Hey Baby (I wanna hold your hand)

Hey Baby, I wanna hold your hand.

So Merry (I wanna hold your hand)

Feeling so happy, I wanna hold your hand.

Hey Baby (I wanna hold your hand)

Hey Baby, I wanna hold your hand.

So Merry

Feeling so happy.

自分も知らない

I don't even know myself.

秘密は言えない

I can't tell my secrets.

キミにはわかるの?

Do you understand?

この不思議のこと

This mysterious thing.

ねえFriend (ねえFriend)

Hey, friend.

Darling (Darling)

Darling.

今日も (Baby)

Today too (Baby).

眠れない ずっときっと

I can't sleep; surely, I won't.

不安でどうしよう ねえ

Feeling anxious, what should I do, hey.

絶対 割れない キミの (ah)

Your heart will never break, ah.

ガラスの心を伝う

It traces your glass heart.

涙色の振動に (Try again)

In the vibrations of tear-colored light, try again.

思わず声が出ちゃうよ

I can't help but let out a voice.

Hey Baby (I wanna hold your hand)

Hey Baby, I wanna hold your hand.

So Merry (I wanna hold your hand)

Feeling so happy, I wanna hold your hand.

Hey Baby (I wanna hold your hand)

Hey Baby, I wanna hold your hand.

So Merry

Feeling so happy.

I wanna hold your hand

I wanna hold your hand.

今まで どうしたら

What should I have done until now?

良いのか知らずに

Not knowing what was right.

傷を深くした

I made the wounds deeper.

刃を溶かして

Dissolving the blade.

ねえFriend (ねえFriend)

Hey, friend.

Darling (Darling)

Darling.

今日も (Baby)

Today too (Baby).

落ち着かない ちゃんときっと

Can't settle down, but surely.

上手くいくはず ねえ

Things should go well, right?

絶対 割れない キミの (ah)

Your heart will never break, ah.

ガラスの心を伝う

It traces your glass heart.
