Kimura Kaela Lyrics: Kidoairaku plus Ai (喜怒哀楽 plus 愛; Wearing My Emotions plus Love on My Sleeves)

Hug me back, take all the joy, sorrow, anger, and turn them into love I think about you more than anybody or anything else, all the time

This translation is available for everyone to view on my Ko-fi page!

I love seeing Kaela play the guitar in this performance of “KEKKO”! she adapts well to different styles, but rock suits her best in my opinion :)

You act like it’s no, no, it’s nothing In my eyes there’s no, no, there’s nothing The light shines in– you are the sun that shines on me

Kimura Kaela Lyrics: KEKKO (FINE)

ENGLISH

Make your move before things cool down I’m putting on a brave face, as usual Basking in the spotlight, you’re a one-man show Doin’ just fine ‘cause you’re so conceited I’m putting on a brave face, as usual Basking in the spotlight, you’re a one-man show Doin’ just fine ‘cause you’re so conceited

Tension rising We’re so close to the sun The beat of our hearts burns brilliantly Questions and answers on loop Watch me get through this My hopes and dreams are...

Make your move before things cool down I’m putting on a brave face, as usual Basking in the spotlight, you’re a one-man show Doin’ just fine ‘cause you’re so conceited Make your move before things cool down I’m putting on a brave face, as usual Basking in the spotlight, you’re a one-man show Doin’ just fine ‘cause you’re so conceited

I can’t breathe Can’t snap outta my infatuation for you All these methodologies of expressing yourself are so narrow Track down a reaction A mundane one? I don’t need it

Make your move before things cool down I’m putting on a brave face, as usual Basking in the spotlight, you’re a one-man show Doin’ just fine ‘cause you’re so conceited Resume things before I vanish on you I’m already sick and tired of this, as usual Rapid growth under pressure It's fine, don’t worry ‘bout me

Kimura Kaela Lyrics: Chocolate (チョコレート)

English translation and romanization below the cut.

ENGLISH

My gloomy mood still hasn’t lifted Your face came to mind And brought tears to my eyes I wonder if anything good Will happen to me today or tomorrow I must’ve wished for it A million times already

I know It was mean of me to act that way I didn’t mean a single word I said It’s not your fault To be honest, I need to hide how weak I am It leaped out at you I’m so hopeless

I worry anxiously And complain next to you You have this mysterious power about you Like chocolate that melts sweetly in your mouth

Don’t you dare ever lose that smile I don’t dare lose this moment we’re having right now These feelings are more than I can express To be honest, when you’re around The strength I need leaps out I’m so hopeless

A world only you and I can see The kindness you show me It fills in the empty gaps Sometimes it’s heartbreaking for you too, isn’t it? But even now, you hold me in your arms And you’ll hold me some more today, too

Thanks, and I’m sorry Thanks, and I’m sorry

Kimura Kaela Lyrics: Utau La La (うたうらら; Sing La La)

English translation and romanization below the cut.

ENGLISH

My chest hurts ‘cause I’m in love I looked up at the blue sky And a tear rolled down

It’s ‘cause I miss you. I grip my cell phone Still stagnant at heart I can’t tell you. I feel so helpless

I’m not able to touch your hands Come be blown gently over here next to me These growing feelings won’t go away A melody of ooh la la love

When will I be able to say it out loud? I’ve been able to tell you countless times in my dreams

I wanna tell you. I wanna make it tangible Still wanna keep my hopes up at heart I can’t stop itーthere’s nothing I can do about it, is there?

I’m so used to hearing your voice You’re blown gently over to me and kiss me on the ear These growing feelings won’t die Your ooh la la every day

I’m not able to touch your hands Come be blown gently over here next to me These growing feelings won’t go away A melody of ooh la la love

I’m so used to hearing your voice You’re blown gently over to me and kiss me on the ear These growing feelings won’t die Your ooh la la every day A melody of ooh la la love

That kinda song ooh la la
