THE NOVEMBERS - 37.2°

Lyrics: Yusuke Kobayashi
Music: Yusuke Kobayashi

Kanji: 37.2°
雨の匂いを君は携えて
奏でる木々と風に吹かれてる
そっと耳をそばだてた
名前を呼ばれた気がして
君のあくびが夜に溶ける頃
僕の祈りが空をかける頃
花がまばらに野に咲き出す頃
僕たちはもう待ちくたびれているよ
「きっときれいだろうね」
「ずっとこのままは嫌だわ」
すり切れるまで同じ場所にはいられない
また別々に夢を見るのかな

僕らはいつのまに　どこから来て
これから何をすれば　どこへ行けば
何を見ればいいんだろう

指から指へ口から口へ
肌から肌へ心を集めても
何の役にも立たずに
そこら中に散らばってる
絡んだ黒い髪を僕がすく
どれくらい君が笑うか見たいんだよ

雨がこのままやまないなら
歩けないよ　溺れちゃうよ
小さなボートを漕いで行こう二人で
さあ　海へ行こう　森へ行こう　白い地平を見に行こう
裸足で蹴った　砂が光るのをまた見たい
あの日だってそうだったろ

ame no nioi o kimi wa tazusaete
kanaderu kigi to kaze ni fukareteru
sotto mimi o sobadateta
namae o yobareta kigashite
kimi no akubi ga yoru ni tokeru goro
boku no inori ga sora o kakeru goro
hana ga mabara ni no ni sakidasu goro
bokutachi wa mou machikutabireteiru yo
"kitto kirei darou ne"
"zutto kono mama wa iya da wa"
surikireru made onaji basho ni wa irarenai
mata betsubetsu ni yume o miru no kana

bokura wa itsunomani   doko kara kite
korekara nani o sureba   doko e yukeba
nani o mireba iindarou

yubi kara yubi e kuchi kara kuchi e
hada kara hada e kokoro o atsumetemo
nanno yaku nimo tatazuni
sokorajuu ni chirabatteru
karanda kuroi kami o boku ga suku
dore kurai kimi ga warau ka mitainda yo

ame ga kono mama yamanai nara
arukenai yo   oborechau yo
chiisana BO-TO o koideyukou futari de
saa   umi e yukou   mori e yukou   shiroi chihei o mi ni yukou
hadashi de ketta   suna ga hikaru no o mata mitai
ano hi datte sou dattaro

English: 37.2°
You carry the smell of rain in your hands
Blown by the wind with the performing trees
It gently strained my ears
I had the feeling that it called my name
The time when your yawn melts in the night
The time when my prayers drift in the sky
The time when flowers bloom sparsely in a field
We're already tired of waiting
"It will surely be beautiful, right?"
"I don't want it to be like this forever"
I can't stay at the same place until it wears out
I wonder if we'll have a separate dream again

Before knowing it, we came from somewhere
What should we do from now on, where should we go?
What should we look at?

From finger to finger, from mouth to mouth
From skin to skin, we gathered our hearts
But it served no kind of purpose
They scatter all over the place
I will comb your black tangled hair
I want to see how much you'll smile

If the rain doesn't let up at this rate
I can't walk anymore, I'll drown
Let's paddle a small boat and go, just the two of us
Come, let's go to the ocean, let's go to the forest, let's go see the white horizon
I want to see the glittering sand that you kicked barefoot again
That day was like that too, wasn't it?

Notes:
Kobayashi once tweeted about a French film called "37°2 le matin" (Betty Blue in English) and might've named the title of the song after it. I don't know much more than that. I always thought it might've had some relation with the body temperature though so I'm not sure.
