Life Goes On Lyrics + Translation

[aide]

tinybluemarble  did a much better job of this than I, but I thought I would give it a go anyway.  I am not going to read hers until I post this because I want to see how close I got!  XD  I also took the liberty of fixing their English.

Life Goes On
嵐 / Arashi

出来すぎてんのさ　その手のストーリー　夢見るだけ夢見てる
Deki sugiten no sa Sono te no suto--ri-- Yume miru dake yume miteru
To be able to accomplish such stories,  Dreams are only dreamt
はかどらない今日もWork　昼下がりの街角
Hakadoranai kyou mo Work Hiru sagari no machikado
I didn't make any more progress today at work, the street corner of mid-afternoon
とにかく素敵な人に会った　右も左もわからない
Tonikaku suteki na hito ni atta Migi mo hidari mo wakaranai
Anyway, I met this amazing person and I couldn't tell left from right
素知らぬ顔で今日も過ぎる　心はそうInside out
Soshiranu kao de kyou mo sugiru Kokoro wa sou Inside out
With that ignorant face today passes too, my mind is so inside out

一体どうしたらいいんだい?　揺れ動くこの想い
Ittai doushitara iindai? Yure ugoku kono omoi
How can we make the world better? This is a shaking thought
胸に抱えるタイマーがチクチクと　うずくのも知らずに
Mune ni kakaeru taimu-- ga chikuchiku to Uzuku no mo shirazu ni
The time I'm carrying in my heart goes tick-tock and it hurts unconsciously

※Wow wow Day by day　いつだってメロディーは繰り返す
Wow wow Day by day Itsudatte merodi-- wa kurikaesu
Wow wow Day by day, the melody is always on repeat
ときめく街で　手にしたラブソング
Tokimeku machi de Te ni shita rabu songu
In the bustling streets you can hear my love song
Oh lady 簡単にかない日もある
Oh lady Kantan ni kanai hi mo aru
Oh lady there are days after these difficulties
声にならないよ　Come on baby
Koe ni naranai yo Come on baby
This won't become your voice, come on baby
Night and day　悩んで　それでも進んで行く
Night and day Nayande Sore demo susunde iku
Even if you worry night and day, that will still continue
日々を掻き分け　伝えてMy love
Hibi wo kakiwake Tsutaete My love
Elbowing my way through the days, I will convey my love
Oh lady　こうやって想像を塗り替え
Oh lady Kouyatte souzou wo nerikae
Oh lady I repainted my imagination
鳴り止まない鼓動を抱いて※
Nari yamamai kodou wo daite
My heart beat hasn't stopped ringing

そして　今日も Life goes on
Soshite Kyou mo Life goes on
And so, today too, life goes on

いつの時代でも共通のストーリー　夢見るだけ夢見てる
Itsu no jidai demo kyoutsuu no suto--ri-- Yume miru dake yume miteru
This is age where this story is common, Dreams are only dreamt
進みやしない今日もWork　日が暮れそうだ Yeah yeah
Susumi yashinai kyou mo Work Hi ga kuresou da Yeah yeah
I didn't make any advances at work, the day is already coming to an end Yeah yeah
巡り巡るよ君の笑顔が　西も東もわからない
Meguri meguru yo kimi no egao ga Nishi mo higashi mo wakaranai
Your face is circling around and I can't tell east from west
素知らぬ顔で明日は来る　言葉もそうInside out
Soshiranu kao de asu wa kuru Kotoba mo sou Inside out
With that ignorant face tomorrow comes, my words are also inside out

一体どうしたらいいんだい?　日々募るこの想い
Ittai doushitara iindai? Hibi tsunoru kono omoi
How can we make the world better? I'm daily collecting these thoughts
あきらめという大軍がだんだんと　迫るのも知らずに
Akirame toiu taigun dandan to Semaru no mo shirazuni
Without knowing that the forces of resignation approach gradually

Wow wow Day by day　いつだって道は続いてる
Wow wow Day by day Itsudatte michi wa tsuzuiteru
Wow wow Day by day Keep following this road
出逢えた君に　歌うよラブソング
Deaeta kimi ni Utau yo rabu songu
When I met you, singing this love song
Oh lady　順調にいかない日もある
Oh lady Junchou ni ika nai ni mo aru
Oh lady There are days where nothing goes right too
答えはでないよ　Come on baby
Kotae wa denai yo Come on baby
There is no answer yet, come on baby
Night and day　考えて　これだって進んでる
Night and day Kangaete Kore datte susunderu
Thinking night and day, this has moved forward
遠い未来へ　繋がれMy love
Tooi mirai e Tsunagare My love
Connect my love to a distant future
Oh lady　こうやって想像は止まらない
Oh lady Kouyatte souzou wa tomaranai
Oh lady Don't stop this imagination
また始まりの風を抱いて
Mata hajimari no kaze no daite
Embrace the wind that is starting again

そして　今日も  Love goes on
Soshite Kyou mo Love goes on
And so, today too, love goes on

終わらない愛の波動　僕もきっと君に伝えてみせるよ
Owaranai ai no hadou Boku mo kitto kimi ni tsutaete miseru yo
I'll tell you and show you this wave of a never-ending love
開始僅か3分先制　だけど後半劣勢逆転　Please please me
Kaishi wazuka san-pun sensei Dakedo kouhan ressei gyakuten Please please me
You get a short 3-minute headstart, but during second half things reverse, please please me

(※Repeat)

いつか　いつか　Everything　いつか　いつか　Everything
Itsuka Itsuka Everything Itsuka Itsuka Everything
Someday, someday everything...
どうか　未来は　Everything's alright
Douka Mirai wa Everything's alright
Somehow in the future everything's alright

That's a pretty good translation! I see we've interpreted some things differently. I tend to have problems with subject. D: Especially when they throw in random English. >>;
