Artist: Matsuura Aya
Title: Love Namida Iro (Love, Color of Tears)
Words: Tsunku
Music: Tsunku

Love The color of tears I read the phone mail from you.
Love I didn't want to hear that you'd broken up with her.

Ah I'd totally forgotten about you.
When I thought that, it was like I was lying to myself.

Ah all of a sudden, these conflicting emotions
are running round and round through my mind, I can't take it.

You easilly tire of everything,
I stick with things to the end,
It wouldn't last.

Love The color of tears, even if I cry and cry I can't stop
Love Everything ended that night, I won't return your phone mail.

If I'm in the midst of kind of loving someone else,
I wonder if somehow I can remain calm? (when your mail arrives)

Ah I always tried to forget your phone number.
I remember them all almost perfectly, I just can't take it!

I can't stop thinking about how much you have grown,
whether you gained or lost weight
or what kind of part time work you're doing...

Love the color of tears, Even now my tears won't stop
Love I want to go back to that night right now,
and innocently fawn over you

Love The color of tears, even if I cry and cry I can't stop
Love Everything ended that night, I won't return your phone mail.

Translator's Notes: The story of the song is, "Aya's friend's ex wants to get with Aya, and she'll have none of it, though she really wants to." Aya is the "stick with it", "stubborn" type but in the line sunao ni amaetai which we translated as "innocently fawn over you", she's being honest with her emotions and saying though she won't actually go to this boy she'd like to throw away her hesitations and just be with him.
