ふわふわ時間(タイム) [Fuzzy Time]

One of the easiest things to overlook here is that the title has a double meaning. ふわふわ (fuwafuwa) often (and perhaps most commonly) refers to somthing being light and fluffy or ethereal, like cotton candy, clouds, or pleasant dreams. However, it can also refer to feeling restless and unable to settle down. Both meanings apply here, even though they end up being almost opposites—one suggests a comfortably tranquil dreamlike time, while the other suggests an agitated time filled with uncertainties. It's difficult to mimic the wordplay in English, but I've settled on "fuzzy" to suggest both fuzzy wool and fuzzy uncertainties.

Intro ~11 seconds
キミを見てるといつもハートDOKI☆DOKI
揺れる思いはマシュマロみたいにふわ☆ふわ
いつもがんばる(e)キミの横顔(e)
ずっと見てても気づかないよね
夢の中なら(e)二人の距離縮められるのにな
KIMI wo mite ru to itsu mo HAATO DOKI☆DOKI
Yureru omoi wa MASHUMARO mitai ni fuwa☆fuwa

Zutto mite te mo kidzukanai yo ne
Yume no naka nara(e) futari no kyori chidjimerareru no ni na
Whenever I look at you, my heart's always rac☆ing
My trembling feelings are like marshmallows, light☆fluffy
You're always hard at work when I see your face from the side,
But no matter how I watch you, you're not about to notice me.
At least in my dreams, I can close the distance between us.
あぁカミサマお願い

Ahh, God, please grant to me
Some dream time for just the two of us☆
Cradling my favorite bunny, good night again tonight♪

Your casual mannerisms have my heart throb★bing again today.
I read too much into your offhand smile and overheat!
The serious look I saw on your face once
Floats into my head even when I close my eyes.
Even if only in dreams, I want some sweet time for the two of us.
あぁカミサマどうして
好きになるほどDream nightせつないの
とっておきのくまちゃん出したし今夜は大丈夫かな?
Aa KAMI-SAMA doushite
Suki ni naru hodo Dream night setsunai no
Totteoki no kuma-chan dashita shi kon'ya wa daijoubu ka na?
Ahh, God, why
Is my dream night more upsetting the more I fall for him3?
I've brought out my reserve teddy bear, so will I be okay tonight?
Interlude ~28 seconds
もすこし勇気ふるって
自然に話せば
何かが変わるのかな?
そんな気するけど
Mo sukoshi yuuki furutte
Shizen ni hanaseba
Nani ka ga kawaru no ka na?
Sonna ki suru kedo
If I could show a bit more courage
And speak up naturally,
Would anything change?
I get the feeling it would.

The following stanza is more spoken than sung. The lyric booklet puts the whole thing in a big set of parenthess.

だけどそれが一番難しいのよ
話のきっかけとかどうしよ
てか段取り考えてる時点で全然自然じゃないよね
あぁもういいや寝ちゃお寝ちゃお寝ちゃおーっ!
(そう!寝ちゃおーっ!) [E]
Dakedo sore ga ichiban muzukashii no yo
Hanashi no kikkake to ka dou shiyo
Te ka dandori kangaete ru jiten de zenzen shizen ja nai yo ne
Aa mou ii ya nechao nechao nechaouu!
(Sou! Nechaouu!) [E]
But that's the hardest part!
What am I supposed to do to get us talking?
But wait, if I'm thinking out a plan, it's already not natural at all.
Oh, forget it, let's sleep, let's sleep, let's sleeeeep!
(Right! Let's sleeeeep!) [E]
あぁカミサマお願い
一度だけのMiracle Timeください!
もしすんなり話せればその後は…どうにかなるよね
Aa KAMI-SAMA o-negai
Ichido dake no Miracle Time kudasai!
Moshi sunnari hanasereba sono ato wa...
 dou ni ka naru yo ne
Ahh, God, please grant to me
Some miracle time, just once!
If we could just have a decent conversation,
 the rest... would all fall into place somehow.

(e) The secondary vocalist (usually Mio, though occasionally she gets stuck with lead vocals if something happens to Yui) typically echos the marked phrases.

[E] The secondary vocalist typically adds this modified echo here. The exact writing is guesswork, but I'm confident of the meaning.

1 The lyrics are credited to Mio Akiyama, one of the main characters, who comes up with them when the band belatedly realizes they don't have any words. However, keep in mind that she's a fictional character. Kakifly, the author of the original manga, wrote the lyrics here in the real world.

2 Throughout the song and also in the title, the kanji 時間 (jikan, time) are given the reading タイム (TAIMU, time).

3 Or her. There's nothing to go on beyond assumptions and the singer's obvious femaleness.
