reach for the moon – Otsuka Ai

26 Sunday Apr 2015

Posted by Misa-chan in lyrics, Otsuka Ai

≈ Leave a comment


from LOVE TRiCKY album.

——

I feel like bursting, like a whirlpool of bubbles
The you in the mirror looks so stern
I’d rather we throw everything away, shall we go somewhere far away?
I’m joking, I’ve no courage, I’m just afraid
Moving back and forth between ideals and reality
I want to stop, don’t want to be me today

Facing Platform 1, where the wordless romance has stopped
I’ll never reach out anyway, so I can say it now, those words with this gaze
Facing Platform 1, where the wordless romance has stopped
I’ll never reach out anyway, so I can say it now, those words with this gaze “I love you”

Once more, once more. Hey, let me chase after it
Once more, once more. Hey, let me crawl after it

When the end of the dream approaches, like an orgel that’s come to a halt

A moment of magical silliness, suddenly I think of that time
“I’ll surely be smiling in the future”, who can I say that to?
A moment of magical silliness, suddenly I remember your face
“I’ll surely be smiling in the future”, and I’ll forget tonight’s moon by then

With a chance telephone call, reach for the moon and the wonderful night

Facing Platform 1, where the wordless romance has stopped
I’ll never reach out anyway, so I can say it now, those words with this gaze
Facing Platform 1, where the wordless romance has stopped
I’ll never reach out anyway, so I can say it now, those words with this gaze, I love you.

Relax In The City – Perfume

Relax In The City / Pick Me Up / Perfume Relax In The City / Pick Me Up / Perfume
from Relax In The City / Pick Me Up single.

——

With a lifted heart, wonderful things, come, let them begin
One two three. Find a great view point.
Here we go. You have a place
Maybe the present is going to make something change
One two three. Find a great view point.
Here we go. Your special seat

Relax, always with you
We search for a comfortable place
The faraway townscape
We watch it from under a shaded tree
Relax, with you again today
We search for a comfortable place
The sun peeking out from beneath those faraway clouds
I wish it’ll warm me up

Let our hearts dance, wonderful things, come, let’s begin
One two three. Find a great view point.
Here we go. You have a place
Let’s gather round the table by the window and chat
One two three. Find a great view point.
Here we go. Your special seat

Relax, always with you
We search for a comfortable place
The faraway townscape
We watch it from under a shaded tree
Relax, with you again today
We search for a comfortable place
The sun peeking out from beneath those faraway clouds
I wish it’ll warm me up

Relax In The City

Relax, always with you
We search for a comfortable place
The faraway townscape
We watch it from under a shaded tree
Relax, with you again today
We search for a comfortable place
The sun peeking out from beneath those faraway clouds
I wish it’ll warm me up

NO FUTURE – ayumi hamasaki

24 Friday Apr 2015

Posted by Misa-chan in ayumi hamasaki, lyrics

≈ Leave a comment

A One / Ayumi Hamasaki A One / Ayumi Hamasaki A One / Ayumi Hamasaki
from A ONE album.

——

“We met too late”
Please don’t say that
I am already
Holding my tears back
When should we
Have met then?
Just who knows the right answer
To that?

The days I’ll see you
Looking at the calendar
In my heart
I count them day by day
Just by that
Just by that, I can hang on
Such days like this
What can I do?

Meeting your eyes
Touching your cheek
Seeing your side profile
That day, I fell for you
Questions like why, questions like when
Questions like how much
I have no intention of asking them

The backlash of loneliness
That comes after happiness
No matter how many times I experience it
I can never get used to it
Saying “goodbye” instead of “see you tomorrow”
Is just so cold
When “see you tomorrow”
Is always what I really wanted to say

On nights I can’t see you
I wait for my phone to ring
As feelings of anxiety
Repeat within me
Such feelings are surely
Weird and lonely
Such days like this
What am I waiting for?

I wish that
You would just say that
“Things like love don’t exist”
I want to hear you say
That I’ve been seeing an illusion
That it isn’t love at all

“We met too late”
Please don’t say that
I am already
Holding my tears back
When should we
Have met then?

I wish that
You would just say that
“Things like love don’t exist”
I want to hear you say
Just once
That you’d
Never love someone like me

Meeting your eyes
Touching your cheek
Falling for your side profile
Questions like why, questions like when
I have no intention of asking them

Meeting your eyes
Touching your cheek
Falling for your side profile
Questions like why, questions like when
I have no intention of asking them

Meeting your eyes
Touching your cheek
Falling for your side profile
Questions like why, questions like when
I have no intention of asking them

Tell me it doesn’t matter
When we’ve met

Sakura, oboeteite kure – SKE48

24 Friday Apr 2015

Posted by Misa-chan in lyrics, SKE48

≈ Leave a comment

Performed by Satou Mieko, Nakanishi Yuuka, and Furukawa Airi.

