ELLEGARDEN ELLEGARDEN BEST (1999-2008)歌詞
1.My Favorite Song

作詞:TAKESHI HOSOMI
作曲:TAKESHI HOSOMI

A sunny day
I wake up and I see I have overslept
I'm already late
No need to rush anymore
That feels so good

I've got a new stereo
That means I've got a new toy
I turned it on
I love the moment of picking a CD
Things are pretty simple around me
Days are quick to pass me by
All I wanna do is
to be with my favorite things

My favorite songs My favorite TV
shows are never ending
My favorite books My favorite radio
shows will never die
They echo inside me
No need to understand me

I light a cigarette
I'm still home
It's almost perfect to me
No one complains no matter how loud
my music is playing
Cause they are all at work
It's daytime
I won't do things I can do tomorrow
All I wanna do is
to be with my favorite things
My favorite songs My favorite TV
shows are never ending
My favorite books My favorite radio
shows will never die
My favorite songs My favorite TV
shows are never ending
My favorite books My favorite radio
shows will never die

Don't force me to be the way you are
Don't tell me if I am good or bad

I wonder why people do not live their lives
the way they really want to
Things are pretty easy around me
It may appear I'm wasting my time
But all I wanna do is
to be with my favorite things
My favorite songs My favorite TV
shows are never ending
My favorite books My favorite radio
shows will never die
My favorite songs My favorite TV
shows are never ending
My favorite books My favorite radio
shows will never die
My favorite songs
My favorite shows
Never end....
They echo inside me


2.風の日

作詞:TAKESHI HOSOMI
作曲:TAKESHI HOSOMI

こんな顏を見せるのは
ほんとは好きじゃないけど
僕だっていつも ピエロみたいに
笑えるわけじゃないから

雨の日には濡れて
晴れた日には乾いて
寒い日には震えてるのは當たり前だろ
次の日には忘れて
風の日には飛ぼうとしてみる
そんなもんさ

泣いたことのない君は
とても弱い人だから
誰かに見られて
優しくされると
崩れそうになるけど でも
雨の日には濡れて
晴れた日には乾いて
寒い日には震えてるのが當たり前だろ
次の日には忘れて
風の日には飛ぼうとしてみる
そんなもんさ 僕らはほら

It's OK
Go cry
Go smile
It's something good to do to live as you want
I'm on your side
Your life is all yours
So don't let other people force you to be good
Be kind to yourself
雨の日には濡れて
晴れた日には乾いて
寒い日には震えてるのは當たり前だろ
次の日には忘れて
風の日には飛ぼうとしてみる
だから
雪の日には凍えて
雷には怯えて
月の日には邊りがよく見えたりもしてて
次の日には忘れて
風の日には飛ぼうとしてみる
そんなもんさ 僕らはそんなもんさ


3.Middle of Nowhere

作詞:TAKESHI HOSOMI
作曲:TAKESHI HOSOMI

Lessons once learned are so hard to forget
Though they are simply papering over the cracks
You have been creating something
I have never had before
But can you deny that
You are at middle of nowhere

Do you think about your dream
When you are falling down
I can help you smile bravely
If you have something you really want
Do you think about your dream
When no one believes you
I can help you spread your wings
Though you claim
Though you claim you're not anyone
Anyone like me
Are you scared
Are you scared of me
You're not crazy
You're not unreal
You're just complicated

Think about your situation
Understand your refusal
Disagreement disappointment
Disapproval discontent
Your conviction your stubbornness
Your emotion your confusion
I won't deny you I won't ignore you
Do you hear me as I sing here

Do you think about your dream
When you are falling down
I can help you smile bravely
If you have something you really want
Do you think about your dream
When no one believes you
I can help you spread your wings
Though you claim
Though you claim you're not anyone
Anyone like me
Are you scared
Are you scared of me
You're not crazy
You're not unreal
You're just complicated

