Suki nan desu  (He's the one who I love)
"Video Girl Ai" insert song (1992)


datte......
suki nan desu  ano hito no koto
hoka ni nan no wake mo nai
suki nan desu  ano hito no koto
itsumo	soba ni itai no

	Because......
	he's the one who I love.
	There is no other reason.
	He's the one who I love.
	I want to be with him forever.

doushite? To kikanaide
watashi ni mo  wakaranai
nando mo	settoku-shita wa
jibun no kokoro
keredomo	dame	mitai ne
ushiro o muite mo
kokoro no hari wa
ano hito	sashite ugokanai

	Don't ask "why?"
	I don't even know myself.
	How many times have I persuaded
	my own heart?
	However, it seems hopeless.
	Even turning my back,
	my heart's [compass] needle
	doesn't sway from him.

itamu kizu wo dakishimete
hibiku koe wo huri-sutete
hashitte-yuku  sono ude no naka ga
zutto BARA-iro to omou wake ja nai

	Holding on to an aching wound,
	I'll give up his resonant voice.
	I come running to your arms but
	it's not that I think everything will be rose-colored.

demo......	demo
suki nan desu
nakitai  kurai ni
shiawase yori  taisetsu-na no
suki nan desu  ano hito no koto
watashi......
suki nan desu

	But......  but
	he is who I love
	so much I want to cry.
	He's more important than my happiness.
	He's the one who I love.
	I......
	love him...

Ureshii namida (Happy tears)
"Video Girl Ai" opening theme (1992)


nichiyoubi wa  hitori no hi
PIICHIPAI wo yaita ato
sentakumono hosu you ni
shinkokyuu de nesobetta

	Sunday was a day alone.
	After I baked a peach pie,
	like airing laundry,
	I lay sprawled breathing deeply.

furueru mune ni te wo ate
mi-ageru ao-sugiru sora
ai-suru hito no namae wo
chiisaku yonde-mita
yasashiku yasashiku

	Putting my hand on my trembling heart,
	I looked up at the too blue sky.
	I said the name of the one I love
	in a small voice,
	tenderly, tenderly.

*ureshi namida ga HORORI	tameiki to issho ni
konna watashi ga	hito wo aiseru
koto ga ureshikute
ureshi namida de kasumu itsumo to chigau sora wo
kokoro wo nozoku you ni itsumade demo miteta
hitori zutto miteta

	Happy teardrops with a sigh,
	I'm so happy someone like me
	can love someone.
	In the sky different from usual blurred by happy tears,
	like looking into my heart, I was seeing forever,
	alone I was seeing forever.

nichiyoubi wa  fushigi-na hi
ichinichi wa yukkuri to
kurenagara mo  ichiban ni
daiji-na koto  oshieru no

	Sunday is a wondrous day.
	Even as the day slowly
	gets dark, it
	teaches us important things.

osanai jibun no koto wo
fukaku mitsumete-mitari
ai-suru hito no mirai wo
kokoro ni egaitari
yasashiku yasashiku

	I tried studying my youth deeply
	and drawing in my heart
	the future of the one I love,
	gently, gently.

ureshi namida ga hikaru itoshii kisetsu no naka
yatto koko made  kita ne to ieru
koi ga ureshikute
ureshi namida wo sotto mi-mamoru takai sora wo
umare-kawatta you ni itsumade demo miteta
hitori zutto miteta

	Happy tears shine, in this lovely season.
	I'm so happy our love
	can say at last we've come this far.
	In the tall sky secretly watching over happy tears,
	like I was born again, I was seeing forever,
	alone I was seeing forever.

* Repeat

Ano hi ni... (To that day...)
"Video Girl Ai" ending theme (1992)


tsumetai kaze ga	mado o nagasu no	samishii yoru
kogoeru mune	atatametakute
RIPUREI  ano natsu o
namiuchigiwa de  odokeru anata	tanoshisou yo
futari dake no	omoide no BIDEO
hitori de  nagamete-iru no

	On a lonely night when the cold wind blows in the window,
	I want to warm my frozen heart
	replaying that summer.
	Fooling around on the beach, you seem to be having fun.
	A video of memories of just the two of us,
	I view alone.

sukoshi  TEREnagara  "suki da yo" to tsubuyaiteru
usotsuki no anata no kao namida-iro de nijindeku

	While feeling a little shy and murmuring "I love you",
	your lying face is blurred with the color of tears.

anata setsunai yo gomen ne konna ni
ima mo	omoi wo nokoshiteru
futari no subete wa  kono hikari no naka naraba
mada maki-modoseru no?	ano hi ni

	I'm miserable over you! Sorry, like this,
	even now, I'm leaving behind my feelings.
	If everything about us is in this light,
	can I still rewind, to that day?

ryoute ippai no  omoide o  shinjite-ita
kurikaeshite	kazoeru kedo
koyubi kara susumenai no

	Both hands full of memories I had believed,
	I repeatedly count but
	I don't go further than my little finger.

anata  soba ni ite	soshite  "uso da yo" to
itte	kokoro wo dakishimete
futari no subete ga  kiete-shimau nara
ima sugu ni maki-modoshitai  ano hi ni

	Please be by my side, say "That's a lie!",
	and embrace my heart.
	If everything about us has disappeared,
	right now I want to rewind, to that day.

anata  setsunai yo	gomen ne	konna ni
ima mo	omoi wo nokoshiteru
futari no subete ga  kiete-shimau nara
ima sugu ni maki-modoshitai  ano hi ni

	I'm miserable over you!  Sorry, like this,
	even now, I'm leaving behind my feelings.
	If everything about us has disappeared,
	right now I want to rewind, to that day.

