Until the Lights Go Out

灯りが消えるまで

The last bus leaves, the teams change, and nobody is ready to stop playing. A miss or a block is another reason to call for the next ball.放課後のコートでチームを替え、バスを見送り、もう一試合。ミスもブロックも、またボールを呼ぶ理由になる。

Behind the Track楽曲の背景

Backpacks sit along the fence while friends choose teams and tease each other after misses. The bus arrives, but nobody wants to be the first to leave.

Changing sides makes a teammate the next defender. A block sends the ball to the fence; a shouted reply sends the game straight back into motion. Even when the lights finally go out, tomorrow’s meeting place is settled.

フェンス際にバッグを並べ、チームを決める。シュートが外れれば笑い声が上がり、すぐにボールが戻ってくる。バスが来ても、まだ帰る気にはなれない。

チームを替えれば、さっきの味方が目の前の守備になる。ブロックされたボールを拾いに行き、ひと言返して、また次のプレーへ。灯りが消えたあとも、明日集まる場所は決まっている。

Lyrics歌詞

Backpacks lined along the fence
Double knots in dusty shoes
Someone's yelling, "Pick your team!"
I point across the court at you
First shot rattles round the rim
You catch it laughing on the bounce
You send it right back to my hands
We haven't even warmed up yet

又打铁了?
再来!

The shadows stretch across the paint
The bus pulls up outside
You look at me, I look at you
We let it pass us by

Till the lights go out
I'm not ready to go home
Hit me cutting down the lane
I can get there, let it go
Let the last bus leave without us
We can walk the long way round
I've got one more game in me
Till the lights go out

We switch the teams at seven points
Now you're standing in my way
I find a gap and take my shot
You're waiting half a step away
You rise and send it to the fence
Then land there grinning ear to ear
I jog across to get it back
You make sure everybody hears

请你吃火锅!
下一球!

The streetlights flicker through the fence
We're sweating through our shirts
You ask me if I've had enough
I barely catch the words

Till the lights go out
I'm not ready to go home
Hit me cutting down the lane
I can get there, let it go
Let the last bus leave without us
We can walk the long way round
I've got one more game in me
Till the lights go out

Maybe I'll make the starting five
Maybe I'll hear a bigger crowd
Tonight you whistle through your teeth
And that's the loudest thing around
You toss it back against my chest
I catch it with my fingers spread
Somebody calls, "Last game, for real!"
We're picking sides again

Till the lights go out
I'm not ready to go home
Hit me cutting down the lane
I can get there, let it go
Let the last bus leave without us
We can walk the long way round
I've got one more game in me
Till the lights go out

The lights go out
You bounce it once
Same time tomorrow?
You know where I'll be