Think about your situation
Understand your refusal
Disagreement disappointment
Disapproval discontent
Your conviction your stubbornness
Your emotion your confusion
I won't deny you I won't ignore you
Do you hear me as I sing here


4.Can't Remember How We Used To Be

作詞:TAKESHI HOSOMI
作曲:TAKESHI HOSOMI

You said you are my match
But I don't think you are
I don't think you get me back

Why don't you see I have
the smallest interest in you
I don't blame you for getting mad

You want me so bad
That makes you crazy
But it doesn't matter
'Cause it does not make any difference for me

Hey break me if you can
You are someone I don't love until I die
I did but not anymore
Hey break me if you can
You are someone I don't mind
Can't remember how we used to be

I don't think you can imagine
You can't even guess how hard
How hard it was to get over you

You're the one who departed
I was just a kid to believe
Whatever you promised to me then

Now you want me so bad
That makes you sick
So what
Is that my fault
It does not make any difference for me

Hey break me if you can
You are someone I don't care until I die
I did but not anymore
Hey break me if you can
You are someone I don't mind
Can't remember how we used to be
It's over
We're done now
Disappointment was all you gave me
You're gone that day
I felt I died
I burned all your photographs
Are you gonna kill me again
No Way

Hey break me if you can
You are someone I don't love until I die
I did but not anymore
Hey break me if you can
You are someone I don't mind
Can't remember how we used to be


5.ジタ一バグ

作詞:TAKESHI HOSOMI
作曲:TAKESHI HOSOMI

たった一つのことが
今を迷わせてるんだ
數え切れないほど無くして
また拾い集めりゃいいさ

遠回りする度に
見えてきたこともあって
早く著くことが全てと
僕には思えなかった
間違ったことが
いつか君を救うから
數え切れないほど無くして
また拾い集めりゃいいさ

一切の情熱がかき消され
そうなときには
いつだって君の聲が
この暗闇を切り裂いてくれてる
いつかそんな言葉が
僕のものになりますように
そうなりますように

たった一つのことが
今を迷わせてるんだ
誰を信じたらいいのか
氣づけば樂なのに
初めからずっと
分かってたことがあって
そのレ一ルはまた途中で
途切れていたりするんだ

一切の情熱がかき消され
そうなときには
いつだって君の聲が
この暗闇を切り裂いてくれてる
いつかそんな言葉が
僕のものになりますように
そうなりますように
目を閉じて指先に意識を集めて
確かめる足元

一切の現實に
飲み迂まれそうなときには
いつだって君の聲が
この暗闇を切り裂いてくれてる
いつかそんな言葉が
僕のものになりますように
そうなりますように


6.金星

作詞:TAKESHI HOSOMI
作曲:TAKESHI HOSOMI

最後に笑うのは正直な奴だけだ
出し拔いて 立ち回って
手に入れたものはみんな
すぐに消えた
ねぇ この夜が終わる頃
僕らも消えていく
そう思えば 僕にとって
大事なことなんて
いくつもないと思うんだ

はっきりと言わない言葉は傷つける
恨まれることさえ出來ない
そんな風になりたくないよ
ねぇ この夜が終わる頃
僕らも消えていく
そう思えば 僕にとって
大事なことなんて
いくつもないと思うんだ

今はもう ねぇ 今はもう
ねぇ この夜が終わる頃
僕らも消えていく
そう思えば 君にとって
大事なことなんて
いくつもないと思うんだ


7.So Sad

作詞:TAKESHI HOSOMI
作曲:TAKESHI HOSOMI

I woke up from the dream of
the good days I was in
I took you home and you slept next to me
In the morning I could smell
the eggs you cooked for me
We were sure it'd last until we die

You asked me if I'd ever leave
I was meant to be next to you always
That was my reply
But something I have done has split us apart
And you are never coming back to me again
I'm dreaming of you
and I still think you're mine
I'm waiting for you and I never give up
No matter who appears I won't forget
I wish you knew that I'm yours until I die
I woke up to the sound of the doorbells ringing
One thing I know is it won't be you
Something I have done has split us apart
And you will never come back to me again

