Mimosa Single Cover

Lyrics: Ayumi Hamasaki

Composition: Kunio Tago

Arrangement: Yuta Nakano


"If I could only tell one thing to my younger self
What would I choose to tell her?"
I often wonder that

It might sound like a cliché, but I might tell her
"Your efforts will be rewarded so everything is gonna be okay"
Because I can't forget the bitterness of the tears I used to cry back then

Chorus 1

Becoming an adult didn't mean that everything would fall into place
Maybe that's the reason why I'm still walking forward even now
The truth is that time doesn't heal all wounds
All I can do is probably just cover them with smiles
Maybe that's the reason why I'm still living without giving up on myself

Back then, I would just laugh it off saying
"Countdowns are just too dramatic and out of touch with reality, right?"
But those carefree days seem too far away now
And suddenly I'm overwhelmed by how surreal this all feels

Chorus 2

To truly believe in somebody from the bottom of your heart,
To dedicate your whole life to something you believe in,
Things like that really don't suit the era that we live in
I absolutely uderstand that, but even so
I'll keep living like this
Because I have you in this world

It's always people who don't know me who say things like
"That must be tough" or "I can imagine how you feel"
But those words just turned into a circle of emptiness and then shattered

Chorus 1 (Repetition)

Chorus 2 (Repetition)
