Yokan (Presentiment) Maison Ikkoku Insert Song Singable Lyrics Version 1 Wei-Hwa Huang 2/23/95 ----------------------------------- Revision Notes: 0: original version 1: Annotated section and credits added. ------------------------------- Singer: Shimamoto Sumi Lyricist: Satou Arisu Composer: Kosaka Akiko Arranger: Kobayashi Shingo Translation: Wei-Hwa Huang Thanks to: Suzuki Daisuke, Robert J. Carragher ------------------------------------------------------------ Even when I pass the time alone, It's almost like I feel that you are somewhere close to home. Oh, I only wish that you could sometimes feel it too, the strange sensation that I do. When I dry your shirts as white as snow, It hurts me but I can't take my eyes off, although I know Oh, the gentle wind may blow more softer than the love in a day of this little girl. For when we walked that day, you gave security, I knew that I could feel a sunny spot inside your chest. But there's no need to rush; because I know that you'll fall in love with me. For that's my feeling of presentiment. (4 bars) Why is it, with so much words of love, that I don't even hear a single one of them from you? Oh, I know that you once said that you're still hesitant, but it sure makes me lonely too. Understand that I'm not pledging much, I'm sure that I can love you without promising as such; Oh, there's no need to be meek, if you're too shy to speak, Just feelings in your eyes I seek. For now it's clear to me; you're standing in a scene, that's slowly augmenting the sunny spot inside your chest. I want to laugh with you; I want to share all your loves and fears and dreams. For that's my feeling of presentiment. (8 bars) For when we walked that day, you gave security, I knew that I could feel a sunny spot inside your chest. Yet there's no need to rush; because I know that you'll fall in love with me. For that's my feeling of presentiment. ------------------------------------------------------------ Even when I pass the time alone, HITO--RI SU--GO--SHI--TE--TE MO It's almost like I feel that you are somewhere close to home.
