——

With the long journey across the seas over
The ship spends the night in port
In the sailor’s bar, everyone forgets
The toils of the sea with the rum in their glasses
Ah, Number 13 in Minatomachi

On the pavement along the avenue of gingko trees
It’s been a long time since I’ve walked it with you
Attracted by the neon lights
As we turn left along the jetty road
Ah, Number 13 in Minatomachi

The flower that bloomed when our ship reached port
Was scattered by the wind when we set off again
Holding back tears, we did a toast
The new moon is crying outside the window
Ah, Number 13 in Minatomachi

AQUARIUS, the frozen
Sun shines out
Let’s journey to the glacial desert
Along the caravan’s path
AQUARIUS, heal
This too-intense pain
I want to be loved by you, a love deeper than the sea

Dancing skilfully, the snow fairies hurry down to earth
Cheers and desire, all are buried in this night’s ball

In just 1 second, love and future, all is changed
Ahh, just to have met, I want to be embraced

AQUARIUS, lost
In this galaxy
Watch me, and only me
Until the world ends
AQUARIUS, in this era
We can’t even see tomorrow
But I want to burn bright, like the shining comets

To a mirage of you, after the white blizzard has passed
Clad in a crimson dress, hope draws out a trace

I want everything now to burn in your eyes
We will surely reach it, a true love

AQUARIUS, save
This trembling soul
As long as the universe lives
I won’t forget this promise
AQUARIUS, tell of
This frozen loneliness
I want you to protect me, more gently than anyone else

AQUARIUS, the frozen
Sun shines out
Let’s journey to the glacial desert
Along the caravan’s path
AQUARIUS, heal
This too-intense pain
I want to be loved by you, a love deeper than the sea

AQUARIUS, lost
In this galaxy
Watch me, and only me
Until the world ends
AQUARIUS, in this era
We can’t even see tomorrow
But I want to burn bright, like the shining comets

LOVE DESIRE – MAX

21 Thursday Mar 2013

Posted by Misa-chan in lyrics, MAX

≈ Leave a comment


from MAXIMUM GROOVE album.

——

As if stirring up the heart so much more
Love always wishes for drama
When we get too used to kindness
The excitement abates
Our hearts resound together as we share a hot kiss

I’m in LOVE DESIRE
Embrace me tighter
As we love each other
You become essential
I’m in LOVE DESIRE
Surrounded by passion
Even if this world
Is destroyed, it doesn’t matter to me

It’s alright to cool down a bit
Even happiness wishes for thrills
Mundane ways of love
Will turn tedious
There is surely a love that only we can have

I’m in LOVE DESIRE
Don’t let go of the heartthrobs
Because right after intimacy
Love starts to get cold
I’m in LOVE DESIRE
Show me your everything
This mystery which can’t be easily solved
I want it to burn me up now

I’m in LOVE DESIRE
Embrace me tighter
As we love each other
You become essential
I’m in LOVE DESIRE
Surrounded by passion
Even if this world
Is destroyed, it doesn’t matter to me

Many Happy Returns – CHAGE

21 Thursday Mar 2013

Posted by Misa-chan in CHAGE, lyrics

≈ Leave a comment

Many Happy Returns / CHAGE

from Many Happy Returns album.

——

Woo Woo Today too, the weather’s nice
Woo Woo Tomorrow too, it’ll be even better

When nothing interesting happens in the morning, let’s start with a beer!
And then, let’s go in search for something warmer

Fragrances from the bakery, the crybaby from next door
Flowers blooming in the alley

Barked at by a wolfhound, I beat a quick retreat
Avoiding a falling flowerpot at the same time, that was lucky

“I’m sorry”, and I looked up at the balcony
That girl, the town belle waiting in my dreams

Swaying in the train, I took a nap
And before I knew it, it’s Waikiki, my heart says “Aloha”

Such happiness, let’s share it with everyone
I mean, this is just Many Many Happy Returns

Woo Woo Today too, the weather’s nice
Woo Woo Tomorrow too, it’ll be even better

Even on stormy days, with just one umbrella
Sharing it with my beloved you makes it happy and fun

I’ll think about yesterday’s misses two days later
By then, things will probably be going well

Delicious meals make me smile
When I’m depressed, I eat some Loco Moco and listen to the waves’ serenade

This happiness, granted to me by everyone
Makes me want to dance, Many Many Happy Returns

I mean, this is just Many Many Happy Returns
I feel so loved, Many Many Happy Returns
Just sing a song, Many Many Happy Returns

Mainichi ga Special – Takeuchi Mariya

21 Thursday Mar 2013

Posted by Misa-chan in lyrics, Takeuchi Mariya

≈ Leave a comment

毎日がスペシャル (Mainichi ga supesharu) – Everyday is special

from
Mainichi ga Special single,
Bon Appetit! album,
Expressions album.

——

Everyday is special, everyday is special
Everyday is a special day

A weekday that begins with rain is the seed of melancholy
Messy hair, low spirits
Undone homework, a careless word from the boyfriend
Just remembering these discouraged me again
But I’ve realized that taking a breath as I wake up in the morning is happiness too
Even if the weather’s bad, even if it isn’t a holiday
Even if my daily horoscope isn’t “lucky”

Everyday is special, everyday is special
Special day for everyone
Everyday is special, everyday is special
Everyday is a special day

A cinnamon roll stuffed in my mouth, I hurried to the station
But late by 5 seconds, the train had gone
With loafers dirty and heavy with rain
I felt like crying at that moment
But I know that life depends on how my heart sees things
So even if I’m not an honours student, even if I’m not popular
Even if I don’t have a nice body

Everyday is special, everyday is special
Special day for everyone
Everyday is special, everyday is special
Everyday is a special day

Everyone is growing older bit by bit
So every boring day is actually really precious too
Even if today’s not my birthday, even if it isn’t an anniversary
Even if it’s not payday

Everyday is special, everyday is special
Special day for everyone
Everyday is special, everyday is special
Everyday is a special day

Everyday is special, everyday is special
Special day for everyone
Everyday is special, everyday is special
Everyday is a special day

Very very special day!

Fly high – ayumi hamasaki

16 Saturday Mar 2013

Posted by Misa-chan in ayumi hamasaki, lyrics

≈ Leave a comment

LOVEppears / Ayumi Hamasaki
from Fly high single + LOVEppears album.

——

I’ve always been unable to let go
Because of the scenery which I’ve become used to seeing

Even if I come to this place again someday
Will I still be able to look at the same sky
In the same way and say that it looks beautiful?
Maybe I’m just thinking too much
So let me sleep a little, before rushing off again tomorrow

Those ‘one step’s which I never took because I was afraid
Has all come together to form a long, long road
And it’s all too late now
So I thought about the place where I am now
And concluded that it’s not such a bad place afterall
As I came up with excuses for myself

In truth, I had never understood a single time
I just pretended that I knew it all

I’ve always been unable to let go
Because of the scenery which I’ve become used to seeing

Somehow, everything seems so small
Looking like small clumps to me
Maybe because the sky I looked up at
Was so endless and too wide
Maybe because I was by your side

In my head, I did understand
But I still turn around to look at that someone from somewhere
As they passed me by, and feel envious

Just how long more do I have to face these ridiculous demands?
I thought this way, because I met you

Everything must surely be in this hand
I can’t leave my dreams at this place
Everything must surely be in this hand
I don’t need a predetermined future

Everything must surely be in this hand
If I don’t move on, nothing will move
Everything must surely be in this hand
If I don’t start out, nothing will begin
