▶︎ Kuchihodo ni mo nai KISS

口ほどにもないKISS

"Overhyped kiss"

何度も何度もきっと歯磨きしたのね

nandomo nandomo kitto hamigaki shita none

you must've brushed your teeth so many times

そうあなたの表情 見てたらバレバレよ

sou anata no hyoujou mitetara barebare yo

yeah, it's obvious just from the look on your face

笑うその度に真っ白な歯とミントの風が吹く

warau sono tabi ni masshiro na ha to minto no kaze ga fuku

every time you laugh, a minty breeze blows from your pearly white teeth

いつもの百倍ずっと喋り続けてる

itsumo no hyakubai zutto shaberitsuzuketeru

you're a hundred times more chatty than usual

どれだけ私のことを 好きかってプレゼン

doredake watashi no koto wo sukikatte PUREZEN

doing a whole presentation about how much you like me

青い空の下 オープンカフェで

aoi sora no shita OOPUN KAFE de

even though we're at an outdoor café, under the blue sky

みんながみているのに

minna ga miteiru no ni

where everyone can see

ねえ一瞬でいいから目を閉じてなんて

nee isshun de ii kara me wo tojite nante

hey, can you close your eyes for just a moment

大胆なこと囁きながらマジで 接近中

daitan na koto tsubuyakinagara maji de sekkinchuu

seriously, what a bold thing to whisper, as you get closer

だけど

dakedo

but,

口ほどにもない(笑)

kuchihodo ni mo nai (warai)

it wasn't what it was cracked up to be (lol)

口ほどにもない

kuchihodo ni mo nai

not what it was cracked up to be

そう僕のキスは 世界一だなんてね

sou boku no KISU wa sekaiichi da nante ne

after claiming "my kiss is the best in the world"

口ほどにもない(笑)

kuchihodo ni mo nai (warai)

it wasn't what it was cracked up to be (lol)

口ほどにもない

kuchihodo ni mo nai

not what it was cracked up to be

そうどんなキスか 期待していたのに

sou donna KISU ka kitai shiteita no ni

and i was even looking forward to what kind of kiss it might be

Oh oh oh せめてるわけじゃないけど

Oh oh oh semeteru wake janai kedo

Oh oh oh, i don't mean to criticize, but

Oh oh oh ちょっとだけ拍子抜け

Oh oh oh chotto dake hyoushinuke

Oh oh oh, it was just a bit anticlimactic

自信過剰か ブラフだったんでしょうね

jishin kajou ka BURAFU dattan deshou ne

i guess you were overconfident, or maybe bluffing

今までしたことのない あっと驚くような 特別な何かあるわけじゃなく

ima made shita koto no nai atto odoroku you na tokubetsu na nanika aru wake janaku

it's not like there was anything special or new about it that could really wow me

あまりに普通だった

amari ni futsuu datta

it was just so unremarkable

まぁそうはいったって経験少ないし

maa sou wa ittatte keiken sukunai shi

well, still, it's true that i'm inexperienced

どんなものかわかってないし 確信ない

donna mono ka wakattenaishi kakushin nai

i don't know what it's supposed to be like, so i can't be sure

だって

datte

and like,

求められたら(OK)

motomeraretara (OK)

because you wanted me (it seemed OK)

求められたら

motomeraretara

because you wanted me

本当の愛だと勘違いしたくなる

hontou no ai da to kanchigai shitakunaru

it made me want to convince myself it was true love

求められたら(OK)

motomeraretara (OK)

because you wanted me (it seemed OK)

求められたら

motomeraretara

because you wanted me

試してみようかと 血迷ってしまっただけ

tameshite miyou ka to chimayotte shimatta dake

i just got all caught up in it and thought, i might as well give it a try

Oh oh oh ガッカリなんて言えない

Oh oh oh gakkari nante ienai

Oh oh oh, i can't just say it was a letdown

Oh oh oh これからが楽しみかも

Oh oh oh korekara ga tanoshimi kamo

Oh oh oh, maybe the good part is coming up next

いつの日にか思い出せる

itsunohinika omoidaseru

one day i'll be able to look back on this

あなたのキスは大したことない

anata no KISU wa taishita koto nai

your kiss was nothing to write home about

でも何故だろ忘れられない

demo naze daro wasurerarenai

but, i wonder why, i can't quite forget it

口ほどにもない(笑)

kuchihodo ni mo nai (warai)

it wasn't what it was cracked up to be (lol)

口ほどにもない

kuchihodo ni mo nai

not what it was cracked up to be

そう僕のキスは 世界一だなんてね

sou boku no KISU wa sekaiichi da nante ne

after claiming "my kiss is the best in the world"

口ほどにもない(笑)

kuchihodo ni mo nai (warai)

it wasn't what it was cracked up to be (lol)

口ほどにもない

kuchihodo ni mo nai

not what it was cracked up to be

そうどんなキスか 期待していたのに

sou donna KISU ka kitai shiteita no ni

and i was even looking forward to what kind of kiss it might be

Oh oh oh せめてるわけじゃないけど

Oh oh oh semeteru wake janai kedo

Oh oh oh, i don't mean to criticize, but

Oh oh oh ちょっとだけ拍子抜け

Oh oh oh chotto dake hyoushinuke

Oh oh oh, it was just a bit anticlimactic
