Fireflies [Japanese translation]

You would not believe your eyes If ten million fireflies

眠りについた僕のまわりを

lit up the world as i fell asleep

幾千万の蛍が舞って

'Cause they'd fill the open air

落としていった

and leave teardrops everywhere

たくさんの涙

you'd think me rude but I'd just stand and stare

起きあがってじっと見つめた

I'd like to make myself believe

確かに夢じゃない

that planet Earth turns slowly

地球は回る　ゆっくり...

Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

寝てるのに起きてるっておかしいけど

'Cause everything is never as it seems

世界は不思議なもの

'Cause id get a thousand hugs from ten thousand lightning bugs

幾千の光が僕を包んで

as they tried to teach me how to dance

そのダンスを教えてくれる

A foxtrot above my head　a sockhop beneath my bed

頭の上やベッドの下へ

a disco ball is just hanging by a thread

ミラーボールは風に揺れてる

I'd like to make myself believe

確かに夢じゃない

that planet Earth turns slowly

地球は回る　ゆっくり...

Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

寝てるのに起きてるっておかしいけど

'Cause everything is never as it seems

世界は不思議なもの

When i fall asleep

眠るとき

leave my door open just a crack

少しだけドアを開けて

'Cause i feel like such an insomniac

まるでひどい不眠症だね

why do i tire of counting sheep

ひつじなんて数え飽きて

when I'm far too tired to fall asleep

眠るには疲れすぎて

To ten million fireflies I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes

幾千の蛍とサヨナラしたとき

I got misty eyes as they said farewell

悲しくて泣きたくなった

but ill know where several are　if my dreams get real bizarre

でも秘密だけど夢が本当ならと

'cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar

少し瓶に捕まえておいた

I'd like to make myself believe

確かに夢じゃない

that planet Earth turns slowly

地球は回る　ゆっくり...

Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

寝てるのに起きてるっておかしいけど

'Cause everything is never as it seems

世界は不思議なもの

When I fall asleep

眠っても

I'd like to make myself believe

確かに夢じゃない

that planet Earth turns slowly

地球は回る　ゆっくり...

Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

寝てるのに起きてるっておかしいけど

'Cause everything is never as it seems

世界は不思議なもの

When I fall asleep

眠っても

I'd like to make myself believe

確かに夢じゃない

that planet Earth turns slowly

地球は回る　ゆっくり...

Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

寝てるのに起きてるっておかしいかな

Because my dreams are bursting at the seams...

夢がほつれてゆく