I'm dreaming of you
and I still think you're mine
I'm waiting for you and I never give up
No matter who appears I won't forget
I wish you knew that I'm yours until I die
Today I found the photograph of you and me
I'm so sad
Can I rewind all our time
And put it back to the place we were meant be


8.Supernova

作詞:TAKESHI HOSOMI
作曲:TAKESHI HOSOMI

My war is over
No resurrection
I guess I was scared of being that happy
She's a supernova I was reaching out for
I heard her footsteps fading away from me

No matter how hard I can try
I never think that I can fly
And now she has just turned her back to me
There is nothing I can do as well
But to dream her all the time
I'm a fuckup and I'm nuts so she's gone

My clumsy dancing on my tiptoe
She said she liked it
and I thought she's lying
Now I know she said that not to cheer me
But now it's too late
Fading away from me

No matter how hard I can try
I never think that I can fly
And now she has just turned her back to me
There is nothing I can do as well
But to dream her all the time
I'm a fuckup and I'm nuts so she's gone

Many things I left unsaid
A thousand miles away you're sleeping
Sometimes I can be a guy you wanted me to be
But only in my dreams
No matter how hard I can try
I never think that I can fly
And now she has just turned her back to me
There is nothing I can do as well
But to dream her all the time
I'm a fuckup and I'm nuts so she's gone
I'm a fuckup and I'm nuts so she's gone


9.スタ一フィッシュ

作詞:TAKESHI HOSOMI
作曲:TAKESHI HOSOMI

おとぎ話の續きを見たくて
すぐ側のものは見えなかった
平氣になった媚びた笑いも
まとめて全部剝がれ落ちるような
綺麗なものを見つけたから
また見えなくなる前に
こんな星の夜は
全てを投げ出したって
どうしても君に會いたいと思った
こんな星の夜は
君がいてくれたなら
何を話そうとか

ほどけかけてた靴のひもを
いじりまわして氣を紛らわす
あと2驛がバカに遠い
諦めないなら焦る事もないさ
綺麗なものを見つけたから
また見えなくなる前に
こんな星の夜は
全てを投げ出したって
どうしても君に會いたいと思った
こんな星の夜は
君がいてくれたなら
何を話そうとか

I thought there is no such thing as
Unchanging over a thousand years
I wonder how I could miss it
My friends
I thought there is no such thing as
Unchanging until it ends
I wonder how I could miss it

こんな星の夜は
全てを投げ出したって
どうしても君に會いたいと思った
こんな星の夜は
君がいてくれたなら
何を話そうとか


10.Make A Wish

作詞:TAKESHI HOSOMI
作曲:TAKESHI HOSOMI

Sunday is over
We are all going home
No reason to stay here
But no one has made a move
We know that for sure
Nothing lasts forever
But we have too many things
gone too fast
Let's make a wish
Easy one
That you are not the only one
And someone's there next to you
holding your hand

Make a wish
You'll be fine
Nothing's gonna let you down
Someone's there next to you
holding you now

Make a wish
Easy one
That you are not the only one
And someone's there next to you
holding your hand
Make a wish
You'll be fine
Nothing's gonna let you down
Someone's there next to you holding you
Along the paths you walk


11.Pizza Man

作詞:TAKESHI HOSOMI
作曲:TAKESHI HOSOMI

Tell me someone knows the
guy whose name is Daniel
I've been looking for him
more than 20 minutes
I guess he is starving
Or he could be aiming
to use this to learn about fractions
Got to find him quickly
putting his aim aside
I should do what I can
Ask that ma'am if she knows
Hey ma'am have you heard of
a guy whose occupation
is mathematician around here?
Am I in wrong condo?
No way I have checked it 3 times or more
So how come I can't find him?
Tell me someone knows the guy
whose name is Daniel
Tu tu tu...

