Siren - Kare no Hidari Te ni Nikukyuu

Lyrics to the song on the record that plays during Tamon's nest stage, by Eri Azuma. Likely based on "Watashi no Kare wa Hidari Kiki" by Megumi Asaoka, 1973 (listen here).

Japanese

私の彼の左手に肉球

頬に手を添え キスする 彼の
大きく手を振り 私を呼ぶ 彼の
何故か何故か 彼の左手に肉球
私の涙を優しく 拭う彼の
何故か何故か 彼の左手に肉球
私の手を取り 微笑むあなた

猫(猫) かも 猫かもしれない

風に舞う花びら 捕まえる時も
背中に見えない文字 描く時も
何故か何故か 彼の左手に肉球
私の髪を優しく 撫でる手に
何故か何故か 彼の左手に肉球
とぼけてウィンク 意地悪あなた

猫(猫) かも 猫かもしれない

あなたの秘密覗いて みたいけれど
あなたはとぼけてウィンク 意地悪だわ

あなたの秘密覗いて みたいけれど
あなたはとぼけてウィンク でもね好きよ

あなたの秘密覗いて みたいけれど
あなたはとぼけてウィンク 意地悪だわ

あなたの秘密覗いて みたいけれど
あなたはとぼけてウィンク でもね好きよ

Lalala…猫かもしれない…
Lalala…猫かもしれない…

English

A Paw on My Boyfriend's Left Hand

when he puts his hand to my cheek and kisses me
when he waves to me and calls out to me
for some reason, for some reason there's a paw on his left hand
when he wipes my tears away gently
for some reason, for some reason there's a paw on his left hand
you take my hand and smile

maybe, just maybe, maybe he's a cat

when he catches petals fluttering in the breeze
when he draws invisible letters on my back
for some reason, for some reason there's a paw on his left hand
when he strokes my hair softly
for some reason, for some reason there's a paw on his left hand
you feign innocence with a wink, so cruel

maybe, just maybe, maybe he's a cat

I want to take a peek into your secrets
but you just feign innocence and wink, so cruel

I want to take a peek into your secrets
but you just feign innocence and wink, but I still love you

I want to take a peek into your secrets
but you just feign innocence and wink, so cruel

I want to take a peek into your secrets
but you just feign innocence and wink, but I still love you

La la la... he might be a cat...
La la la... he might be a cat...
