Japanese

It's time to empress

恋してキッスして pure my heart
今日から頭の中まで feelin' your heart
いつでも あなたの腕に魔法かけて

all time always thinking

ざわめく街から telephone call
さわぎの中でも何にも I don't know why, wow wow

あと何日も会えないのに

it's not true my ダーリン
it's time to be my empress

Romaji

It's time to empress

koishite KISS shite pure my heart
kyou kara atama no naka made feelin' your heart
itsudemo anata no ude ni mahou kakete

English

It's time to empress

Love me, kiss me, pure my heart
From today, inside my head, feelin' your heart
Put magic in your arm anytime

all time always thinking
it's time to empress

telephone call from a noisy city
But even in that noise, I don't know why, wow wow

Even though there's many days left until we can meet

it's not true my darling
it's time to be my empress

Song Production Information

dj TAKA

"Time to Empress" is based on the AC custom BGM in the game. For this, I reconstructed the song based on the motif of the style.
I thought about adding lyrics to the first half of the song, but I felt that the melody of that part was too high for any female vocalist.

In addition to Hoshino, who was a personal fan of the song, I invited wac to help with production of the song.
She later sent me flowers along with a PS2 version of the compilation.

Video Production Information

None.
