Ah, aqua-colored rain
Embracing my shoulders, surrounding me
Continue to fall…
Ahh, let it crumble
And flow away without leaving a trace
The shape of love

You are such a kind person
It was my sin to have pretended not to see
A moment’s whim, gone too far
Forget, forget, that we had loved

Ah, aqua-colored rain
Embracing my shoulders, surrounding me
Continuing to fall…
Ah, let it be forgotten
Without leaving any trace, flowing away
The shape of love

Words of blame, I’ve honestly spoken them
In those nostalgic days, while you just stood and smiled
You were hurt, a lonely look in your eyes
Can’t return, can’t return to how we were that day

Ah, aqua-colored rain
Embracing my shoulders, surrounding me
Continue to fall…
Ahh, let it crumble
And flow away without leaving a trace
The shape of love

What’s with that pathetic face? Don’t talk about other girls
Your gentleness is still not enough
Don’t come to look for me only when you feel sorrow or pain
I am not your Mama

Back-facing me, you say you’re tired and fall asleep
Enough with your selfish habits
This is not a joke Oh

Ai~ “I love you”
You’re just repeating it mindlessly
Ai~ “You don’t love me enough”
Don’t be a fool, you’re too selfish
Actually, men are mostly
Spoilt and pathetic
Always, men mostly
Think only of themselves

Don’t feel proud, like you have won just because you said “I love you” first
That is not a measure of love

Without telling me where you were, you return only in the morning
I’ve had enough of your fickle habits
This is not a joke Oh

Ai~ “I love you”
You’re just repeating it mindlessly
Ai~ “You don’t love me enough”
Don’t be a fool, you’re too selfish
Actually, men are mostly
Spoilt and pathetic
Always, men mostly
Think only of themselves

I know that there’s no answer to the best way to love, but
What will you do for me?
Just what should I do? Oh

Ai~ “I love you”
You’re just repeating it mindlessly
Ai~ “You don’t love me enough”
Don’t be a fool, you’re too selfish
Actually, men are mostly
Spoilt and pathetic
Always, men mostly
Think only of themselves

Tell All – ayumi hamasaki

with adaptations from ayu’s written English lyric.

——

The depth of the darkness which you’re embracing
The strength of the wind that is grazing your cheeks

There are surely lots of things
Which nobody but you will know, but

If I am hesitant, nothing will begin
And if nothing begins, I won’t know the pain of losing you

The future screams at me, “it’s not the time to give up”
In order to love you, I’ve chosen this fight

You, welcoming beautiful mornings
You, going through nights without any fear

Rather than show off your fighting spirit
I want you to say that you are happy

If we feel only regret, we will never forgive the past, yeah
And if we can’t forgive the past, we won’t be able to smile even now

The future screams at me,”now’s the time to press forward”
In order to love you, I’ve chosen this fight

Lift your fists up high, yeah
And raise your voice, yeah
Then look up and start running without looking back
There’s nothing to be afraid of

If I am hesitant, yeah, nothing will begin
And if nothing begins, I won’t know the pain of losing you

The future screams at me, “it’s not the time to give up”
In order to love you, I’ve chosen this fight

If we feel only regret, we will never forgive the past, yeah
And if we can’t forgive the past, we won’t be able to smile even now

The future screams at me, yeah, “now’s the time to press forward”
In order to love you, I’ve chosen this fight

yeah yeah
wow wow

I will become the reason you breathe
