Lyrics:

[日本語]

[English]

私今日は女だから 今日は女だから

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

きっと抱きしめてもらえないでしょう

Surely, I won't be hugged.

今日は女だから 今日は女だから

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

ずっと溢れているでしょう

I'll be overflowing all the same.

確かめなくても

Even without confirming.

湿ってく 揺らいでく

Getting wet, trembling.

沈みたいの

I want to sink.

キスだけでいけそうなの

It feels like I can go with just a kiss.

傷だらけになるとしても

Even if I end up full of scars.

キスだけでここにきたの

I came here just with a kiss.

やるせないね やる気ないね？

It's so frustrating, don't you feel like giving up?

お前今日は女だから 今日は女だから

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

ちょっと 忍ばせているでしょう

I'm just sneaking around, aren't I?

お前今日も女だから 今日も女だから

Today, I'm a woman again, because today I'm a woman.

そっと 触れていたい

I want to touch you softly.

待ち構えていても

Even if you’re waiting for me.

歪んでく 乾いてく

Distorting, drying up.

急がなくちゃ

I need to hurry.

キスだけでいけそうなの？

Can I make it with just a kiss?

傷つけてもかまわないの？

Would it be okay to hurt you?

キスだけでここにきたの？

Did I come here just with a kiss?

やるせないね 眠れないね

It's so frustrating, I can't sleep.

背中合わせの夜

A night with our backs turned.

心臓泣かせの夜

A night that makes the heart cry.

重なり合いたい気持ちをまたいで

Crossing over the feelings that want to hold each other.

抱きしめて

Hold me tight.

キスだけで

Just with a kiss.

私今日は女だから お前今日は女だから

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

いつも女だから いつも女だから

I'm always a woman, because I'm always a woman.

今日も2人だから

Today, the both of us are here.

• ば form (conditional ba-form)

  ➔ The ba-form expresses a conditional "if" statement, indicating what happens if a condition is met.

  ➔ In "やるせないね", the phrase conveys a feeling or state, often used with adjectives, but in this context, it can imply a conditional emotional state.

• ても form (te-form of the conditional)

  ➔ The ても form combines て with も to mean "even if" or "regardless of".

  ➔ In "傷つけてもかまわないの？" (*even if I hurt you, is it okay?*), "ても" expresses the conditional "even if".

• だけで (dake de)

  ➔ Dake de means "just by" or "only with," indicating that something is achieved or sufficient with just that element.

  ➔ In "キスだけでいけそうなの" (*it seems I can go just with a kiss*), "だけで" emphasizes that a kiss alone might be enough.

• 今日は (kyou wa)
