Utada Hikaru – Flavor Of Life

Lyrics: Utada Hikaru
Music: Utada Hikaru

*When you say, “Thank you,” to me
It hurts for some reason
Even after our goodbyes the spell isn’t lifted
It’s slightly bittersweet
The flavor of life

In that middle ground between friends and lovers
Unripe fruit dream of the harvest day

Because I can’t take another step forward
It’s way more frustrating than usual, baby

(Repeat*)

Tempting words that just sound sweet
Flavorless conversation
That sort of stuff doesn’t excite me

When things don’t go your way
You can’t just throw your life away

When you ask me, “What’s wrong?”
Oh nothing
After our goodbyes my smile disappears
That’s not like me

The more I wish to believe
The more it hurts for some reason
Instead of saying “I love you,” doesn’t “I like you a lot”
Fit you better?
The flavor of life

Those times I suddenly recall the scent of a person I was about to forget
I want to be more open to the joy of the falling snow’s white color

More than diamonds
I want to have a soft and warm future
I want to spend the time I have left with you

(Repeat*)