Wait he could be aiming
to learn about a pie chart
That explains why he choose
'Pepperoni Quattro'
But in that case I guess
Sorry to be smart ass
He had better use pies instead
Am I in wrong condo?
No way I have checked it 3 times or more
So how come I can't find him?
Tell me someone knows the guy
whose name is Daniel
Tu tu tu...


12.Red Hot

作詞:TAKESHI HOSOMI
作曲:TAKESHI HOSOMI

Wake me up before you leave
I've got an interview today
I wanna job so don't forget
to lend me some for train

I'm growing up to be a better man
But I always fail I'm still a dirty bug
I wanna grab the flag
But there's always someone faster

I'm trying to live a bit seriously
But what's on my mind is you know always girls
Vitaminize me
Pass me the potato chips

You know what When nothing's going right
You know what It's like a magic thing
I got the music playing loud in my head
I got a red hot chili blows it away
I got the music playing loud in my head
Turn the blinker off we go straight ahead

I'm going down like 20 times a day
It could be less or maybe the same as you
And I'm floating up more than a million times a day

I'm trying to live a bit cautiously
But what's on my mind is always having fun
I know nicotine kills
But quitting smoking kills me now

You know what When nothing's going right
You know what It's like a magic thing
I got the music playing loud in my head
I got a red hot chili blows it away
I got the music playing loud in my head
Turn the blinker off we go straight ahead
As always things won't be better
As always no one understands
As always I'll do anything
As always if it makes you laugh
I'm growing up to be a better man
But I always fail I'm still a dirty bug
I wanna grab the flag
But there's always someone faster

I got the music playing loud in my head
I got a red hot chili blows it away
I got the music playing loud in my head
Turn the blinker off we go straight ahead
I got the music playing loud in my head
I got a red hot chili blows it away
I got the music playing loud in my head
Turn the blinker off we are heading ahead


13.虹

作詞:TAKESHI HOSOMI
作曲:TAKESHI HOSOMI

氣休めぐらいになればいいよ
道に迷って引き返して
時間だけ過ぎて行くけど

積み重ねた 思い出とか
音を立てて崩れたって
僕らはまた 今日を記憶に
變えていける

薄い冰を割らないように
下を向いて步く僕は
簡單に虹を見落とした

迷わずにすむ道もあった
どこにでも行ける自由を
失う方がもっと怖かった

積み重ねた 思い出とか
音を立てて崩れたって
僕らはまた 今日を記憶に
變えていける
間違いとか すれ違いが
僕らを切り離したって
僕らはまた 今日を記憶に
變えていける

立ち止まって見上げた空に
今年初の星が流れる
なんとなくこれでいいと思った

積み重ねた 思い出とか
音を立てて崩れたって
僕らはまた 今日を記憶に
變えていける
間違いとか すれ違いが
僕らを切り離したって
僕らはまた 今日を記憶に
變えていける


14.Marry Me

作詞:TAKESHI HOSOMI
作曲:TAKESHI HOSOMI

Somewhere closer I can hear the wedding bell
It's a fine day
I am wearing a blue shirts like the sky
I am standing in the line
while holding confetti
I see the girl of my dream is
shining like the sun beside him
Won't you marry me if I could be a rich boy
Won't you marry me if I could be very handsome
Won't you marry me if I could be a tall guy
Don't you marry him if I could be in the next life
You're an idol in high school
He was a quarter back
He has sold me a photocopy of your photograph
I am standing in the line
while holding confetti
I see the girl of my dream is
smiling like the sun in her wedding dress
Won't you marry me if I could be a rich boy
Won't you marry me if I could be very handsome
Won't you marry me if I could be a tall guy
Don't you marry him if I could be in the next life

Maybe not She don't remember me
Maybe not She don't know how I feel
Maybe not She don't even know my last name

Won't you marry me if I could be a rich boy
Won't you marry me if I could be very handsome
Won't you marry me if I could be a tall guy
Don't you marry him
He's just another stupid in the next life


