Lyrics & Translation
That’s “I Love You”
That’s our secret word
Things you know even without telling
It’s wonderful when you can express it
Sometimes it’s really important
Our code word is a word of love
Talking about love on sleepless nights
The taste of tears we've comforted each other with
Sometimes holding each other, protecting each other
“Are you okay?” “I’m okay!”
Even when we’re apart, it can still reach you
Close your eyes, see? you’re smiling
That’s proof of living, a reason to be alive
Maybe… surely so!
Sharing joys, feelings, and love
Let’s be wrapped in all-encompassing love
“It’s not in shape, but it’s in my heart”
That’s “I Love You”
That’s our secret word
Things you know even without telling
It’s wonderful when you can express it
Just gazing is okay too
All of that is a song of love
You give it as if it’s natural
A special moment that felt normal on an ordinary day
No matter how tough times are, so we won’t forget
Baby… let’s hold each other tight, okay?
Even if unseen, it’s always by our side
Love that’s repeatedly sent and received
Thinking of you warms my heart
That’s “I Love You”
That’s our secret word
When you realize it, see?
Deep in your heart…
Calling each other softly makes it gentle
Your voice echoes
Always, forever
That’s right!
Sharing joys, feelings, and love
Let’s be wrapped in all-encompassing love
“It’s not in shape, but it’s in my heart”
That’s “I Love You”
That’s our secret word
“I Love You”
That’s our secret word
[Secret word]