MESSEEJI (Message)
"Video Girl Ai" insert song (1992)


konna ni chikai basho ni	anata wa iru noni
konna ni samui basho wa  hoka ni sagasenai

	Even though you were in a place so near,
	I cannot find a place this cold anywhere else.

namae o yobu tabi ni	anata wa toozakaru
dare mo soba ni inai	yamiyo ni tesaguride
anata o sagashiteru

	Every time I call your name, you recede further away.
	Groping in the dark night when no one is beside me,
	I'm searching for you.

futari no jikan wo	kono mama tometai
anata no kokoro o  tsunaide o-kitai

	I want to stop our time together as it is.
	I want to keep [lit. tie] your heart.

kagami ni utsuranai  futari no sugata wo
furueru yubisaki de  tashikamete-miru kedo
anata ni todokanai

	Our appearance, which the mirror doesn't reflect,
	my trembling fingertips try to confirm [if it's real],
	but they don't reach you.

nanni mo shiranai  kodomo no mama nara
nanni mo ushinawazu ni	sudoori mo dekiru

	If I were a kid who didn't know anything,
	I could get through it without losing anything.

sure-chigau tabi ni  me o fusete-shimau
okubyou wa yamete  ryoute o sashi-nobete
anata o tsutsumi-komu

	When we pass each other, I lower my eyes.
	I stop being a coward, stretch out my hands, and
	wrap them around you.

GARASU Moon  (Glass Moon)
"Video Girl Ai" insert song (1992)


kata ga fureru kyori	kizukainagara
SHUUZU no cha-iro ga	aseta no mitsumeteru

	Considering that at this distance our shoulders may touch,
	I stare at the faded light brown color of your shoes.

togireru kotoba no	saki de matsu no wa
TETORA to sazanami	yureteru GARASU Moon

	Waiting for us ahead of our pausing words,
	are tetra, ripples, and a shaking glass moon.

kanashimu koto no tame ni
futari wa deatta no  naze

	Did the two of us meet
	only in order to be sad?	Why?

aoi yoru	to-iki no SAKANA ga hanete
futari wa  kowaresou na MUUN SHADOU  hibiwarete

	In the blue night, a sigh jumps like a fish.
	The two of us in fragile moon shadows... cracking...

yasashi-sugiru koe	niawanai hito
kesenai kinou o  mou itawaranaide

	Your too gentle voice doesn't suit you,
	you can't take care of unremovable yesterdays any more.

namida seki-tometa	ito o haritsume
kono mama hitori ja  aruki-dasenai

	The thread holding back my tears is straining.
	I can't walk off by myself like this.

tooku no BIRU no akari
furuete utsushite
anata yori taisetsu na
nanika ga wakaranai mama

	The light from distant buildings
	casts a trembling reflection.
	I don't know what is
	more important than you.

aoi yoru	to-iki no SAKANA ga hanete
futari wa  chigiresou na MUUN SHADOU

	In the blue night, a sigh jumps like a fish.
	The two of us, in moon shadows about to tear.

ima  saigo no SAKANA ga hanete
futari wa  kowaresou na MUUN SHADOU 	kudakarete

	Now, the last fish has jumped,
	The two of us, in fragile moon shadows... shattered...

[Moon shadow... Oh, blue moon sight...]

*sore wa itsumo yume no you ni
kowaresou ni hakanakute
sore wa itsumo aoi yoru ni
furerarezu ni  ukande

	It's always like a dream,
	fragile, fleeting.
	It's always in the blue night,
	floating, untouchable.

Frozen Flower


mi-hatenu yume no naka
karenai hana wo ai shite
ite-tsuita omoi wa towa [kanji: eien] ni
kasuka na hana no kaori wa
kiete yuku omoide
jikan wo tomete mo
toozakaru kimi no waraigoe

	In an unfinished dream,
	from loving an unwithering flower,
	my frozen feelings will last eternally.
	The faint scent of the flower
	is a fading memory.
	Even if time stops,
	your laughter still dies away.

subete wa koori-tsuku
asu sae mo
kono mama tozasareta hikari no basho de
te wo nobashi tsumitoru hana wa
kudake-chiru omokage
kinou wo wasurete mo
tsukisasaru GARASU no kakera

	Everything freezes,
	even tomorrow
	is bound like this, in a place of light.
	I reach out my hand and pick a flower,
	smashing it to pieces.
	Although I forget yesterday,
	the glass splinters stick into me.

tokete yuku koori no hana wo
ryoute de tsutsunde
tsumetai manazashi ni
azayaka na hikari no hana wo
mi-hatenu yume no naka
karenai hana wo ai shite
ite-tsuita omoi wa towa ni

	I wrap a melting flower of ice
	in my hands,
	In my cold look
	is a flower of brilliant light.
	From loving the unwithering flower,
	my frozen feelings will last eternally.