15.Missing

作詞:TAKESHI HOSOMI
作曲:TAKESHI HOSOMI

朱く染まる空 夜の合圖が
今日も僕らを驅り立ててく
壁にもたれた 僕らの唄 口ずさめば

重なって 少し樂になって
見つかっては ここに逃げ迂んで
笑ったこと 思い出して
We're Missing We're Missing
We're Missing

あの火花みたいに 誠實なら
迷う理由も見つかるのに
足りない記憶 僕らの唄 口ずさめば

重なって 少し樂になって
見つかっては ここに逃げ迂んで
笑ったこと 思い出して
We're Missing We're Missing
We're Missing

間違って 少し失って
さまよっては 君に出會って
笑ったこと 思い出して
We're Missing We're Missing
We're Missing

ソ一ダの中の寶石 入っていなかった金貨
たやすく折れたナイフ 羽の付いた髮飾り
一滴の水で泳ぐ 勝算みたいなもの
あたたかい毛布も 大切なんだ

重なって 少し樂になって
見つかっては ここに逃げ迂んで
笑ったこと 思い出して
We're Missing We're Missing
We're Missing

間違って 少し失って
さまよっては 君に出會って
笑ったこと 思い出して
We're Missing We're Missing
We're Missing We're Missing
We're Missing
you
Since you left we still can't sleep at night
We're missing We're Missing
We're Missing


16.The Autumn Song

作詞:TAKESHI HOSOMI
作曲:TAKESHI HOSOMI

Summer time is gone I miss it so much
My board lies in my garage
Waiting for the snowy season
And again I would slide

Friends are alright There's nothing so sad
And the foods are good today
It looks like things are going right
But I feel I'm all alone
Tell me how can I be such a stupid shit
No way, I can't even find my way home
You said today is not the same as yesterday
One thing I miss at the center of my heart
It's such a fine day And all the nice girls
I don't need anymore
Coffee is ready I light my cigarette
Guess what it's all about

I wonder where I put the letter you wrote me
That's all I'm concerned about
We can party around the clock
But I feel I'm all alone
Tell me how can I be such a stupid shit
No way, I can't even find my way home
You said today is not the same as yesterday
One thing I miss at the center of my heart

Summer time is gone I miss it so much
My board lies in my garage
Waiting for the snowy season
And again I would slide

I wonder where I put the letter you wrote me
That's all I'm concerned about
We can party around the clock
But I feel I'm all alone
Tell me how can I be such a stupid shit
No way, I can't even find my way home
You said today is not the same as yesterday
One thing I miss at the center of my heart


17.Fire Cracker

作詞:TAKESHI HOSOMI
作曲:TAKESHI HOSOMI

Now I Finally understand
We're all here to play an endless game
And winning is just as bad as losing

Am I sick? Not anymore
How could I be tonight
To find it floating in my static dream
Just sing it... sing it
Even though I've never said the words
Don't fake it...no more
To find it floating in your static dream
Just sing it...sing it
Even though you've never said the words
I feel right now

Now I've got this far anyway
And I've finally turned to my last page
These countless memories still holding me back

Am I sick? Not anymore
How could I be tonight
To find it floating in my static dream
Just sing it... sing it
Even though I've never said the words
Don't fake it...no more
To find it floating in your static dream
Just sing it...sing it
Even though you've never said the words
I feel right now

The tired song of summer that I used to sing
And you found me somehow good
And it's so much fun to be with you
You can't imagine how I was dying
just to talk to you

We can leave it as it is
We can be as one as well

To find it floating in my static dream
Just sing it... sing it
Even though I've never said the words
Don't fake it...no more
To find it floating in your static dream
Just sing it...sing it
Even though you've never said the words
I feel right now


