Kanji Lyrics:

潮騒のメモリー

作詞：Kudo Kankuro
作曲：Otomo Yoshihide / Sachiko M.


来てよ　その火を　飛び越えて
砂に書いた　アイ　ミス　ユー

北へ帰るの　誰にも会わずに
低気圧に乗って　北へ向かうわ
彼に伝えて　今でも好きだと
ジョニーに伝えて　千円返して

潮騒のメモリー
１７才は　寄せては
返す波のように　激しく

来てよ　その火を　飛び越えて
砂に書いた　アイ　ミス　ユー

来てよ　タクシー捕まえて
波打ち際の　マーメイド
早生まれの　マーメイド

置いていくのね　さよならも言わずに
再び会うための約束もしないで
北へ行くのね　ここも北なのに
寒さ　こらえて波止場で待つわ

潮騒のメモリー
私はギター
Aマイナーの　アルペジオ 優しく

来てよ　その火を　飛び越えて
夜空に書いた　アイム　ソーリー

来てよ　その川　乗り越えて
三途の川の　マーメイド
友達少ない　マーメイド　

マーメイド　好きよ　嫌いよ

Romaji Lyrics	...	English Translation
Kiteyo sono hi wo tobikoete Suna ni kaita I miss you Kita e kaeru no darenimo awazu ni Teikiatsu ni notte kita e mukau wa Kare ni tsutaete ima demo sukidato Jonī ni tsutaete sen'en kaeshite Shiosai no memorī 17-Sai wa yosete wa kaesu nami no yō ni hageshiku Ki teyo sono hi o tobikoete Suna ni kaita I miss you Kite yo takushī tsukamaete Namiuchigiwa no māmeido Hayaumare no māmeido Oite iku no ne Sayonara mo iwazuni Futatabi au tame no yakusoku mo shinaide Kita e iku no ne koko mo kitananoni Samu-sa koraete hatoba de matsuwa Shiosai no memorī Watashi wa gitā A mainā no arupejio yasashiku Ki teyo sono hi o tobikoete Yozora ni kaita aimu sōrī Ki teyo sono kawa norikoete Sanzunokawa no māmeido Tomodachi sukunai māmeido Māmeido sukiyo kiraiyo		Come to me, come jumping over the fire... I wrote on the sand, 'I miss you'... I'm going back to the North, without seeing anyone... Will head north, riding on a storm... Tell him, I still love him... Tell Johnny, he owes me 1,000 yen... Memory of the Ocean Waves... A 17-year old is as fierce as the ocean waves... Come to me, come jumping over the fire... I wrote on the sand, 'I miss you'... Come to me, catch a cab and come Mermaid at the water's edge Mermaid born in early part of the year. Are you leaving me, without saying goodbye? Without making promises to meet again... Are you going north, although this is north too... I'll wait for you at the pier, shivering in the cold... Memory of the Ocean Waves... I'm a guitar. A-Minor gentle arpeggio Come to me, come jumping over the fire... I wrote on the night sky, 'I'm sorry'... Come to me, come jumping over the river... Mermaid at the River Styx Mermaid with not many friends. Mermaid, I love you, I hate you.

Wow! Thanks for the translation, Team EarthBuri. Kudo Kankuro's lyrics are much sweeter (and cleaner) here than his own band, Gruppu Tamashii, but he doesn't disappoint with his "I love you, I hate you" ending.
I saw Otomo Yoshihide with fellow avant-turntablist Martin Tetrault at my neighbourhood Chinese classical garden a looong time ago. That was a great, intimate show.
Must commit this song to memory now :))

Oops, P.S.
I don't think this song's Japanese name is まともがわからない, but, hey I love that song too!
