Shitsuren doumei – AKB48

失恋同盟 (Shitsuren doumei) – Jilted alliance

from Shitsuren doumei single.

——

Even if you deny, saying that it’s all a lie (really?)
He is still going to get married
We were both once his girlfriend (and then)
We were, sadly, quickly dumped

We used to be rivals in the past
Working hard not to lose out to each other
Just hearing
Tiny rumours about the other
Always made us feel jealousy

He is not the only man
The world is so vast
There are others
Yes, let’s believe
He is not the only man
Just look, there are many more
Wipe away your tears
Let’s hang on, jilted alliance

Hurt and regretful, you can cry (boo-hoo)
And trash his reputation, but
We will just end up sighing (sigh~)
And reflecting on our trickling affections

We used to try to drag at each other’s heels
Insulting and gossiping about the other, but
We are now
Best friends
Our common enemy is his fiancée

What’s so good about her? I don’t know
She’s not even that cute…
As for her personality
She surely has a bad side
What’s so good about her? I don’t know
He really can’t pick at all
We’ll make each other happy
Let’s promise, jilted alliance

But, hey
Yes, I know, hey
There may not be anyone better than him…

He is not the only man
The world is so vast
There are others
Yes, let’s believe
He is not the only man
Just look, there are many more
Wipe away your tears
Let’s hang on, jilted alliance

Lalala…
Lalala…

I can sense it 100 metres ahead
That I’ll catch something of yours
To put it as a scientific theory
It’s just an unexplainable something

No matter where I go or what I do
You and I will unite
We’re compatible, even without words
This man and woman’s theory of evolution

WOW WOW
Our souls surely
Came from the same world
Like breathing in
Like breathing out
Love is synchronicity

Who allowed us to meet?
Everyone calls it destiny
To me, you have always been
An irreplaceable person
Who allowed us to meet?
What purpose did they put into motion?
On this dot in the vast universe
Both you and I are existing
There is definitely a reason for it

Lalala…
Lalala…

Like the shining light of the stars
I accept the message
Love is not an impulse
But memories from before we were born

WOW WOW
When I held you in these arms
I felt a strong sense of nostalgia
Like that wind
Like that sun
My heart is warm

Why are we in love?
That is God’s will
Even though I say that with a know-it-all look
I can’t see the real truth
Why are we in love?
I feel something when our eyes meet
If we could rewind the eras
Love is like genetics
Coming on a long journey to now

Lalala…
Lalala…

Airport de machi awase – BoA

エアポートで待ち合わせ (Eapooto de machi awase) – Rendezvous at the airport

from FLY single.

——

Barely safe days
Almost, somehow or another
A weekend stolen from love, work and friends

Unable to catch a taxi
As if unmindful of ways and manners
Accumulating stress, a panicked phonecall
“Sorry, I’ll be 30 minutes late…”

Desperately squeezing it
Into my puzzle of a schedule
I’ve become a woman who can do whatever she wants
But I can’t do a single thing

Hey… My destination is…
Turning Right, Turning Left, then the highway
Never Stop, Never Stop, Never Stop from the window
Soaring white Airplane
“Give It Up, Give It Up, Give It Up…”
My fingers tweeted
I’ll go do what I didn’t do, My Darling
My heart goes Up Up Down Up Up Down (Down)
Up Up Down Up Up Down (Down)
Rendezvous at the unexpected airport

Suddenly, a timid message
“I don’t think you’ll make it in time”
I laughed and sent back a teasing reply
Without any true feelings…
I’ve become a woman, but I can’t have a good romance

Please, my destination is…
Turning Right, Turning Left, then the highway
Never Stop, Never Stop, Never Stop from the window
Soaring white Airplane
“Give It Up, Give It Up, Give It Up…”
My fingers tweeted
Don’t ask, just come to see me now, My Darling
My heart goes Up Up Down Up Up Down (Down)
Up Up Down Up Up Down (Down)
Rendezvous at the unexpected airport

Morning starts with a work Meeting
With sweet sweets, Healing
But I need to slim down a little
Heading to the gym for yoga Everyday
On SNS, it’ll be great
If everyone can give me “like”s
A glossy Beautiful Life! …What?
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah

My destination is
Turning Right, Turning Left, then the highway
Never Stop, Never Stop, Never Stop from the window
Soaring white Airplane
“Give It Up, Give It Up, Give It Up…”
My fingers tweeted
I’m going to find myself, My Darling
My heart goes Up Up Down Up Up Down (Down)
Up Up Down Up Up Down (Down)
Rendezvous at the unexpected airport

FLY – BoA

from FLY single.

——

It’s not here
Yes, surely, somewhere else
There is hope, like seeing a dream
Unable to love a single thing in the present
With endless anxiety
Yes, of meaningless things

How I started it all again?
How I ended it all again?
Lost, I cried and laughed again and again
Always, I would look up at the sky at last
And spread my transparent wings

So I’m flying, becoming the wind
I’ll embrace the person I was that day
It’s my life, I’m here
I know that I grow a little stronger every time I lose my way

A reliable rhythm, Feel the beat of my heart
Even when I’m sad and want to cry
It’s about the time. It’s about the time
I’ll, Fight my memories

They’re not here
Anymore, surely, nowhere else
Will there be anyone to love me
Unable to love the me now
With eternal sorrow
Of things without reason

How I started it all again?
How I ended it all again?
Please don’t take control of my heart
Even if I won’t understand the story till the very end
I’ll believe in my new self

So I’m flying, riding the wind
I’ll chase after the person I am in the future
It’s my life, facing forward
I know that it becomes a little easier every time I move on

A reliable rhythm, Feel the beat of my heart
Even in the midst of real loneliness
It’s about the time. It’s about the time
I’ll, Fight for Tomorrow

Crying at the paleness of the sky
The world is Beautiful and Wonderful
Even knowing the transcience of dreams and hope
I’ll continue to dream
Of the moment when miracles are born

I’m flying, becoming the wind
I’ll embrace the person I was that day
It’s my life, I’m here
I know that I grow a little stronger every time I lose my way

A reliable rhythm, Feel the beat of my heart
Even when I’m sad and want to cry
It’s about the time. It’s about the time
I’ll, Fight my memories
