Caged Bird – Miyamoto Shunichi

from D.N.ANGEL – Original Soundtrack II album.

——

How high up must I fly
To lose sight of you, so far away?

Maybe it’ll be easier if I avert my eyes
But always, somewhere, I wish to be seen

Because I can’t forget
I have no choice but to look up at the sky
Just like a little bird in a cage
Searching for a window, aimlessly wandering

Wanna see you right now, because I love you
Wanna run away in fear of being hurt, but
Even if my wings are trapped by invisible bonds
Even so, you’re my precious one, so much it hurts

Friends – YAWMIN

フレンズ (Furenzu) – Friends

from Ranma 1/2 Super Best album.

In a corner of the forest of nearly-toppled buildings
I swallowed my panting breaths and hid

Quickly moving along a hidden alley
Friends escape, slipping past my fingertips
It wasn’t just a game
It was destiny

The breadcrumbs dropped along the way home
Crumble on the asphalt, but
Carried by the wind beating against my back
The sounds of nostalgic footsteps, then, your voice

On the drops of nearly-spilt moon
I choked on my tears and smiled

At night, the familiar garden
Why does it seem so large? Friends
Don’t let go of this hand
I know of all the traps

Your side profile is too honest
So I can’t lie
Still remaining on my palm
The promise of that faraway day, then, your dreams

The breadcrumbs dropped along the way home
Crumble on the asphalt, but
Carried by the wind beating against my back
The sounds of nostalgic footsteps, then, your voice

Boku ni kanojo ga dekitanda – SHISHAMO

僕に彼女ができたんだ (Boku ni kanojo ga dekitanda) – I’ve got a girlfriend

from SHISHAMO album.

Wanna talk, wanna talk to someone
Wanna talk about that girl
Wanna talk, wanna talk to someone
Tell them I’ve got a girlfriend

It’s a precious secret decided between
Me and that cute girl
“Let’s keep our relationship a secret”
Oh, but…!

I’ve got a girlfriend, that’s just so so cute
I’ve got a girlfriend, just wanna show off to someone now

Can anyone tell? Can anyone out there tell?
That I’ve been dating that girl
Can anyone tell? Can anyone out there tell?
That I’ve held hands with her

Even now, that cute girl
Hasn’t told her parents about us
“I mean, it’s a secret between us two”
Oh, but…!

To our classmates, the old lady next door
The old greengrocer, even my family
Wanna spread this, wanna spread this
Wanna be teased, wanna be teased!

I’ve got a girlfriend, that’s just so so lovely
I’ve got a girlfriend, it’s great, everyone must be envious

I’ve got a girlfriend, that’s just so so cute
I’ve got a girlfriend, just wanna show off to someone now
