Brief Comments:
This is a really cool song. It's very casual and intimate at the same time. The atmosphere surrounding the song really reminds me of one of her other songs; futatsu boshi kinenbi.

Lyrics:
パンの匂い香る今朝には
pan no nioi kaoru kesa ni wa
On this morning that smells of bread

テーブルの上にストロベリージャム
teeburu no ue ni sutoroberii jyamu
On the table, there's strawberry jam

顔に似合わず甘党なあなたの好きなもの
kao ni niawazu amatou na anata no suki na mono
Which you, who have a sweet tooth (though your face doesn't show it), like

ギリギリまでねむるあなたに
girigiri made nemuru anata ni
Even if I say "You're late!" and wake you up

ちこくするぞと起こしても
chikoku suru zo to okoshite mo
When you sleep 'til the last minute

長いまつげ　かわいいねがおに　あたしもたじたじ
nagai matsuge kawaii negao ni atashi mo tajitaji
Your long lashes and cute sleeping face still overwhelm me


あなたが好きなものは　あたしも好きになっていくものね
anata ga suki na mono wa atashi mo suki ni natte iku mono ne
The things you like are becoming the things I like, too


いつだって　あなたといると
itsudatte anata to iru to
Whenever I'm with you

嬉しさが　増えていくよ
ureshisa ga fuete iku yo
My happiness grows

いつものように　起きたらまず
itsumo no you ni okitara mazu
When I wake you up as usual

ねぼけながら　あたしにキスしてネ
nebokenagara atashi ni kisu shite ne
Kiss me while you're still half asleep


結局まだ起きないあなた
kekkyoku mada okinai anata
Later, you still won't get up

アツアツコーヒーもあるのに
atsuatsu koohii mo aru no ni
Even though I've made piping hot coffee

ねてるフリ?あたしが近づいた時おどかすつもり?
neteru furi? atashi ga chikazuita toki odokasu tsumori?
Are you just pretending to sleep? Is this a ploy to get me to come closer?


近づいてその目があいて　やっぱりとわかってながらもおどろいた
chikazuite sono me ga aite yappari to wakatte nagara mo odoroita
When I came closer, our eyes met... even though it was just as I'd thought, I was surprised


もう1度　生まれ変わっても
mou ichido umarekawatte mo
Even if we're born again

また2人　出会いたいと想う
mata futari deaitai to omou
I think we'll still want to see each other

毎日が　来るたびにきっと
mainichi ga kuru tabi ni kitto
Those feelings grow

その想いはふえていくでしょう
sono omoi wa fuete iku deshou
With each passing day


先につまみ食い　甘い甘い　ストロベリージャム
saki ni tsumamigui amai amai sutoroberii jyamu
The sweet, sweet strawberry jam that we ate with our fingers


いつだって　あなたといると
itsudatte anata to iru to
Whenever I'm with you

嬉しさが　増えていくよ
ureshisa ga fuete iku yo
My happiness grows

いつものように　起きたらまず
itsumo no you ni okitara mazu
When I wake you up as usual

ねぼけながら　あたしにキスしてネ
nebokenagara atashi ni kisu shite ne
Kiss me while you're still half asleep
