Crossing the sky of the 7th of July
Bringing this longing feeling in my chest
Stars, please stop your course just for today
I am going to meet Orihime
Hikoboshi, oh yes
C’mon, Hikoboshi, oh yes
The Milky Way kinda makes me sick
Heisei’s gone, and now we’re in Reiwa
If hanging tanzaku granted your wishes
No one would ever work anymore
Can’t you drop the once a year thing
Hiko-chan, come see me already
I don’t know who said this before but
The gyaru code trumps the laws of heaven
She’s later than usual for our meeting
And then the party gyaru’s eyes meet mine
“You haven’t changed at all in a year”
She laughs at my dumbfounded face
The modest you that I once knew
Where could have she gone?
The river that ever flows between us
Is here to test us again
Bringing this everlasting feeling in my chest
I am going to meet Orihime
Hikoboshi, oh yes
C’mon, Hikoboshi, oh yes
The Milky Way is super annoying
But I like the smooth bamboo leaves, they’re so cute
We do meet this day every year
But what about the other 364?
How could you leave a gyaru all alone like that?
But my hands hurt from so much weaving
I’m seriously thinking of dropping this gig
I wanna live and eat just off my rap
She’s later than usual for our meeting
And then the party gyaru’s eyes meet mine
So graceful you were, how you changed
A kimono I’ve never seen before, honey-colored hair
The taciturn you that I once knew
Where could have she gone?
“You haven’t changed at all in a year”
She laughs at my dumbfounded face
The modest you that I once knew
Where could have she gone?
