Laugh away

Laugh Away was first released as a digital single on the 10th of March, 2008. It's a feel-good song and also the first song on YUI's third album's (I LOVED YESTERDAY)tracklist. There's also an acoustic version of the song which is used for the Laugh Away PV. The Laugh Away PV was released in combination with the Summer Song PV, telling us the story of two highschool students (Anri Okamoto & Kento Hayashi).

kanji:

見上げたら ヒゴーキ雲 明日へと消えた

僕は それでもずっと 自転車を漕ぎ続けた

上り坂 駆け上がる あの空の向こう

いつか 追い越せるような そんな気がしているから

逸れそうな Get away Get away

情熱を Get away Get away

逃さないように 手を伸ばして。。。

ちっぽけな事に悩んじゃって

とにかく君に会いたくなった yeah

生まれたての春の匂いに

咲き誇るサクラの花びら

いつだって 負けないように ねぇ

そう 笑って そっと 笑って Laugh away

そう 笑って いつも 笑って

丘の上 息を切らし 町を見下ろした

多分 君の家の 屋根くらいは見えるはず

窓のそっと 海がすぐだよなんて 話してた

だから あの場所あたり？ 同じ「今」感じている

溢れそうな Get away Get away

情熱を Get away Get away

こぼさないように 手を伸ばして

ちっぽけな事に悩んじゃって

とにかく君に会いたくなった

目の前に広がる景色を

忘れては行けない気がした

いつだって 負けないように

Never mind. Never mind. 落ち込んだら

yeah yeah ここに来て 風に吹かれたい

小さな笑顔が見たいから

僕だって強くなれるのさ yeah

生まれたての春の臭い

咲き誇るサクラの花びら

いつだって 負けないようにねぇ

そう 笑って いつも 笑って

English:

As I looked up, the streak of clouds (left behind in the trail of planes) disappeared to tomorrow

Even then, I continued to paddle on my bicycle

Yeah, climbing up the upslope, to the sky on the other side

Because I felt I could overcome that some day

As if losing my way, get away get away

Don't lose your passion/ ambition (Get away Get away)

Stretch out your arms

Worrying about the trivial things

Suddenly I felt like seeing you

The smell of fresh spring

The petals of the blossoming sakura

I will never lose to it.

Yes laugh, laugh away

Yes laugh, keep laughing

On top of the hill, I took a deep breath and looked down

I probably could only see the roof of your house

And you said the sea is just outside the windows

At that place, I could feel the same presence

The overflowing (Get away Get away)

Don't spill your (overflowing) passion (Get away Get away)

Stretch out your arms

Worrying about the trivial things

Suddenly, I felt like seeing you

The scenery right in front of my eyes

I felt I mustn't forget it.

I will never lose to it.

When I feel depressed and down, yeah yeah

I want to come here, and be blown by the wind

I want to see your little smile

I, too, can become stronger

The smell of the fresh Spring

The petals of the blossoming sakura

I will never lose to it

Yes, laugh. Keep laughing away.
