Background[]
"Yellow" is a song featuring Hatsune Miku by kz. Completed when kz became the sole member of livetune. Although the song is upbeat electropop in genre, Miku sings that although "the end of joy is a thing that comes too soon", she won't stop singing "for the sake of returning your smile". This is extremely appropriate, as "Yellow" is the tie-up song for the video game Hatsune Miku -Project DIVA- 2nd. The song has entered the Hall of Fame.
The song and its instrumental were released by Sony Music Direct as part of a split single, こっち向いて Baby / Yellow. A DVD packaged along with the physical retail version of the release includes a PV for "Yellow", likely by Naohiro Yako of flapper3.

Japanese (日本語歌詞) | Romaji (ローマ字) |
---|---|
いつからだろう 君の笑う声遠く | itsukara darou kimi no warau koe tooku |
幸せの終わりなんてあっけないものだね | shiawase no owari nante akkenai mono da ne |
数え切れない 涙もけだるい明日も | kazoekirenai namida mo kedarui asu mo |
交わした言葉全て想い出にはさせない | kawashita kotoba subete omoide ni wa sasenai |
君の笑顔取り戻す為 | kimi no egao torimodosu tame |
何度でも僕は歌を止めない | nando demo boku wa uta o yamenai |
いくつもの夜を越え | ikutsu mo no yoru o koe |
この願いかなうその日まで | kono negai kanau sono hi made |
諦めていた 壊れかけた旋律を | akirameteita koware kaketa senritsu o |
拾い集めて もう一度魔法かけるの | hiroi atsumete mou ichido mahou kakeru no |
君の笑顔取り返す為 | kimi no egao torikaesu tame |
いつだって僕は歌を止めない | itsudatte boku wa uta o yamenai |
流れる星に願う | nagareru hoshi ni negau |
この想い届くその日まで | kono omoi todoku sono hi made |
ピリオドはまだ早すぎるよ | piriodo wa mada hayasugiru yo |
伝えたい言葉はたくさん | tsutaetai kotoba wa takusan |
あの朝の光をOne More Time | ano asa no hikari o One More Time |
あの場所を誰もがそう みんな待っている | ano basho o dare mo ga sou minna matte iru |
輝くようなYellowの朝 | kagayaku you na ie Yellow no asa |
いつだって僕ら忘れられない | itsudatte bokura wasurerarenai |
音と光のシャワー | oto to hikari no shawaa |
終わることのないStep & Clap | owaru koto no nai Step & Clap |
君の笑顔取り戻す為 | kimi no egao torimodosu tame |
何度でも僕は歌を止めない | nando demo boku wa uta o yamenai |
いくつもの夜を越え | ikutsu mo no yoru o koe |
この願いかなうその時まで | kono negai kanau sono toki made |
When did your laugh become so far away?
Happiness ends all too soon
Countless tears and listless tomorrows
I won't let the words we shared become mere memories
To bring back your smile
I won't stop singing, no matter what
However many nights it takes
Until the day my wish comes true
All these hopeless melodies on the verge of breaking
I'll gather them up and dust them with magic
To bring back your smile
I won't stop singing, no matter when
I'll wish on a shooting star
Until the day my thoughts reach you
It's too soon to put a period on the end
There are so many words I want to say
That morning light one more time
That place we're all waiting for, each one of us
A sparkling yellow morning
We can't ever forget
A shower of sound and light
A never-ending step & clap
To bring back your smile
I won't stop singing, no matter what
However many nights it takes
Until that moment when my wish comes true
