A sudden rainfall came down in a foreign town
on the day I first saw you
wondering - worrying -
about your high-heeled shoe.

A certain youthfulness hid in your silhouette;
oh, those words we spoke that day,
even now - in my mind -
I can't put them away.

The debut of the cinema,
it fills me with feeling;
straight from your little whispers,
they ring throughout to the last scene.

These naked toes you once held in your warm embrace;
but today these little things
are wiggling - quivering -
they shake and yet they're still...

Are you just playing the part of a mademoiselle?
One who feels a little blue?
Please relax - between the acts -
I'll sing a love song for you...

The debut of the cinema,
it fills me with feeling;
straight from your little whispers,
they ring throughout to the last scene.

Next to the ocean we both wait for dusk to come;
and the sun, we watch it go.
Forgetting - just barely -
the dance we used to know.

Your part and my part are destined together here;
memories in our story;
on curtain fall - perhaps then all -
the waves wash them to sea.

The debut of the cinema,
it fills me with feeling;
straight from your little whispers,
they ring throughout to the last scene.

Until they end the cinema,
I give myself to you;
I force myself to smile,
for I must say "sayonara"...

The debut of the cinema,
it fills me with feeling;
straight from your little whispers,
they ring throughout to the last scene.

(Until they end the cinema,)
Cinema...
Cinema...
Cinema...