桜、覚えていてくれ (Sakura, oboeteite kure) – Sakura, remember

Coquettish Jyutaichu / SKE48 Coquettish Jyutaichu / SKE48
from Coquettish juutaijuu single.

——

Since the time when we first met
The sky had always been blue
It hadn’t been all sunny days
But for some reason, I don’t remember it raining

All of us together
On the road to our dreams
Giving each other encouragement
As we continued to walk
One after the other
We said goodbye to people
But we did so with a smile
And now, it’s my turn

Sakura, remember
The days before the flowers bloomed…
No matter the pain
Because we were together
We overcame it all
Sakura, remember
My existence…
Believe in the sun
Look up at this tree
Bid goodbye to this blooming season

The weather forecast for the next day
Was always sunny
Even on sad nights, the skies in our hearts
Were full of stars

The way to work hard
The amount we sweated
Everyone competed
With obstinate willpower
Sometimes, we collide
And get on bad terms, but
In the end, we understood
That we share the same destination

Even when the sakura have wilted
The branches still reach out for dreams
Next year, we’ll come here again
Nostalgic friends
You’ll remember us, right?
Even when the sakura have wilted
They will bloom again when spring comes
Are you doing well?
Look up at the sky
And receive courage, goodbye

Sakura, remember
The days before the flowers bloomed…
No matter the pain
Because we were together
We overcame it all
Sakura, remember
My existence…
Believe in the sun
Look up at this tree
Thank you for this blooming season

Oto wo keshita TV – SKE48

24 Friday Apr 2015

Posted by Misa-chan in lyrics, SKE48

≈ Leave a comment

Performed by Team E.

音を消したテレビ (Oto wo keshita terebi) – Muted TV

Coquettish Jyutaichu / SKE48 Coquettish Jyutaichu / SKE48
from Coquettish juutaijuu single.

——

Living alone in a 1DK
Is just too silent

As an unfulfilling day ends
I make my way to the nearby convenience store
Buying potato chips and ice cream
I return home with quick steps

As if separating myself from sorrow
I close the room door with a bang, turning the lock
Let me compose myself and cry slowly

First, turn on the TV
Adjust the volume to the lowest
On a boring drama show
That has nothing to do
With my life
On the edge of this world

A half bath in a tub filled with slightly warm water
Wanting to forget the passing of time
When usually, I would sing out loud
Two or three songs

My method of dealing with unhappy times
Lesson 1 I learned from experience
Is not to cry in front of others

Quickly turning on the TV
Adjust the volume to the lowest
On a boring drama show
Don’t want to hear anything
Not even another’s voice
Cutting all ties with the world

Then, I’ll fall sound asleep
And when I wake, later than usual
All the gloomy feelings will be gone
And I can strive on with a refreshed mood

Come, turn on the TV
And turn up the volume
Maybe I’ll watch the morning news
My life
Will continue today
On the edge of this world

On the edge of this world

Misa’s note:
– 1DK is an acronym for a Japanese one-room apartment with attached dining and kitchen area.

Konya wa Join us! – SKE48

24 Friday Apr 2015

Posted by Misa-chan in lyrics, SKE48

≈ Leave a comment

Performed by Team KII.

今夜はJoin us! (Konya wa Join us!) – Join us tonight!

Coquettish Jyutaichu / SKE48 Coquettish Jyutaichu / SKE48
from Coquettish juutaijuu single.

——

Putting on the dress I borrowed from Mama
I somehow felt like I’ve become an adult
Tonight, I’m different from how I usually am
Would you notice it if we happen to meet?

It’s a crowd
At the party venue, I’m nervous
Beautiful girls
Block my way, just like obstacles
I feel like crying

Join us!
Come over here
Into my dreams, come here of your own accord
Prom night!
Make way
I’ve always always been waiting for you
Grab my arm
And pull me into
Love’s hour

The rumored couple in school
Are kissing, as if wanting to be seen
Since yesterday, everyone’s changed
Is tonight the end of the world?

Unable to confess
We stay as friends
Caught in turmoil
If I can just dance with you once
I’ll be happy

Join us!
Come over here
My body rides on the Motown rhythm, carried away
Happy time!
It’s so magical
I feel like I’m being reeled in by invisible threads
Into your arms
And you were there
To catch me

Join us!
Come over here
Into my dreams, come here of your own accord
Prom night!
Make way
I’ve always always been waiting for you
Grab my arm
And pull me into
Love’s hour

Out of control – ayumi hamasaki

22 Wednesday Apr 2015

Posted by Misa-chan in ayumi hamasaki, lyrics

≈ Leave a comment

A One / Ayumi Hamasaki A One / Ayumi Hamasaki A One / Ayumi Hamasaki
from A ONE album.

