Kaisou Ressha

Kaisou Ressha (海想列車) is the third original song of Minato Aqua. It was first performed at her 3rd anniversary live on August 9, 2021, with the music video premiering soon after.
The name of the song has a multi-layered meaning that’s based on the kanji that can be used to write it.</br>
海想, read as “kaisō”, doesn’t have a meaning on its own, but when you consider the meanings of both kanji separately it references thoughts, ideas (想) and the sea (海)</br>
The first layer of meaning is in 回想, also read as “kaisō”, which means recollection, retrospection, reflection, or reminiscence.</br>
Another layer of meaning comes from 回送, still read as “kaisō”, which is used to refer to a train that is moving back to its starting station without picking up passengers.</br>
Another double meaning involves 海上, read as “kaijou”, (the literal meaning of it is “on the sea” or “surface of the sea”) and another kanji that has the same reading, 会場 which in the context of idols means “venue”, or in other words, a stage to perform on.</br>

海想列車　ほんの少しだけ　夢の中で</br>
ゆらゆら揺られて　波に包まれていたい</br>
夢を見てた　あの頃の夢を</br>
臆病だった　どこにも行けなかった</br>
変わりたくて　電車に乗り込んだ</br>
この世界で一枚だけの切符</br>
路線図も時刻表も</br>
今は空白だけど</br>
窓の向こうには</br>
青より青い水平線</br>
海想列車　ほんの少しだけ</br>
怖いけれど</br>
走り出した夢はもう止まらない</br>
正解なんて考えてみても</br>
わからないから</br>
目の前に広がる</br>
この景色を見ていたい</br>
夢を見てたあの頃の夢を</br>
一人じゃきっと　ここまで来れなかった</br>
途中の駅で降りた　その時にも</br>
君がいつも傍にいてくれた</br>
「ごめんね」も「ありがとう」も</br>
まだ言い足りてないよ</br>
私のペースで</br>
不器用なりに伝えてくから</br>
海上を走り抜け</br>
まだ知らない世界へ</br>
空白の路線図は</br>
今この手で</br>
作り上げてゆく</br>
海想列車　夢から覚めた</br>
懐かしくて</br>
変わらない想いをそっと </br>
抱きしめた</br>
笑いあって　手を取り合って</br>
同じ時間を</br>
過ごした君と</br>
これからもずっと</br>
海想列車　もう怖くはない</br>
無我夢中で</br>
駆け抜けた日々は夢じゃないから</br>
正解なんて相変わらずまだ</br>
わからないけど</br>
目の前に広がる</br>
この景色を見ていたい</br>
Aaa~</br>
君と一緒に</br>
この景色を見ていたい</br>

English (Unofficial) = 
Seaside train. In my dream, just for a moment</br>
I want to sway softly, surrounded by the waves</br>
I saw a dream, of myself back then</br>
I was so timid, I couldn’t go anywhere</br>
I wanted to change, so I boarded the train</br>
With the only ticket in this world</br>
The route map and schedule</br>
are both empty for now</br>
Outside the window I see</br>
a deep blue horizon on the sea</br>
Seaside train. I am still</br>
A little scared</br>
But the journey of my dreams has now begun, and it won’t stop</br>
I can’t find the right answer</br>
No matter how hard I think</br>
I just want to watch the scenery</br>
unfolding in front of me</br>
I saw a dream, of myself back then</br>
If I was alone, I wouldn’t have made it this far</br>
Even when I stepped off at a station mid-way</br>
You were always there with me</br>
I haven’t said it enough</br>
The words “sorry” and “thank you”</br>
I’ll convey them to you</br>
At my own pace, in my clumsy way</br>
Running on the ocean</br>
towards an unknown world</br>
The empty route map</br>
will now be filled in</br>
with these hands</br>
Seaside train. I woke up from my dream.</br>
It felt nostalgic</br>
And I gently embraced the feelings</br>
That will never change</br>
Laughing together, hand in hand</br>
After all our shared time</br>
I still want to be with you</br>
now and forever</br>
Seaside train. I’m no longer afraid</br>
Those days</br>
That I blindly ran through were not a dream</br>
Even now, I still don’t know</br>
the right answer</br>
I want to watch the scenery</br>
unfolding in front of me</br>
Aaa~</br>
Together with you</br>
the scenery in front of me</br>
