Love song

Quote:

I’m not confident of living
A life without love

I don’t want to imagine
A life without dreams

I can’t picture
A life without music

Life is boring if you don’t have anything
That you can’t compromise on
It would be meaningless
Wouldn’t it?

Do you have anything you want to protect?
Are you afraid you can’t protect it to the end?

You’re damaged and tattered
But that’s why you know strength

Do you have someone dear to you?
Can you cherish that person?
Hold that person gently but tightly
Before you lose him or her

It seems things can go wrong easily
Even so, life is boring if you don’t have anything
That you can’t compromise on
It would be meaningless

I don’t believe everything will always go right
Even so, life is boring if you don’t have anything
That you can’t compromise on
It would be meaningless

There are definitely days
Where I honestly just feel like
Giving up
Because that’s easier

Have you lost anything?
Is it something you left behind somewhere?
Do you regret doing so?
Do you wish you could go back and reclaim it?

Do you have a wish?
Is that wish within reach?
Can you become honest?
Why won’t the tears stop?

I’m not confident of living
A life without love

I don’t want to imagine
A life without dreams

I can’t picture
A life without music

Life is boring if you don’t have anything
That you can’t compromise on
It would be meaningless
Wouldn’t it?

I REALLY love these lyrics...it makes me cry reading them.

I love how unexpected this song is! Everyone thought it'd be a cheesy ballad with sappy lyrics but it's so powerful.
Thank you for translating.

^ Totally agree with this. I am pleasantly surprised!!!

<--- oh and one of her most beautiful and sexy photos ever from this year

Thank you tenshi!!

A very powerful lyrics ! thanks for your translation !

So beautiful... I had to give in. I don't know why I bother telling myself I can wait until my CD comes... lol. After reading these and hearing all the praise, I had to listen to it too. :luv2

What an amazing year for Ayu. She's worked so hard and it shows. Stellar time for her right now and she surely deserves tons of success from this new album. :love

Thank you for posting these!! :)

Great lyrics definitely... :heart

"I can’t picture
A life without songs" is a better and an exact translation for me for that part! Thank you =D

Woow, that lyrics are so unexpected, this is not an easy love song with only tears or laugh, but it has strenght and a great meaning

powerful lyrics indeed :yes

I feel so depressed after reading them..they are so true and real. Ayu has the best ai no uta for me already. makes me anticipate the song even more now since I will wait for my album :)

Typical Ayu lyrics.
I'm glad it's not a common romantic love song.
I love lyrics like this more than romantic lyric. :D

Great lyrics ^^
