Crowded House - Better Be Home Soon

「Temple of Low Man (1988)」より

Somewhere deep inside
心の奥で
Something's got a hold on you
何かが君を捕らえる
And it's pushing me aside
僕を押しのけ
See it stretch on forever
いつまでも広がり続ける

And I know I'm right
僕はまともだ
For the first time in my life
生まれて初めて
That's why I tell you
だから、君に言おう
You'd better be home soon
早く帰るんだ

Stripping back the coats
嘘と欺瞞の
Of lies and deceiption
コートを脱ぎ棄て
Back to nothingness
無へと立ち返る
Like a week in the desert
砂漠での一週のよう

And I know I'm right
僕はまともだ
For the first time in my life
生まれて初めて
That's why I tell you
だから、君に言おう
You'd better be home soon
早く帰るんだ

So don't say no, don't say nothing's wrong
だから「違う」なんて言わないで。「何も間違ってない」なんて
Cos when you get back home maybe I'll be gone
だって、君が帰れば、僕は行ってしまうから

When the nights go down
夜が何度も沈めば
When you've had your fill
君の気が済めば
When there's nothing left
全て消えてしまえば

It would cause me pain
きっと辛いだろう
If we were to end it
共に終わらせることになれば
But I could start again
けど、僕はやり直せるだろう
You can depend on it
心配しないで

And I know I'm right
僕はまともだ
For the first time in my life
生まれて初めて
That's why I tell you
だから、君に言おう
You'd better be home soon
早く帰るんだ
That's why I tell you
だから、君に言おう
You'd better be home soon
早く帰るんだ
