I'm with Melrose, I like the english translation to match up with the japanese as much as possible, including what she sings at certain points.

Obviously it has to make sense in English too, and some things which don;t translate easily I'll fiddle with a bit, but key words and key ideas need to match with when they are sung in the song.

Here's my preferred translation, using masa's as a base, but fiddling and comparing with other translations, and doing certain bits my own way.

Quote:
Each word you casually exchange with me
Is a precious treasure to me
But I myself feel a bit embarrassed about it
So if you knew, you would surely laugh at me

I want to see you, I want to see you
I want to at least hear your voice
I'll call you for no other reason

Just because you are here
My heart becomes so warm
I have only one wish
Yes, in this way, forever,
I want to love you this much, would that be okay?
You have someone precious, I've known for a long time
It's clear from your smile

so painful, so painful
feeling a tightening in my chest
It's true I've had such nights

Just by thinking of you
My heart's existence has meaning
I expect nothing from you
Only, in this way, forever
can I stay as I am, loving you this much, would that be ok?

I want to see you, I want to see you
I want to at least hear your voice
I'll call you for no other reason

Just because you are here
My heart becomes so warm
I have only one wish
Let me keep loving you this much

Just by thinking of you
My heart's existence has meaning
I expect nothing from you
Only, in this way, forever
can I stay as I am, loving you this much, would that be ok?
Let me know what you think!

Here's your translation with some grammar checks ^^
I don't think so; in "is this LOVE?" ayumi is questioning if she loves a certain person, she's really jealous, and a little pissed off...

In "Days" she seems more positive, she's sure she's in love, she doesn't worry too much if that person doesn't love her back kinda.

Thanks for the lyrics. I think they really clear the PV up a lot now.

Quote:

That basically explained the whole PV for me.
