Angela Aki - “Foolish Love” (English Translation)
[Verse 1]
While taste-testing the dishes I've made from recipes lined up on the table
I wait and imagine the face you'll make when you taste them

[Pre-Chorus]
An hour I've waited, and yet another hour passes, yet you don't come
I look like a fool

[Chorus]
This time I was supposed to have happiness in my hand
I thought you were the special one
But you were just the same lover with a different face
Yet one more time I've fallen for a foolish love

[Verse 2]
If I busy myself and make more things to do, it's fine that I don't think about you, mmm
But just when my feelings are broken like so, you call and say, "I want to see you"

[Pre-Chorus]
It's not as if I've forgiven you, but my heart still dances up
I look like a fool

[Chorus]
This time I was supposed to have happiness in my hand
But saying yes to everything you throw at me isn't love
A bluebird rests upon the window of my heart
And it always brings with it this foolish love
Foolish love
[Bridge]
Over the phone, I say yes, my heart already dancing
I look like a fool, ooh

[Pre-Chorus]
At one point I was supposed to achieve happiness and hold it in my hands
Somewhere, that one special person is supposed to be waiting, because

[Chorus]
Expecting more from you is a fruitless endeavor
Like throwing water upon the seed of a relationship that refuses to grow
I keep falling for the same lover
Wearing a different face
But even then, I line up the dishes
And wait for you once more, foolish love
