐり逢えたら
黙って抱きとめて
letra:
Oh, persiguiéndote
Bay City en el crepúsculo
Oh, si puedes conocerme
Cállate y abrázame

Aroma de tabaco, beso frío
Desapareciste con solo tirar
Si te vuelves honesto, el amor que ha continuado
El mar fuera de temporada se ríe
El viento se congela

Parece una gaviota
Bay City en el crepúsculo
Oh tu favorito
El puerto se esta hundiendo

La juventud es probablemente un cuchillo invisible
Enredado y con el corazón roto
Soy estupido, el amor duele hoy en dia
Solo tu eres esta herida
Un hombre para bloquear

Como el cielo abrazando el mar
Un milagro que pudiéramos amarnos
Solo una vez ... Solo una vez ...
Phantom está bien

Oh, persiguiéndote
Bay City en el crepúsculo
Oh, si puedes conocerme
Cállate y abrázameletra:
Oh, persiguiéndote

English lyrics:

A~h, I follow you to
The Bay city in twilight
A~h, and if I see you there
Just shut up and hold me

The smell of your cigarettes, and the cold kiss
You blew to me, and then you disappeared
If we had been honest, we’d still be in love
This winter sea is laughing at me
And the wind is freezing

I’m like one of the gulls, frozen to the spot
The Bay city in twilight
A~h, and your beloved
Harbor is growing dark

Youth is like, a hidden knife
We got tangled up, and my heart was cut open
And I feel so silly now, with this painful love
And you are the only man, who can heal this wound
The only man

Like the sky, embracing the sea
It was a miracle that we met
Just one more time, just one more time
Even just a vision of you

A~h, I follow you to
The Bay city in twilight
A~h, and if I see you there
Just shut up and hold me

A~h, I follow you to
The Bay city in twilight
A~h, and if I see you there
Just shut up and hold me
