Cookie’s Story

Lyrics and sung by: Hisakawa Aya

Translated by: Tetris no Miko (May ’03)

*Incidentally, Hirotani Junko arranged the chorus and is one of the backup vocalists in this song…and she also does backups for Ayu!! Wow, pretty nifty, huh…

Dare mo inai Midnight kitchen
Reizouko no supotto raito
Pajama no sode ude makuri shitara
Mii mo okitekuru

Aenai koto de no Trouble
Nijuuyojikan suki na no ni
Hitorijime wa wagamama da yo ne
Dakedo kakaekirenai

Oroshita juwaki no koodo ga nejireta
Kyoukasho ni nai no yo "gomen" no houteishiki wa

Yakeru kukkii kongari to ne kitsune iro
Yakimochi mo hodo yokereba kawaii no ni
Dekitate omoi hayaku anata ni todoke

Teeburu no ue wa Stage
Gensen shinsa kuguri nuke
Erabi nuita tsubu zoroi tachi ga tsun to osumashi shiteru

Teshio ni kakete
Sodateta musume no oyome-iri dakara ne
Shiage wa totteoki ribon

Kogeta kukkii
Nakibesogao fukurettsura
Ijippari watashi ni hora niteiru yo

Hotto miruku nomeba torokete shimau mabuta

Omoi o komete "gomen" no hako ni Sweet Kiss

No one is here in the midnight kitchen
The refrigerator’s spotlight shines.
I roll up the sleeves of my pajamas
And Mii (the cat) wakes up.

We had a little trouble because we couldn’t meet.
Even though I like a round-the-clock schedule.
I guess it’s selfish to want to keep you all to myself
But I just can’t help it.

The telephone cord is all twisted.
I wish the equation for "I’m sorry" were in a textbook.

I bake the cookies until they’re a crisp, light brown.
If only my jealousy were baked the same way, it might be sweet.
I want to hurry and show you my freshly baked feelings.

The table stop is a stage.
I do some careful selections…
The various sprinkles I chose are all laid out neatly.

I place them on a saucer.
Because she’s my daughter, about to be married,
I finish it off with a nice ribbon.

The cookies are burnt.
They’re shaped like swollen, crying faces
Look, their stubborn expressions look just like me.

After drinking warm milk, my eyelids droop.

Gathering my love, I lean over the "I’m sorry" box and give it a sweet kiss.
