| The second line in the second major rap part of the song, "I've gotten used to hearing that dialect", refers to the previous line in quotes. It is presumably a family member or someone from his home town. The dialect in which that simple phrase is spoken has sort of a "country bumpkin" feel to it, if you will. |
Ho ho ho homesick...
Ho ho ho homesick...
Faraway, faraway
I haven't gone back home in awhile, so I'm going back to my home town
Time is passing
So just for today, I'm going to go back to then, just a little
I'm aware of the first time that I left
I'm glad that I'm so comfortable in this town...
I'm so homesick
The train that I got used to riding, the Shinto shrine that I don't know the name of
The restaurant that I visited all the time, the bar that I drank the nights away at
The really cheap supermarket, the game center that I played games at
The cheap candy store that I spent all my money at; These places are unchanging proof
The park that I set off fireworks in, the no-smoking ru le that I stopped ignoring
The long talks that I had with you, the wise saying that you said to me
The intersection with the slow light, that desolate old coffee shop
It's full of old manga, but we also used to meet up there
The place that had handmade boxed lunches, for some reason they had so many
And besides, they weren't very well run; I'll always be thankful to the lady who did run it though
A familiar road, a familiar place
A familiar taste and familiar people
I realized its true value when I left
It will always be waiting to warm me
As I keep that in mind, I set off on a journey again
Sure that I will come back to this town again
No matter how many times I say "I'm home" and hear "Welcome back"
The place that I was born and raised in is so great
The town's scenery, the town's air, the town's atmosphere
My memories are completely packed full
No matter how many times I say "I'm home" and hear "Welcome back"
The place that I was born and raised in is so great
It's a city in which important people are waiting for me
I have a place to come home to, so I can flap my wings with all my might
Ho ho ho homesick...
Ho ho ho homesick...
"Hey, hurry up and come home"
I've gotten used to hearing that dialect, the voice on the other side of the phone doesn't seem in good spirits
The endless overflowing feeling of homesickness
It really has been awhile since we've last spoken, I'm really sorry
Alright! I'm going back to my parents' home; They've had it for a long time
It's so nostalgic that I get the feeling like
Time has rewound itself, in my room
It's the same as it was back then
The marks on the post we used to compare heights
The graffiti left behind on the west window
the scenery that can be seen from there, is even now picturesque
I gaze out, enveloped in the sunset
An unchanging place, a place that allows my heart
It's a place that you can feel at least, your home town
I have a place to come home to, so I can flap my wings
So from tomorrow, I'll take one more step forward
No matter how many times I say "I'm home" and hear "Welcome back"
The place that I was born and raised in is so great
The town's scenery, the town's air, the town's atmosphere
My memories are completely packed full
Faraway, faraway
I haven't gone back home in awhile, so I'm going back to my home town
Time is passing
So just for today, I'm going to go back to then, just a little
I'm aware of the first time that I left
I'm glad that I'm so comfortable in this town...
I'm so homesick
Even if I go far far faraway, I'll reach it
I knock knock knock on my home sweet home
Deep in the bottom of my heart it's constantly strong
My home sweet home that's close to me
Ho ho ho homesick...
Ho ho ho homesick...
