[Rurouni Kenshin] 1/2 by Kawamoto Makoto

I'm pretty sure everyone who has ever watched this anime has been obsessed with this song at some point in their lives. So fast and catchy - I really enjoyed stopping and taking the time to understand this song since it always just goes by too fast. New appreciation for it!!

Kanji Romaji English

背中に耳をぴっとつけて　抱きしめた
境界線みたいな身体がじゃまだね
どっかいっちゃいそうなのさ

黙ってると　ちぎれそうだから　こんな気持ち
半径3メートル以内の世界でもっと
もっとひっついてたいのさ

かわりばんこでペダルをこいで
おじぎのひまわり通り越して
ぐんぐん風をのみこんで　そう飛べそうじゃん
初めて感じた君の体温　誰よりも強くなりたい
あったかいリズム　2コの心臓がくっついてく

唇と唇　瞳と瞳と手と手
神様は何も禁止なんてしてない
愛してる　愛してる　愛してる
あたしまだ懲りてない　大人じゃわかんない
苦しくて　せつなくて　見せたくて　パンクしちゃう
そっぽ見て待ってるから
ポッケの迷ってる手で　ほっぺに触れて
恋してるチカラに魔法をかけて

いつも一緒に遠回りしてた　帰り道
橙がこぼれるような空に
何だか　HAPPY&SAD

あたしたちってどうして生まれたの　半分だよね
一人で考えてもみるけど　やっぱへたっぴなのさ

見えなくなるほど遠くに　ボールを投げれる強い肩
うらやましくておとこの子になりたかった

澄んだ水のようにやわらかく　誰よりも強くなりたい
ちっちゃな頃みたい　へんね涙がこぼれてく

唇と唇　瞳と瞳と手と手
同じもの同じ感じかたしてるの
愛してる　愛してる　愛してる
あたしまだ懲りてない　大人じゃわかんない
届かないって　言われたって　このままジャンプしたい
バイバイのキスするから　最後の一歩の距離
ぐって抱いて
太陽がずっと沈まないように

一コの夕陽ぽつんとふたりで見てた
きれいだけどもさ
なんか言えないね　なんか足りないね

ノストラダムスが予言した通り　この星が
爆発する日はひとつになりたい
あったかいリズム　2コの心臓がくっついてく

唇と唇　瞳と瞳と手と手
神様は何も禁止なんかしてない
愛してる　愛してる　愛してる
あたしまだ懲りてない　大人じゃわかんない
苦しくて　せつなくて　見せたくて　パンクしちゃう
そっぽ見て待ってるから　ポッケの迷ってる手で
ほっぺに触れて
恋してるチカラに魔法をかけて
太陽がずっと沈まないように

Senaka ni mimi wo pitto tsukete　Dakishimeta

Dokka icchaisou nano sa

Damatteru to　Chigiresou dakara　Konna kimochi
Hankei san me-toru inai no sekai de motto
Motto hittsuitetai no sa

Kawari banko de pedaru wo koide
Ojigi no himawari toorikoshite
Gungun kaze wo nomikonde　Sou tobesou jan
Hajimete kanjita kimi no taion　Dare yori mo tsuyokunaritai
Attakai rizumu　Niko no shinzo ga kuttsuiteku

Kuchibiru to kuchibiru　Me to me to te to te
Kamisama wa nanimo kinshi nanka shitenai

Pokke no mayotteru te de　Hoppe ni furete
Koishiteru chikara ni mahou wo kakete

Itsumo issho ni toomawari shiteta　Kaeri michi

Sunda mizu no you ni yawarakaku　Dare yori mo tsuyokunaritai

Kuchibiru to kuchibiru　Me to me to te to te
Onaji mono onaji kanjikata shiteru no

Ikko no yuuhi potsun to futari de miteta

Going on a journey away from the city I've come to know　Away from the friends I'm always with
Searching for myself　Afraid of loneliness　Those monotonous days were the best I ever spent

Swaying from side to side, unable to look straight ahead
Going beyond the light that crosses over each of our paths

The dream that I thought was over　Continues to push me forward
The memories engraved within me start to stir
With both hands, I'll hold on tightly to the finite time and love I have
Today, at least, don't let them disappear

So caught up in what others think of me　So caught up in appearances　I walked forward without seeing what was real
I've forgotten why I was worried in the first place　Won't someone come and end my loneliness?

To keep my torn up pride hidden and safe
I embellished my stories　Thinking it would fill in the gaps in my heart

Time stopped at twilight, lighting up our futures
Those nights we can never go back to again
We'll keep on talking about these songs of eternity and hope forever
Even though we know it's only for now

We have a ways to go　This isn't where we stop
Were we holding on to those shallow, naïve feelings?
It's been over a decade since we learned our ABCs…
We were so young　Thinking "we'll always stay this way"

Inside that train that began to move　You were always there
I wonder if we can see each other again at that place at that time
I wonder if I'll always be there behind those eyes that have always kept believing
So we can grow as strong as the flower that dares to grow on the seashore
Forevermore　Just like this　This light will shine upon our future
Fly high

The dream that I thought was over　Continues to push me forward
The memories engraved within me start to stir
With both hands, I'll hold on tightly to the finite time and love I have
Today, at least, don't let them disappear

Time stopped at twilight, lighting up our futures
Those nights we can never go back to again
We'll keep on talking about these songs of eternity and hope forever
Even though we know it's only for now

The second and minute hands keep on ticking
Looking back on them, time went by so fast
From the time we learned our ABCs to the present
We were so young　We were just so young
