Lyrics
Verse 1:
City lights in Shinjuku, the night is young,
Gathered with friends, laughter’s just begun.
Drinking green bottles, our spirits take flight,
Sharing secrets under Tokyo's neon light.
Chorus:
But in the haze of sake, I lost my way,
(A moment went astray)
影の中で迷って、今も消えない.
(A mistake in the shadows, that won't just fade away)
Holding on to memories, of guilt I can’t defy,
(Guilt I can't deny)
For one fleeting temptation, beneath Shinjuku sky.
(Beneath the Shinjuku sky)
Verse 2:
When the laughter faded, and the night grew old,
A stranger's touch, in the dark, felt so bold.
Lost in a dream, a fleeting desire,
Now the dawn breaks, and my heart's on fire.
Chorus:
But in the haze of sake, I lost my way,
(A moment went astray)
影の中で迷って、今も消えない.
(A mistake in the shadows, that won't just fade away)
Holding on to memories, of guilt I can’t defy,
(Guilt I can't deny)
For one fleeting temptation, beneath Shinjuku sky.
(Beneath the Shinjuku sky)
Bridge:
I see my man's gentle eyes, full of love so true,
But the secret I carry, tears my soul in two.
In the silence, I remember, the warmth of that night,
But regret shadows every day, in the morning light.
Verse 3:
Back in Harajuku, where cherry blossoms bloom,
I relive that night, like a ghost in the room.
Drinking green bottles, a night of passion,
A night that haunts me, a forbidden attraction.
Chorus:
But in the haze of sake, I lost my way,
(A moment went astray)
影の中で迷って、今も消えない.
(A mistake in the shadows, that won't just fade away)
Holding on to memories, of guilt I can’t defy,
(Guilt I can't deny)
For one fleeting temptation, beneath Harajuku sky.
(Beneath the Harajuku sky)
Outro:
So raise a glass with caution, let lessons linger near,
In the heart of Shinjuku, where neon lights glow bright,
I'll carry this regret, whispering in my ear,
(I’ll carry this regret, forevermore)
As the Tokyo night fades into morning light.
(Forevermore)
But in the haze of sake, I lost my way,
(A moment went astray)
影の中で迷って、今も消えない.
(A mistake in the shadows, that won't just fade away)
Holding on to memories, of guilt I can’t defy,
(Guilt I can't deny)
For one fleeting temptation, beneath Harajuku sky.
(Beneath the Harajuku sky)