——

I used to cry alone
With no place to go
I used to cry without reason
Maybe something just made me sad

I could cry back then
The tears just flowed
But I can’t cry now
I’ve forgotten how to do so

I smile and I smile, but my heart
Just feels like it isn’t full
Every time I smile, my chest
Just feels so tight, why is that?

Unable to shed tears, so heartless, loneliness controls me
On such a night, and I want to see noone but you
Noone, only you, can’t have anyone but you
But that’s just me, I have no reason to explain that

The Sun rises and sets
Earnestly repeating
And in that midst, countless
Stories intertwine

On the far side of this wide world
When a single life is lost
Someone else’s life begins
As someone else chooses to end it all

What does it mean to live? What does it mean to strive?
I don’t know anymore, don’t want to see anyone but you
Noone, only you, can’t have anyone but you
Just for tonight, just be mine

Unable to shed tears, so heartless, loneliness controls me
On such a night, and I want to see noone but you
Noone, only you, can’t have anyone but you
But that’s just me, I have no reason to explain that

What does it mean to live? What does it mean to strive?
I don’t know anymore, don’t want to see anyone but you
Noone, only you, can’t have anyone but you
Just for tonight, just be mine

Just lie and nod in agreement

DIRTY – SKE48

22 Wednesday Apr 2015

Posted by Misa-chan in lyrics, SKE48

Performed by Team S.

Coquettish Jyutaichu / SKE48 Coquettish Jyutaichu / SKE48
from Coquettish juutaijuu single.

——

The fluorescent lights on the rotting ceiling
Short out
Reality and illusion flicker
On the walls

The obsolete factory
What had it been making till now?
Solidified machine oil
Like stained black tears

The world is
DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY
DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY
Everything is dirtied
DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY
DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY
Even truth is buried
But we can’t give up
Surviving while smeared with lies
Even though it’s unpleasantly stained
Love is still there

On the floor, countless footprints
And drainage holes
Murky water dripping
From a nearby pipe

Just as if we’re dreaming
Painful sorrow is created
Trash that cannot be disposed
Deserted pain and shadows

We are
DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY
DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY
Everyone is in despair, but
DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY
DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY
The FUTURE is not dirty
So let us start over once again
While spreading detergent on the past
That side that was once disdained
Let’s polish it with love

Clean up from here! Sweat it!
WOW WOW WOW…
Clean up now! A brand new start!

The world is
DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY
DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY
Everything is dirtied
DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY
DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY
Even truth is buried
DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY
DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY
Everyone is in despair, but
DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY
DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY
The FUTURE is not dirty
So let us start over once again
While spreading detergent on the past
That side that was once disdained
Let’s polish it with love

When I look at the clear blue sky
Why is it
That I’ll always
Think of you?

Are you drenched in sorrow?
Those cloudy troubles
Have they disappeared for you?

Near (your dreams)
The wind (is strong)
It’s not always sunny days

I know
How hard you strive…
The obstacles you’ve overcome…
But the upward slope
Still continues on
You won’t admit defeat
As I watch over you from here

The backs of those seniors
Who are running
Ahead of you
You’ll be able to see them soon

Do you talk to your comrades?
When you’re feeling bitter
Do you let them know?

The goal (of your dreams)
You can’t (go at it alone)
Let’s share the joy!

I know
That regret you feel…
Even the tears you hide…
So someday
I hope you will be rewarded
Your future smile
I’ll pray for it here

I wonder again and again
Just what can I do
For you?

I know
How hard you strive…
The obstacles you’ve overcome…
But the upward slope
Still continues on
You and your comrades’
Dreams will come true
And you will smile. Until that day comes
We will wait

コケティッシュ渋滞中 (Koketisshu juutaijuu) – In a coquettish jam

Those new clothes suit you so well
Maybe it’s because you’d let down your hair
Street corner runway, you wave your hand
At the pedestrian crossing

April’s wind (If it blows)
Girls (every single one)
Will be reborn (as adults)
As if spring’s magic had been wrought
They somehow appear more dazzling than yesterday

Coquettish
Caught in your jam
Everyone is charmed
(Rooted to the spot)
You’re cute
My heart is stolen
His and mine
Our feet halt
For you, pheromone girl

Green man, people mill back and forth
Every time you turn to me
Even though you’re not my girlfriend
I feel so proud

Since long ago (I know you well)
We were childhood pals (like siblings)
I was surprised (thought I was mistaken)
It’s been so long since I saw you
And before I knew it, I’m in love

Coquettish
I’m caught in a jam
Can’t move now
(From here)
You’re beautiful
But I can’t say that
Even though I’m by your side
I make no progress
Just your friend, a boy

Coquettish
Caught in your jam
Everyone is charmed
(Rooted to the spot)
You’re cute
My heart is stolen
His and mine
Our feet halt
For you, pheromone girl
