Promise me
Promise me
People can make commitments they can’t keep
But we know we aren’t that cheap
Can you promise me
That you won’t ever never ever
Make me weep
Why can’t you feel the way I do
Love and cherish me
* I will be there for you
If you’ll be here for me
And I will do all I can
To be your everything
Please don’t say maybe
Just make me your baby
** Promise me
Promise me
That your love will never ever change
Don’t start actin’ strange
Promise me
Promise me
That your love will never ever change
My love’s not a game
Your love is there for sure
As the sky above
But I can’t afford to lose
This love
This special love
Why won’t you say that it’s true
Say you’ll always be there for me
For me
* repeat
** repeat
Let me know from your heart
This love of ours is special
You’re the one I’m waiting for
Tell me you want me
I’ve been true from the start
But I can’t wait forever
Promise me
Promise me
Promise me your love
** repeat
just holdin’ your hand
Seein’ you smile
I can’t live without you
I’m a prisoner of love
Prisoner of love
Just a prisoner of love
I’m just a prisoner of love
A prisoner of love
I’m a prisoner of love
Prisoner of love
Just a prisoner of love
I’m just a prisoner of love

heiki na kao de uso wo tsuite

I lied with calmly look
and laughed. It became annoysome
so I tried to find an easy way out.

yasuragi wo motometeiru

Begging for things that I do not have–blues.
I am seeking for peace.
I have it enough but keep fighting over it.
I am chasing after the shadow of love.

since the day you appeared.
I felt I mind neither the solitude nor agony.

Pretentious strength and greed became meaningless
since the day I’m loved by you.
Freedom and easiness became void when alone
I’m just a prisoner of love
Just a prisoner of love

My Precious
My Precious Love…
Once in my life
Love’s in my heart
Touching your hand
Just takes me back again
Close the door behind you
I’m steppin’ out for love
Let me be the same as yesterday
You’re the one I dream of
So let me be your love again
* Precious love
I will do anything for your love
Precious love
I will do anything for you
Deep in my heart
Longing for you
I just can’t wait
To have you back again
Lookin’ all around me
For places you may be
The lonliness I feel is day to day
I really need to see you
And hold you in my arms again
* repeat
My Precious
My Precious Love…
Namaiki sou to omowareru daiichi inshou Ki ni shinaide
Sou saikou no bougyo wa toki ni kougeki da to iu desho
My first impression is that I seem concieted, don’t worry about it
Yes, the most effective defense is said to be an offense right?
Matsuri no oto ga yasei yobi samasu
Suzushii yoru ni netsu o sosogu
Hayari no uta ga watashi kakitateru (sounds like “play ball”)
Shoubu dokoro
The sounds of the festival revive my wild instincts
Heat flows out to the cool night
Popular songs stir me up (sounds like “play ball”)
It’s my chance to win
Tsuka no ma no chinmoku o yaburu question
Kyuukai no ura de miseru picchaa no you ni
I’m throwing my heart
Hitori demo tsuzukeru to kimeta mission
Dare ni demo suki to ieru wake ja nai
Nerai o sadamete
I’m throwing my heart at you
A question to break the brief silence
Like the pitcher at the bottom of ninth inning
I’m throwing my heart
It’s a mission I’ve decided to continue, even on my own
It’s not like I can say that I love you to anyone
Aim at the target
I’m throwing my heart at you
Natsu mo owari no kehai tadayou hachigatsu matsu Akiramenaide
Zenryoku tsukushitemo dame dattara sore mo mata fuuryuu
Signs of the end of the summer are in the air at the end of August, don’t give up
Even if things don’t go your way after using all your strength, that’s also refined
Hanabi no iro ga yokogao o someru
Sabishii sora ga kyuu ni warau
Kirei na hoshi ga kaeri okuraseru (sounds like “play ball”)
Nozomu tokoro
The color of the fireworks stain the side of my face
The lonely sky suddenly smiles
The beautiful stars slow my journey home (sounds like “play ball”)
I could ask for nothing better
Kimi no mune no doko ka ni nemuru passion
Wazuka na suki minogasanu rannaa no you ni
I’m stealing your heart
Hitori demo tsuzukeru to kimeta mission
Dare ni demo sugao miseru wake ja nai
Megane o hazushite
I’m throwing my heart
A passion that lies within your heart somewhere
Like a runner who doesn’t miss any small chance
I’m stealing your heart
It’s a mission I’ve decided to continue, even on my own
It’s not like I show my true self to anyone
Take off my glasses
I’m throwing my heart
Karei na gyakuten saseta first impression
Ashimoto ni buki o suteru hantaa no you ni
I’m showing my heart
Hitori demo tsuzukeru to kimeta mission
Dare ni demo kiba o mukeru wake ja nai
Kotae o kikasete
I’m throwing my heart at you
A splendid turnabout for my first impression
Like a hunter who drops their weapon by their feet
I’m showing my heart
It’s a mission I’ve decided to continue, even on my own
Its not like I bare my fangs at anyone
Let me hear your answer
I’m throwing my heart at you
Tsuka no ma no chinmoku o yaburu question
Kyuukai no ura de miseru picchaa no you ni
I’m throwing my heart
Hitori demo tsuzukeru to kimeta mission
Dare ni demo suki to ieru wake ja nai
Nerai o sadamete
I’m throwing my heart at you
A question to break the brief silence
Like the pitcher at the bottom of ninth inning
I’m throwing my heart
It’s a mission I’ve decided to continue, even on my own
It’s not like I can say that I love you to anyone
Aim at the target
I’m throwing my heart at you

