I have to write my lyrics tonight I have no time, have to be finished by sunrise I lived my life without any compromise A lucky guy, even had the times on my side The way I face my life was intense This lucky guy that you know can't fight with this unpredictable today alone What I need is a little bit of your love My head kind of hurts, Don't want to eat Won't go to see a doctor. I just want my coffee I'll eat my veggies, Then I'll be done Look at those doughnuts there, Hand me the bigger one |
Better Left UnsaidYou make that face again always when I don't say a word “I know you have something to say” That's what your eyes are telling me There's a reason for this There are no words that can express Can't seem to find the words that fit the way I feel Something are better left unsaid Swallow my words, hands in my pocket Ah...if tomorrow was the end Am I gonna regret? Don't you think that men who talk too much aren't very cool? I'm kidding, it's just jealousy A joke to fake how I can't speak You're living for today But still tomorrow we will be When there's a chance we'll die next week It makes no sense Words spinning around inside my head Time is not now so I'll just forget Ah...if I were to say it all I'll end up tearing you apart | Ken Yokoyama | Ken・Minami | Ken | | You make that face again always when I don't say a word “I know you have something to say” That's what your eyes are telling me There's a reason for this There are no words that can express Can't seem to find the words that fit the way I feel Something are better left unsaid Swallow my words, hands in my pocket Ah...if tomorrow was the end Am I gonna regret?

Long Hot Summer DayFeel sticky Stupidly too big are the clouds I see the palm trees wave Feel Something good could happen, what a long hot summer day Sunlight is so intense Do something or not do anything at all No need for me to rush Feel Something good could happen, what a long hot summer day No need for any ideals Anything, make it real Take a swim in the damp sky Anything, make it real Make things happen, you and I You and I Maybe I might change the world depending on the things I do today Feel Something good could happen, what a long hot summer day I don't need much anyway | Ken Yokoyama | Ken・Minami | Ken | | Feel sticky Stupidly too big are the clouds I see the palm trees wave Feel Something good could happen, what a long hot summer day Sunlight is so intense Do something or not do anything at all No need for me to rush Feel Something good could happen, what a long hot summer day No need for any ideals Anything, make it real Take a swim in the damp sky Anything, make it real Make things happen, you and I You and I Maybe I might change the world depending on the things I do today Feel Something good could happen, what a long hot summer day I don't need much anyway |
