xiaolongbaoThis one was a bit easier than my first one, but I like how I translated it. Click the title for a video of the original song. If you think it sounds familiar, it is because Ray Charles sang this song in English. (Note: I didn't put in the lyrics of the version he sang here. These are translated lyrics of the Japanese lyrics.)
「いとしのエリー」
作詞：桑田佳祐 (Kuwata Keisuke)
作曲：桑田佳祐 (Kuwata Keisuke)
歌手：サザンオールスターズ (The Southern All Stars)
----------------------------
泣くかした事もある冷たくしてもなお
よりそう気持ちがあればいいのさ
おれにしてみりゃ
これで最後lady
エリー my love so sweet
二人がもしもさめて目を見りゃつれなくて
人に言えず思い出だけがつのれば
言葉につまるようじゃ恋は終わりね
笑ってもっと baby むじゃきに on my mind
映ってもっと baby 素敵に in your sight
誘い涙の日が落ちる
§エリー my love so sweet
エリー my love so sweet
あなたがもしもどこかの遠くへ行きうせても
ままでしてくれたことを忘れずにいたいよ
もどかしさもあなたにゃ程よくいいね
エリー my love so sweet
笑ってもっと baby むじゃきに on my mind
映ってもっと baby 素敵に in your sight
みぞれまじりの心なら
§Repeat
笑ってもっと baby むじゃきに on my mind
映ってもっと baby 素敵に in your sight
泣くかせ文句のそのじゃ
§Repeat
エリー my love エリー

Nakukashita koto mo aru tsumetakushite mo nao
Yori sou kimochi ga areba ii no sa
Ore ni shite mirya
Kore de saigo lady
Erii my love so sweet
Futari ga moshi mo samete me wo miryatsurenakute
Hito ni iezu omoi dedake ga tsunoreba
Kotoba ni tsumaru you jay koi wa owari ne
Waratte motto baby mujakini on my mind
Utsutte motto baby suteki ni in your sight
Sasoi namida no hi ga ochiru
§Erii my love so sweet
Erii my love so sweet
Anata ga moshi mo doko kano tooku he ikiusetemo
Mama de shitekureta koto wo wasurezu ni itai yo
Modo kashisa mo anata nya hodo yoku ii ne
Erii my love so sweet
Waratte motto baby mujakini on my mind
Utsutte motto baby suteki ni in your sight
Naku kase monku no sono jya
§Repeat
Erii my love Erii
---------------------------
Even when I was cold towards you in the past, I made you cry
It is fine with me if you long for us to be together
You're the last lady I have played around
Eri my love so sweet
When the two of us look at each other in the eye, the love isn't there
I can't say anything to you nor can I think of anything
I can't find the words to say, and our love is over
Smile more for me baby You're innocently on my mind
Reflect more about me baby I'm shown nicely in your sight
The sunset would make me cry
§Eri my love so sweet
Eri my love so sweet
If you're left and gone far away
I do not want to forget what you have done
This irritating situation seems to be very fitting
Smile more for me baby You're innocently on my mind
Reflect more about me baby I'm shown nicely in your sight
My heart has become mixed with sleet and turned cold
§Repeat
Smile more for me baby You're innocently on my mind
Reflect more about me baby I'm shown nicely in your sight
Let this phrase strike your heart
§Repeat
Eri my love Eri
