Not actually a translation of the original, these lyrics are originally from the Studio Ghibli movie Whisper of the Heart.

From wikipedia: "The songs were actually translated by producer Toshio Suzuki's daughter Mamiko with Hayao Miyazaki writing supplemental lyrics. "

I'll admit I often watch "japanese" videos with my finger over the close button, but this was brilliant. Their attitudes made it.

I'd have thought the words "Country Roads" have a Japanese translation, after all, they have country areas, and they have roads. Unless the song (here and the Studio Ghibli direct version) stick to the English for some effect at that point.
