Ayumi Hamasaki - Poker Face Lyrics

poker face
Lyrics: Ayumi Hamasaki
Composer: Yasuhiko Hoshino
Arranger: Akimitsu Honma
English and Romaji translations by wataru



It's always so simple I could cry, but I want to smile.
I want your love.

My true form begins to dim little by little.
From inside the surging crowd I push aside, as long as I can't get answers I've been searching.
The better I become at telling lies and excuses, the more I feel afraid in the emptiness.

It's always so simple I could cry, but I want to smile.
If I become stronger I'll forget even your kindness, so I want to stay weak.
I want your love.

People are always solitary beings.
So I need someone. I want to be suported and I want to be supporting.
Nothing is certain, but in my heart I still believe.

If an important thing is found let's protect it to the end.
If I hit a wall that's too high and get hurt, I should stand up again.
I don't wish for anything else, just that one is enough.
I want your love.
