La niña mala

■概要(Overview)
財布を家に忘れた！交通系ICカードの残高は残り僅か。
まいったなぁ。

I forgot my wallet at home! I only have a little money left on my transportation IC card.
I'm in trouble.

■歌詞
ああ　もうろくなことにならないわ
言葉にならない気持ちが
胸の奥を　締め付けてくるんだ
ノートにメモして　壁に貼り付けて
絶対、絶対　Ah 忘れないように Yeah

Oh my goodness
I think I left my wallet at home
I have to walk home
やっちゃったね　わっはっはっは
わっはっはっは・・

夕陽目に染みるぜ　お腹も空いてきた
Ah ポイントカードも財布の中

As I walked, sharpening my five senses

こんな道があったんだ　(La La La ...)
あそこのパン屋おいしそう　(La La La ...)
いいな　いいな　いいな　いいな(Don't think,feel)
五感を研ぎ澄まし　(La La La ...)
第六感に目覚める　(La La La ...)

What a wonderful day it is!
What a terrible song!
Just walk straight ahead.
Don't ever say it's bad luck.
Don't forget the important things.

歩いて帰ろう
健康にいいし
段々ストレスも
忘れてくるから

甘い！甘い！
それは甘いわ！
上り下り繰り返す道
コロッケ食べたくても
あと十円足りないわ！

■Lyrics
Ah, nothing good will come of it
These indescribable feelings
Tighten the depths of my heart
Write them down in a notebook and stick them on the wall
Never, never forget Ah Yeah

Oh my goodness
I think I left my wallet at home
I have to walk home
You did it, hahaha
hahaha...

The setting sun stings my eyes, I'm getting hungry
Ah, my point card is in my wallet

As I walked, sharpening my five senses

There was a road like this (La La La ...)
That bakery over there looks delicious (La La La ...)
Nice, nice, nice, nice, nice (Don't think, feel)
Sharpen your five senses (La La La ...)
Awaken to your sixth sense (La La La ...)

What a wonderful day it is!
What a terrible song!
Just walk straight ahead.
Don't ever say it's bad luck.
Don't forget the important things.

Let's walk home.
It's good for our health.
And it helps us forget about stress.

Sweet! Sweet!
That's so sweet!
The road goes up and down repeatedly.
Even if I want to eat a croquette,
I'm ten yen short!

SENTIMENTAL
CHORUS
Cleaning the house today
I started getting sentimental
On my heart, my tears
Tears weren’t too gentle
With each photograph I picked up to clean got more sentimental
Missing people I have loved along the way

V1
A mother and a father I never knew
A mother and a father who took me in
A brother who was my childhood hero
Talking to him now don’t know where to begin
High school-friend, Pat, my old boyfriend, Lew
Trinkets, knick-knacks, butterfly chimes
Treasures from over the years
Dredged up memories of sunnier times

CHORUS
Cleaning the house today
I started getting sentimental
On my heart, my tears
Tears weren’t too gentle
With each photograph I picked up to clean got more sentimental
Missing people I have loved along the way

V2
And those who’ve passed away, wish I’d told them
How much I loved them when they were here
And I wish I could’ve held my aging mother’s hand
But from a thousand miles away, I wasn’t there
And I wish there was a way to go back in time
‘Cuz Lord knows I’ve never been happy here
But mostly I pray there’s a Heaven
No more sorrow, pain, no more tears, yeah

CHORUS
Cleaning the house today
I started getting sentimental
On my heart, my tears
Tears weren’t too gentle
With each photograph I picked up to clean got more sentimental
Missing people I have loved, loved along the way.

For many years I concentrated on painting, but meanwhile I come back to music more and more. I always like to connect the different mediums, also writing lyrics. I play several instruments with main instrument classical guitar. I'm no singer, but sometimes I like to send a message.
I enjoy your music on SC very much and often hear my likes. It's much better then the mainstream.  Many thanks to you all!
Hope, you enjoy my music too:)
You can buy some albums on Bandcamp.
