Utada Hikaru - Colors English translation lyrics

Colors

While I was worrying about the illusions reflected in the mirror
at some point I'd picked up the pace
Having been told "you can go anywhere you want,"
all the guideposts turned grey under my half-baked desires
The flickering flame
Draws out a dream again tonight
Is the tip of your paintbrush
Drying out?

If you can see a blue sky, open a blue umbrella
How about it?
The canvas is yours
Do you fly a white flag only when you've given up?
Beckoned now by pure red
Like a bullfighter

Colors faded under a fluorescent bulb
I meet you on a black-and-white chessboard
Wandering, we hold each other close
for a time
But a month later
Will we still remember?

Watching an orange sunset by your side
It was good, and yet
The less said the better*
Do you wear black only when mourning?
A red lipstick kiss purposely left behind

And if you say "For me,
there are nothing but dreamless pictures left to draw"
Paint the whole canvas over, however many times it takes
Do you fly a white flag only when you've given up?
Now I've become a color that you do not know

Miraa ga utsushidasu maboroshi wo 
Ki ni shinagara itsu no mani ka sokudo ageteru no sa 
Doko e itte mo ii to iwareru to 
Hanpa na ganbou ni wa hyoushiki mo zenbu haiiro da 

Honoo no yurameki koyoi mo yume wo egaku 
Anata no fudesaki kawaite imasen ka 

Aoi sora ga mienu nara aoi kasa hirogete 
Ii ja nai ka, kyanbasu wa kimi no mono 
Shiroi hata wa akirameta toki ni dake kazasu no 
Ima wa makka ni sasou tougyuushi no you ni 

Karaa mo iro aseru keikoutou no moto 
Shirokuro no chesuboodo no ue de kimi ni deatta 

Bokura wa hitotoki mayoi nagara yorisotte 
Arekara hitotsuki oboete imasu ka 

Orenji iro no yuuhi wo tonari
De miteru dake de yokatta no ni na, 
'Kuchi wa wazawai no moto' 
Kuroi fuku wa shisha ni inoru toki ni dake kiru no 
Wazato makka ni nokoshita ruuju no ato 

Mou jibun ni wa yume no nai e shika egakenai to iu nara 
Nuritsubushite yo kyanbasu wo nando demo 
Shiroi hata wa akirameta toki ni dake kazasu no 
Ima no watashi wa anata no shiranai iro