I’m watching late night programming
with blue eyes
No matter how many channels I flip through
I can’t shake off that glance

No matter how many times
I look into the fridge, it’s the same answer
The one I’m used to hearing
The time limit is before my very eyes
But I need more time, so
Let me be

Oh no, this is a parody
But it’s my life story
Without even waiting for me
The clock pretends to know nothing
I know that there are many stories
But for me, it’s my life story
I’m not imitating anyone else
and I’m going to write the continuation
minna de onaji houkou he mukatteku

On the highway going in the same direction
as everyone else
It’s just by coincidence
When suddenly there’s a split in the road
nanagai made isoi de onegai ne
igai to semai EREBETAA
dare mo inai kara anshin
~omoiyari~kara
set me free
Hurry up to the seventh floor, please
This elevator is suprisingly small
Since no one else is around I can breath easy
Set me free from this feeling
oh no, dore mo parody

Oh no, everything’s a parody
But for anyone, it’s a true story
Even though you’re powerless,
You pretend you don’t need anything
I know we are much the same
But we just compete with each other
Without putting forth much effort,
I’m going to read the continuation
oh no, kore mo tabun parody

Oh no, this is probably also a parody
And to a stranger, definately a fake story
I can only wear my shoes
But I can walk like that, so it’s okay
I know that there are many stories
But for me this is a real story
Without waiting for the continuation
I’m going to see you

I hope the rainbow colored bus comes to pick me up soon

That worried girl suddenly studies abroad
With her heart wrenching
Ai suru hito e omoi wo yosete

I wanna be with you
So don’t you tell me that you have to go so soon

All along I was searching for my Lenore
In the words of Mr. Edgar Allan Poe
Now I’m sober and nevermore
Will the raven come to bother me at home
Calling you
Calling you home
You
Calling you
Calling you home
By the door you said you had to go
Couldn’t help me any anymore
This I saw coming long before
So I kept on staring out the window
Calling you,
Calling you home…
You,
Calling you,
Calling you home…
I am a natural entertainer
Aren’t we all holding pieces of dying ember?
I’m just trying to remember who I can call,
Who can I call?
Home,
Calling you,
Calling you…
I run a secret propaganda
Aren’t we all hiding pieces of broken anger?
I’m just trying to remember who I can call,
Who can I call?
Born in a war of opposite attraction
It isn’t, or is it a natural conception?
Torn by the arms in opposite directions
It isn’t, or is it a Modernist reaction?
Born in a war of opposite attraction
It isn’t, or is it a natural conception?
Torn by the arms in opposite directions
It isn’t, or is it a Modernist reaction?
Is it like this?
(Born in a war of opposite attraction)
Is it always the same?
When a heartache begins,
(Torn by the arms in opposite directions)
Is it like this?
Do you like this?
(Born in a war of opposite attraction)
Is it always the same?
Will you come back again?
(Torn by the arms in opposite directions)
Do you like this?
Is it always the same?
And will you come back again?
Do you like this?
Oh, do you like this?
Is it like this?
(Born in a war of opposite attraction)
Is it always the same?
(It isn’t, or is it a natural conception?)
(Torn by the arms in opposite directions)
If you change your phone number,
(It isn’t, or is it a Modernist reaction?)
Will you tell me?
Is it like this?
Is it always the same?
When a heartache begins,
Is it like this?
If you like this,
Will you remember my name?
Will you come play it again,
If you like this?
Oh, do you like this?
