[TOKIO][Lyrics] Love Love Manhattan
Somehow, we finished subbing episodes 1 and 2 of "Manhattan Love Story" so we decided to translate the ending theme song as well. Seriously, this song is absolutely amazing, especially considering the fact that Kudo Kankuro (who I like to compare to Wes Anderson) wrote the lyrics. When you guys watch Manhattan Love Story, you'll find that this song is perfect for the drama.

roler helped me smooth out stuff/correct things AND she's my partner in crime with Manhattan Love Story so go and buy her extra icons or something right now!!!!!! hitori_asobi helped me with not sounding engrish, props!!

ラブラブ・マンハッタン
Love Love Manhattan
Words: Kudo Kankuro
Music: Tomisawa Taku


  大学の図書館で君に逢う夢を見た
daigaku no toshokan de kimi ni au yume wo mita
I dreamt that I chanced upon you in the college library
大学なんか行ったこともないのに
daigaku nanka itta koto mo nai no ni
although I've never been to college

君はマンハッタンの夜景よりもキレイだった
kimi wa manhattan no yakei yori mo kirei datta
You were prettier than the Manhattan skyline at night
マンハッタンなんか行ったこともないのに
manhattan nanka itta koto mo nai no ni
Although I've never been to Manhattan

恋はいつでも　現実離れ
koi wa itsudemo genjitsu banare
Love is always out of touch with reality
だから今夜も　妄想ばかり
dakara konya mo mousou bakari
That's why tonight I'm full of nothing but pipe dreams again

ラブラブ・マンハッタン・WOWWOW・マンハッタン・ラブラブ
rabu rabu manhattan WOWWOW manhattan rabu rabu
Love Love Manhattan Whoa Whoa Manhattan Love Love
今すぐ飛んでって抱きしめたいけど
ima sugu tondette dakishimetai kedo
I want to bolt out and hold you this instant but
ラブラブ・マンハッタン・WOWWOW・マンハッタン・ラブラブ
rabu rabu manhattan WOWWOW manhattan rabu rabu
Love Love Manhattan Whoa Whoa Manhattan Love Love
力の加減が分からない(飛べないし)
chikara no kagen ga wakarani (tobenai shi)
I don't know how far my energy will take me (plus, I'm not lightning)

僕に出来ることなんか
boku ni dekiru koto nanka
All I can do
いつもの喫茶店で
itsumo no kissaten de
Is just drink coffee
コーヒー飲みながら　君を待ってるだけ
koohii nominagara kimi wo matteru dake
While waiting for you at the usual coffee shop


「あ〜あ、俺はダメだ
"Aa, ore wa dame da
"Ah, it's no use
君の前だと　いっぱいいっぱいんなっちゃって
kimi no mae da to ippai ippain nacchatte
Whenever I'm with you I feel like I'm going to burst
ぜんぜんダメなんだよ
zenzen dame nanda yo
It's no use at all
ああ最悪、髪型が決まらないよお!」
aa saiaku, kamigata ga kimaranai yoo!"
Ah, this sucks, I can't decide on a hairstyle!!"
 

君のこと考えてたら歌が一曲出来たよ
kimi no koto kangaetetara uta ga ikkyoku dekita yo
Thinking of you, I wrote a song
君に聞かせるつもりは毛頭ないけど
kimi ni kakaseru tsumori wa moutou nai kedo
Although I have no intention of letting you listen to it
 

恋はいつでも　近所迷惑
koi wa itsudemo kinjo meiwaku
Love is always a neighborhood nuisance
だから今夜も　ワンマンショーで
dakara konya mo wan man shoo de
That's why again tonight I'm a one-man show

ラブラブ・マンハッタン・WOWWOW・マンハッタン・ラブラブ
rabu rabu manhattan WOWWOW manhattan rabu rabu
Love Love Manhattan Whoa Whoa Manhattan Love Love
今すぐタクシー飛ばしたいけど
ima sugu takushii tobashitai kedo
I want to fly out by taxi this instant but
ラブラブ・マンハッタン・WOWWOW・マンハッタン・ラブラブ
rabu rabu manhattan WOWWOW manhattan rabu rabu
Love Love Manhattan Whoa Whoa Manhattan Love Love
君の番地が分からない(お金ないし)
kimi no banchi ga wakaranai (okane nai shi)
I don't know where you live (plus, I have no cash)

「ごめんね
"gomen ne
Sorry,
君より好きな人　見つけちゃったんだ
kimi yori suki na hito mitsukechattanda
I've found someone I like better
ビックリした?　するわけないか
bikkuri shita? suru wake nai ka
Are you shocked? Of course not
僕たちまだ、喋ったこともないんだもんね」
boku-tachi mada, shabetta koto mo nain damon ne"
because we still haven't spoken to each other"
 

ラブラブ・マンハッタン・WOWWOW・マンハッタン・ラブラブ
rabu rabu manhattan WOWWOW manhattan rabu rabu
Love Love Manhattan Whoa Whoa Manhattan Love Love
今すぐ会って謝りたいけど
ima sugu atte ayamaritai kedo
I want to find you and apologize this instant but
ラブラブ・マンハッタン・WOWWOW・マンハッタン・ラブラブ
rabu rabu manhattan WOWWOW manhattan rabu rabu
Love Love Manhattan Whoa Whoa Manhattan Love Love
君は僕のこと知らない(ごめんなさい)
kimi wa boku no koto shiranai (gomen nasai)
You don't know who I am (Sorry)

僕に出来ることなんか
boku ni dekiru koto nanka
All I can do
君を遠巻きに見て
kimi wo toomaki ni mite
is gaze at you from a distance
申し訳ないって勝手に思うだけ
moushi wake nai tte katte ni omou dake
And apologize in my thoughts only 
昨日いきなり君から話しかけられた
kinou ikinari kimi kara hanashi kakerareta
Yesterday, you talked to me out of the blue
今度は夢じゃなかったけど…
kondo yume janakatta kedo...
Although this time it wasn't a dream...
