035_Kino Tsurayuki_Scent of Yesterday

Motet Duke

Hitowa-isa Kokoromoshirazu

Furusatowa Hanazo-Mukashino

Kani-nioikeru

Hanazo-Mukashino

Kani-nioikeru

In the air, the scent remains the same

Whispers of a time we used to claim

Memories fade, but the flowers stay

Their fragrance lingers while we drift away

Hitowa-isa Kokoromoshirazu

Furusatowa Hanazo-Mukashino

Kani-nioikeru

Hearts may change, but flowers never lie

Hitowa-isa Kokoromoshirazu

We chase the winds, but they just pass us by

In the streets where we once ran free

Now I wonder, what’s become of me?

People grow, their hearts may stray

But this scent calls me back to yesterday

Hitowa-isa Kokoromoshirazu

Furusatowa Hanazo-Mukashino

Kani-nioikeru

Hearts may change, but flowers never lie

Hitowa-isa Kokoromoshirazu

We chase the winds, but they just pass us by

Maybe we’re just echoes in the wind

Trying to find the place we’ve always been

Though hearts may waver and roads may bend

The flowers know the truth in the end

Hitowa-isa Kokoromoshirazu

Furusatowa Hanazo-Mukashino

Kani-nioikeru

Hearts may change, but flowers never lie

Hitowa-isa Kokoromoshirazu

We chase the winds, but they just pass us by

The scent remains, it pulls us near

No matter how far we've wandered here

Hitowa-isa Kokoromoshirazu

The flowers tell the story, crystal clear