18.Space Sonic

作詞:TAKESHI HOSOMI
作曲:TAKESHI HOSOMI

Insane
I feel ashamed when the morning comes
And I hate to breathe
Guilty
No doubt I am
Please tell me how to come clean again

Spaceship
Go fuck the stars
When the night falls down they shine on me
Have you ever felt this way
Like you are the worst mankind on the planet earth

Don't even ask why I'm standing here
I found a piece of me
It is still left in you
It's very cheap but cute emotion
I wish you were here
'Cause I found the way to live with that
I'm not going anywhere
I thought you'd only make me weak
That's wrong
I knew it all and you knew it all
that it's never gonna work
To wait for someone who could stop this rain
It just rains

Watching
The same old dream
A mailing car runs over me
Have you ever felt this way
Like you are the most useless on the planet earth

Don't even ask why I'm standing here
I found the shiners of my own
A fantasy Good memories
It's very cheap but cute emotion
I with you were here
'Cause I found the way to live with that
I'm not going anywhere
I thought you'd only make me weak
That's wrong
I knew it all and you knew it all
that it's never gonna work
To wait for someone who could stop this rain
It just rains
It just rains

Maybe there's no one who is perfect
But who wants to be anyway
Maybe there's no one who is all clean
But who wants to be anyway

'Cause I found the way to live with that
I'm not going anywhere
I thought you'd only make me weak
That's wrong
I knew it all and you knew it all
that it's never gonna work
To wait for someone who could stop this rain
It just rains


19.Salamander

作詞:TAKESHI HOSOMI
作曲:TAKESHI HOSOMI

There ain't no fear
There ain't no hope
There ain't no right
There ain't no wrong

Just make it loud
Just make it loud
Just make it loud
I feel no touch

There ain't no past
There ain't no fate
There ain't no thoughts
There ain't no rules

Spoken words
Broken hearts
Instant dreams

Just let it slide
Wasting time
Just keep it goin' and goin'
Just let it slide
Wasting life
Just keep it rollin' and rollin'
Just make it loud
In your room
Just make it loud
No one cares
And just let it slide

There ain't no pain
There ain't no help
There ain't no doubt
There ain't no name

Just make it fun
Just make it fun
Just make it fun
Carry on

There ain't no hate
There ain't no grace
There ain't no harm
There ain't no truth

Empty bowls
Springer falls
Lost and found

Just let it slide
Wasting time
Just keep it goin' and goin'
Just let it slide
Wasting life
Just keep it rollin' and rollin'
Just make it loud
In your room
Just make it loud
No one cares
And just let it slide

Now I hear it snows
This year is getting colder
How I feel inside
Losing my concentration
Now I need more time
Somehow I'll make it through
I just need more time

Just let it slide
Wasting time
Just keep it goin' and goin'
Just let it slide
Wasting life
Just keep it rollin' and rollin'
Just make it loud
In your room
Just make it loud
No one cares
And just let it slide

Hey Mr. Clever she is fool enough to trust you

Give me something that I'll never fail
Give me something that I understand
Give me something that I'll never lose again


21.高架線

作詞:TAKESHI HOSOMI
作曲:TAKESHI HOSOMI

ほんの少し前に 手に入れたような未来を
思い出と一緒に 丸めて投げ捨てた
まだ先は長いよ 荷物はもういいよ

I am dreaming of a girl rocked my world
南北へ続く高架線
この先にはきっとあるとささやいてる

ゆっくりと傾く 足元に気をつけて
思うよりあなたは ずっと強いからね
耳鳴りがやまないな 君の声がまだ聞こえるよ

I am dreaming of a girl rocked my world
南北へ続く高架線
この先にはきっとあるとささやいてる

何億年も前に つけた傷跡なら残って
消えなくてもいいさ 痛みはもうないからね
血のにじんだ足跡 置いていかれた記憶も
誰にだってあるだろ 隠すつもりもないけど

I am dreaming of a girl rocked my world
南北へ続く高架線
この先にはきっとあるとささやいてる
Her name is Laura
