CHE.R.RY (english version)

Preliminary(rough draft) English version of another YUI song.
This time, an uncharacteristically girlish, cutesy love song by YUI. I usually don't like songs in this vein, but YUI nailed it with this one.
I'm still working on getting everything to match the meter perfectly, but it probably won't change much ultimately, and it's at least singable as it is. Oh, not singable by me though, because it's way out of my range. But I present you with the lyrics anyway.

CHE.R.RY (English version)

Tiny phones shivers in my palm
Somehow incites just a little bit of bravery
I quickly tire of emoticons
But if it's you, they can still get a smile from me

My friends all say that I should play hard to get
I shouldn't be so quick to answer your texts
But answering straight off is all I can do
Because I love you
Ah ah ah ah

I fell head over heels for you
Come on boy, haven't you realized yet?
I whisper prayers to the stars in the sky
Cherry
Let these fingers convey a message that'll reach you, baby

Cherry blossoms open to full bloom
I can see it all from here where I'm standing
Wish that somehow I could could leave this room
For ten seconds just see the world you see

But really I'd prefer just to hear my phone ring
Even one line is fine, really, anything
Even if it's all lies, I'll pretend it's true
Because I love you
Ah ah ah ah

I fell head over heels for you
Come on boy, haven't you realized yet?
I whisper prayers to the stars in the sky
Cherry
Let these fingers convey a message that'll reach you, baby

The fruits on the trees that start out sour
Can always grow sweet
I hope my words can
Harness that power
Ah ah ah ah

My heart twists and turns for you
Just how love always feels when it begins
But I know I will wait like this for you always
Spring is offering to send you this message on its cold winds, baby

I fell head over heels for you
Come on boy, haven't you realized yet?
I whisper prayers to the stars in the sky
Cherry
Let these fingers convey a message that'll reach you, baby

Blue Wind (Work in Progress)

More of my crappy singing. Once again, I know I cannot carry a tune. This is not to showcase my singing talents, it is to showcase the lyrics. Anyway... it's acapella this time, and something that is as of yet unfinished. Video explains the rest... enjoy?




[edit] Lyrics:

Why are you suddenly talking like this to me I wonder?
Actually you're not saying a thing

Unlike you hope is all I have left to my name now
I can't figure how to say what I believe

You reach out hand like you want to comfort me even now...
Thank you my friend

You always perplexed everyone
I myself didn't get any of your jokes then
You, you were so kind at heart
and that I understood better than anyone

I was taught that inventors are the greats of our time
Working day and night to improve the world

But somehow I've come to think the common people greater still
Those of us who strive to live long, happy lives

And so as for me
I can't just stand in the wind crying like this
I must keep going

You, I won't forget what you said
That God's the reason you and I found each other
You made me start smiling about it
Motto ki no kitta koto itte yo

Okay, lyrics:

I set out in my old sneakers
In a wave of faces struggling against the crowd
Out on my own
Can I come back?
I keep wondering if I did the right thing

Colors blurring in the beautiful streetsides
I can hardly see a thing on my way home
Crazy passion, Easy action
I just wanted you to come take it all from me

My tears are a merry-go-round
And I'm losing myself to the shining
I'm just a baby, oh mind
Goodbye to this merry-go-round
I gave all my love all for nothing 'cause
This feeling's the merry-go-round

I find myself at an intersection
No matter how hard I wish,
I know that there's no turning back
You were so kind
Can I come back?
Though I'd surely never forgive myself then

The signal's green so I keep on going
Let my feet carry me ever forward now
What can I do?
Is this all?
I just wanted you to come and follow me

My tears are a merry-go-round
And I'm losing myself to the shining
I'm just a baby, oh mind
Goodbye to this merry-go-round
I gave all my love all for nothing 'cause
This feeling's the merry-go-round

My tears are a merry-go-round
My despair won't stop
I am breaking
I'm just a baby, oh mind
Goodbye is a merry-go-round
Please don't dissappear
That's my only wish
And this feeling's a merry-go-round
