Jpop Recommend #85 Ride on Time by Tatsuro Yamashita

Ride on Time

山下 達郎 Tatsuro Yamashita



Released in May 1980, this is his 6th single.  This song has been popular for a long time.  It was revived again when it was used as a theme song for a TV drama, "Good Luck" starred by Takuya Kimura.


July has started.  No more rains, I hope.  The summer will begin soon and this song is perfect for a summer tune.

青い 水平線      を いま 駆け  抜けてく
Aoi  suiheisen o ima kake nuketeku
Alongside the blue horizon I'm running through now 
とぎすまされた        時   の  流れ     感じて
Togisumasareta toki no nagare kanjite
while focusing my finely-honed sense on the flow of time

Ah ときめき   へ と 動き   出す   世界   は

Ah tokimeki e to ugoki dasu sekai wa
Ah, the world that starts to move toward excitement
忘れ        かけてた  遠い  夢     の   訪れ
Wasure-kaketeta tooi yume no otozure
calls for a long-forgotten dream

RIDE ON TIME さまよう       想い  なら

Ride On Time    samayou omoi nara
Ride on time, if you're still wandering,
やさしく           受け止めて  そっと   包んで
Yasashiku  uketorimete sotto  tsutsunde
you should accept it gently and hold it softly
RIDE ON TIME 心        に 火 を 点けて
Ride On Time   kokoro ni hi o tsukete
Ride on time, light up your heart
あふれる 喜び        に 拡がれ    RIDE ON TIME
Afureru yorokobi ni hirogare Ride On Time
and fill it with the over-pouring joy, let's ride on time

僕      の  輝く           未来  さあ   回り      始めて

Boku no kagayaku mirai saa mawari hajimete
Bright future of mine is now start rolling
虚ろ       な 日々 全て     愛  に 溶け込む
Utsuro na hibi subete ai ni tokekomu
Those hollow days are now all melted into love

Ah 何という   朝   今    すぐ   君    の  もと

Ah nantoiu asa ima sugu kimi no moto
Ah what a morning, right now to you
届け      に 行こう   燃える   心         迷わず
todoke ni yukou moeru kokoro mayowazu
Let's bring my burning heart without hesitation

RIDE ON TIME  時    よ  走り      出せ

Ride on time, Let's make the time start running
愛 よ  光り     出せ 目   も    くらむ     程
Ai yo hikari-dase me mo kuramu hodo
Let's make the love start to shine as if to make your eyes go blind
RIDE ON TIME 心        に 火 を 点けて
Ride On Time   kokoro ni hi o tsukete
Ride on time, light up your heart
飛び立つ     魂           に 送る    よ RIDE ON TIME
Tobitatsu tamashii ni okuru yo Ride On Time
and send it to the soul soon to take off, let's ride on time

届け      に  行こう   燃える  心        今    こそ
