Lyric

You Were There in That Summer

Rina Hayama

長く続く石段を

ふたりで登った朝

潮の匂い混じりの

少し古い街並み

Tシャツの季節も

もう終わるんだねって

君は笑って

僕は何も言えなかった

振り返れば港が

朝日に光って

君の横顔だけ

少し遠く見えた

You were there in that summer

白い航跡だけが

波間に長く残る

君の笑顔も

この街の記憶も

過ぎゆく季節

僕の心に刻まれて

港へ続く道で

溶けかけたアイスキャンディー

慌てて飲み込んで

君は笑っていたね

最終便の

アナウンスが響いて

日差しがゆっくり

夕空に吸い込まれていく

夜風だけ

優しくなって

言えないままの言葉を

連れ去っていくよ

You were there in that summer

打ち上がる花火が

海に揺れて消えていく

帰り道の

静かな横顔だけが

今でも胸に

残ったまま消えない

同じ夏が来ても

同じ港に来ても

僕が少し

大人になっても

あの日の汽笛は

今も遠くで

I still hear your voice

You were there in that summer

君が笑った

あの日のままで

言えなかった言葉だけ

今も胸に残ってる

また夏が終わる

蝉時雨の向こうに

You were there in that summer

過ぎゆく夏を

ひとり見送る僕

    Cadenza in the Forest

    Rina Hayama

A summer by the harbor.
A quiet morning with blooming morning glories.
Runway lights disappearing into the night sky.
A September wind drifting through the city.
The distant sky of a hometown left behind.

"You Were There in That Summer" is Hayama Rina's 11th album, a collection of songs about memories, places, and moments that never completely fade away.

Love that was never confessed.
Dreams that changed shape with time.
Gratitude, longing, and the hope that songs can travel farther than we imagine.

Each track tells a different story, yet together they form a single journey through seasons, memories, and quiet nights.

The comma in the Japanese title - "Kimi ga Ita Natsu wa" - is intentional.

It leaves the sentence unfinished.

Just like memories do.
