[English]

I'm a woman today, because I'm a woman today

I'm sure you won't hold me tight

Because I'm a woman today, because I'm a woman today

It's overflowing endlessly

Even without confirming

Growing damp, wavering

I want to sink

It feels like I could get there with just a kiss

Even if it leaves me covered in scars

I came here with just a kiss

It's unbearable, don't you feel like it?

You're a woman today, because you're a woman today

You're hiding it a little, aren't you?

You're still a woman today, still a woman today

I want to gently touch you

Even if I lie in wait

Distorting, drying up

I have to hurry

Does it feel like you could get there with just a kiss?

Do you not mind being hurt?

Did you come here with just a kiss?

It's unbearable, I can't sleep

A night back to back

A night that makes my heart cry

Straddling the feeling of wanting to overlap

Hold me tight

With just a kiss

I'm a woman today, you're a woman today

Always a woman, always a woman

Because it's the two of us today too

...

[Japanese]

私今日は女だから 今日は女だから

きっと抱きしめてもらえないでしょう

今日は女だから 今日は女だから

ずっと溢れているでしょう

確かめなくても

湿ってく 揺らいでく

沈みたいの

キスだけでいけそうなの

傷だらけになるとしても

キスだけでここにきたの

やるせないね やる気ないね？

お前今日は女だから 今日は女だから

ちょっと 忍ばせているでしょう

お前今日も女だから 今日も女だから

そっと 触れていたい

待ち構えていても

歪んでく 乾いてく

急がなくちゃ

キスだけでいけそうなの？

傷つけてもかまわないの？

キスだけでここにきたの？

やるせないね 眠れないね

背中合わせの夜

心臓泣かせの夜

重なり合いたい気持ちをまたいで

抱きしめて

キスだけで

私今日は女だから お前今日は女だから

いつも女だから いつも女だから

今日も2人だから
