Mousho Desu (Heat Wave)
Ai Higuchi
“What’re you doing?”
“I’m taking a bath”
“Well then, send me a picture”
“Don’t be stupid”
“I want to see you”
“Me too”
When I grew up I had a sparkling love life
Secretly kissing in the elevator
Spending the nights
In secret, I couldn’t tell anyone
After we broke up, even if I called him right away
We wouldn’t talk for long, it was a fiery love
I’ve tried calling countless times
after midnight but can’t get through
My chest tightens as I imagine
his iPhone laying there flipped over
Give me back my fan, come drive it over now
AC is way too expensive
I want to get through July
The sweat running down my thighs
This long skirt is way too hot
It’s over 30 degrees, it’s already a heat wave, heat wave
Happy ends are only in dramas, only in dramas
On my occasional vacations I make a boxed lunch
Sweet fried egg yolk and shumai is a must, a must
My occasional work trips are like a reward
If it were just two lovers, definitely the spice of love
You’re getting distant, take up your responsibility as the one that fell in love with me
Once you’ve crossed the line
The erosion of my sells by the minute, by the second, just won’t stop
Give me back my fan, let’s just do it in the car
I know you like it
Showing you everything was a mistake
God knows, ‘cause I’m a bad girl
It can’t be helped I’m not treasured
It can’t be helped
When I think of you I get a burning feeling in my nose
I wonder if you have a heart
Once I open the window it’s Spring, we said we’d go off to a festival
You even pinkie promised
Give me back my fan, You don’t have to give it back
I don’t care if I can't see you, I just want to chat with you now
You can keep on ignoring that I’m trying to contact you
It’s over 30 degrees, it’s already a heat wave, heat wave
I can’t see you in this heat wave, heat wave
Happy ends are only in dramas, only in dramas
