First Love

January 22, 2007 at 3:14 pm (Music)

I recently got a copy of Utada Hikaru’s song, “First Love” and it struck a chord in my otherwise, black as coal, hard as a diamond, heart. The melody’s simple and haunting and I may not understand every single line sung but after I googled the English translation, I fell in love with it all the more.

Officially, Utada Hikaru’s “First Love” is now my emo-song. I can actually sing along with most of it, even though its Japanese. @.@

Saigo no kisu wa
Tabako no flavor ga shita
Nigakute setsunai kaori

Ashita no imagoro niwa
Anata wa doki ni irun darou
Dare wo omotterun darou

You are always gonna be my love
Itsuka dareka to mata koi ni ochitemo
I’ll remember to love
You taught me how
You are always gonna be the one
Ima wa mada kanashii love song
Atarashii uta utaeru made

Tachidomaru jikan ga
Ugokidasou to shiteru
Wasuretakunai koto bakari

Ashita no imagoro niwa
Watashi wa kitto naiteru
Anata wo omotterun darou

You will always be inside my heart
Itsumo anata dake no basho ga aru kara
I hope that I have a place in your heart too
Now and forever you are still the one
Ima wa mada kanashii love song
Atarashii uta utaeru made

You are always gonna be my love
Itsuka dareka to mata koi ni ochitemo
I’ll remember to love
You taught me how
You are always gonna be the one
Mada kanashii love song
Now and forever
