then I luv U Lyrics English Translation by Mononoke
MONONOKE describes seeing someone sleeping like a battery that’s run out of charge. The songwriter mentions a morning sun spilling through tiny gaps in curtains. Even days of throwing pillows at each other become part of this shared journey.
Kandenchi ga kireta you ni kimi wa tonari de fukaku nemutteruLike a battery that’s run out of charge, you’re sleeping deeply right beside me.
Shitagi sugata wa choppiri dogimagi shitetariSeeing you just in your underwear makes me feel a little flustered.
Kaaten no sukima kara waThrough the tiny gap in the curtains,
Asahi ga ima ka to machiwabite afurete iruthe morning sun is spilling in, tired of waiting for the day to start.
Kyou wa nichiyoubiToday is Sunday.
Doko ka kuridasetara ii naI hope we can head out somewhere together.
Hora hayaku okite yoCome on, it’s time to wake up!
Koko de mainichi ande iru seikatsu waThe life we’re weaving together here every day…
Kimi to onaji taion o wakachiau tame nan daIt’s all so I can share the same warmth as you.
Imi mo naku makura o nageauWe throw pillows at each other for no reason at all.
Sonna hibi mo annai waruku wa nai you niEven days like those aren’t so bad, I think.
Nan nen tatte mo boku wa kimi no ibasho de aritaiNo matter how many years pass, I want to be the place where you belong.
Because i live you mou ichidoBecause I love you, let me say it once more.
Fukan de kangaeteLooking at the bigger picture,
Fuan na baiasu omoku kakaeta mamawhile still carrying the weight of my anxious doubts,
Kimi ni chikaeru kanaI wonder if I’m ready to make a vow to you?
Soba de aenai toki ga kiteWhen the time comes that we can’t be by each other’s side,
Toki ni koerarenu kabe mo aru darouthere’ll surely be walls we just can’t climb.
Soko de ai wa yuugen to shiruThat’s when we’ll realize that love has its limits.
Sono hi o mo mada tomenai dePlease don’t let our story end, even on a day like that.
Tsutsumarete ande iru seikatsu waThis life we’ve woven, wrapped in each other’s arms,
Kimi to onaji taion o wakachiau dake janaiisn’t just about sharing the same warmth.
Donna toki mo kokoro o koukanko dekiru you niIt’s so we can exchange our hearts no matter what happens.
Atarashii kaze ga fuku karaSince a new breeze is starting to blow,
Nan nen tatte mo sonna seikatsu o ayunde ikuno matter how many years pass, we’ll keep living our lives this way.
