[You're Under Arrest] LOVE SOMEBODY by Fukui Mariko

Auf! You're Under Arrest was such an iconic anime of my childhood. I don't remember the details or if it was ever problematic, but I definitely found newer and stronger female icons in Natsumi and Miyuki. I can't help but stan even two decades later!

Kanji Romaji English

きっとLove Somebody　いつの日にも
見つけてみせる　Take My Chance
運命のベルが鳴れば　扉は開くよ

毎日つぶやいてる　何か足りない
せめてときめきは　Keepしたいね
理想は遠くて　現実は近くて
風も強いけれど　笑ってる自分を
ギュッと抱きしめて　絶対　強くなる

たぶん何倍も　ステキに見える
途方に暮れてる　暇なんかないから
いつも元気だして
迷ってはいけない
グット前向きに　しっかりしなくちゃね

I know I'll love somebody　And on that day too
I'll find what I'm looking for and take my chance
When the fated bell rings,　That door will open

Everyday, I find myself muttering　There's something missing
At the very least, I want to keep this fluttering feeling
This reality is so far from the ideal
Still, despite the strong winds　I'll hold on tight
To this smile on my face　I'll become stronger no matter what!

I know I'll love somebody　And on that day too
I'll find what I'm looking for and take my chance
I want to stop time on earth and become their angel
I know I'll love somebody　Should I ever meet them,
For that irreplaceable person,
My passion will be unstoppable　We'll fly into the future

The dream I'm looking at alone, I know
Can probably become so many times better if we see it together
The path is coming to an end　And since I have no time to spare
I'll keep my spirits up
I can't get lost
Facing forward, head on　I can't be anything but steady

I know I'll love somebody　And on that day too
I believe that I'll get my chance
When the fated bell rings,　That door will open
I know I'll love somebody　And when I meet
That person I'd been looking for,
The sun will always be shining　I know there are such things as miracles

I know I'll love somebody　And on that day too
I'll find what I'm looking for and take my chance
I want to stop time on earth and become their angel
I know I'll love somebody　Should I ever meet them,
For that irreplaceable person,
My passion will be unstoppable　We'll fly into the future

I know I'll love somebody　And when I meet
That person I've been looking for,

The sun will always be shining　So let's start running forward now

NOTES

1. "Risou wa tookute　Genjitsu wa chikakute" literally means "the ideal is far; reality is near" but I translated it differently so the meaning would be clearer.
2. "Unmei no beru" is more literally "the bell of fate," but it sounded weird so I went will "fated bell." Lol.
