泣いた女がバカなのか

だました男が悪いのか

褪せたルージュの唇噛んで

夜霧の街でむせび哭く

恋のみれんの東京ブルース

どうせ私をだますなら

死ぬまでだまして欲しかった

赤いルビーの指環に秘めた

あの日の夢もガラス玉

割れて砕けた東京ブルース

月に吠えよか淋しさを

どこへも捨て場のない身には

暗い灯かげをさまよいながら

女が鳴らす口笛は

恋の終りの東京ブルース

Is the woman who cried foolish

Or is the man who tricked her the one in the wrong

Biting on the lips covered in faded rouge

Sobbing quietly in the city covered by the night fog

Love's regret's Tokyo blues

If you were going to lie to me

I wanted you to lie to me until I die

Hidden in the red ruby ring

The dream from that day is also a glass ball

Which cracked and crumbled to pieces, Tokyo blues

Should I holler to the moon about my loneliness

To the one who doesn't have a place to throw oneself

Wandering among the dark lamps

The whistle sung by a woman is

The end of her love, Tokyo blues

あなたの夢に 虹をかけたい

一緒に渡ると 決めていたのに

涙で別れてもう二年

ネオンの街で夢見てる

抱いて抱いて抱きしめて　今すぐ私を

お酒によりそう とまり木夢灯り

いつかは貴方が 迎えに来る事

信じているから 強く生きてる

あの日の約束忘れずに

女は貴方にささげてる

強く強く抱かれた　幸せな日々が

グラスにゆれてる とまり木夢灯り

抱いて抱いて抱きしめて　今すぐ私を

お酒によりそう とまり木夢灯り

Anatano yumeni nijiwo kaketai
Isshoni wataruto kimete itanoni
Namidade wakarete mō ninen 
Neon'no machide yume miteru
Daite daite dakishimete ima sugu watashiwo
Osakeni yorisou tomarigi yumeakari

Itsukawa anataga mukaeni kuru koto
Shinjite irukara tsuyoku ikiteru
Ano hino yakusoku wasurezuni
On'nawa anatani sasageteru
Tsuyoku tsuyoku dakareta shiawasena hibiga
Gurasuni yureteru tomarigi yumeakari

Daite daite dakishimete ima sugu watashiwo

Osakeni yorisou tomarigi yumeakari

I want to place your dreams on the rainbow

Though I had decided that we would cross it together

It's been two years since we parted

I am dreaming in the city of neon lights

Hold, hold, hold me, right now

Nestling close to the sake, perched on the dream light tree

One day you will come to pick me up

Believing that, I can live strong

I haven't forgotten the promise we made that day

I'm a woman completely devoted to you

The happy days when you strongly strongly held me

Wavers in the glass cup, perched on the dream light tree

Hold, hold, hold me, right now

Nestling close to the sake, perched on the dream light tree
