Utada Hikaru – Wait & See - Risuku - Lyrics 16 years ago
But it shouldn't be as easy as saying
"Even though I slipped up..."
Hold on, I'm sure if you just understood me a bit more
A better rain would fall

"Selfish." That's what I was called
It's alright to feel lonely sometimes
Riding in the solution we put out together
We'll pass by all the cloudy skies

Though the tires that won't spin line up before our eyes
I wonder who's hypocrite who won't step on the accelerator

Oh baby wait and see
Sometimes, even pain is good
It's because there's risk
That faith has meaning
It's impossible not to get lost

Oh baby wait and see
Even though waiting isn't my specialty
It's too soon to start your scolding
Don't believe in things like fortune-telling

Turning to love, there's a shortage on the left side
That's why I need you
Do you intend to protect
Yourself with your cold attitude?

Give me the power to endure what I cannot change
And also to change what I cannot endure

Oh baby wait and see
Even though it's no fun to hurt
It's because there's risk
That we become strong enough to fight
It's impossible not to be afraid

Oh baby can't you see
Even though waiting isn't my specialty
It's too soon to start your scolding
Don't believe in things like fortune-telling

So baby wait and see
There's no wound that can't be soothed
I wonder if it's because there's risk
That we hurt the more we love
There's nothing wrong with that

I wonder if it will be easier
If I were to run somewhere far away
There's no way it should be
Because no matter where I am, I'm still me

If the key is too high, you can drop it
Because the song has strength that won't change
There's only one point where suffering can pass through
Like a bracelet that's too big, it slips right away

Don't believe until you see all there is to see

I'm sorry if the translation's not correct - it's not mine.

I love all of hikki's songs just because they're special, not only in the lyrics but also in the sound.

Utada Hikaru – Taking My Money Back Lyrics 16 years ago
I totally agree with you Soar. It's as if a totally different person wrote the songs on her last album. Her sound is still as unique and beautiful as ever, but the writing is suddenly so different. I like listening to simple songs like these because I often like the rhythm, but it doesn't fit her at all.

The song meaning is pretty obvious: someone she was in a relationship with took adventage of her and she isn't taking it anymore.
