[English]

The morning glow illuminated the gaps between the buildings

You, sleeping next to me, are in a dream

Just more, just like this

The ticking of the second hand echoes loudly

On nights I felt lonely, on nights I feared the future

You always shone your light on me

A single flower blooming in my heart

I will pour this love into you

Just facing each other, crying together

Embracing each other, calling my name

You called me over and over again

Under the unending rain, beneath the invisible stars

You always believed in me

Facing each other, crying together

Embracing each other, calling your name

Is it okay if I call you over and over again?

So that this fleeting light won't disappear

Let's keep walking

Always, just the two of us

On the way home, holding hands

Even the casual conversations

Feel happy because it's you

Look, let's move forward without hesitation

Because I'm always

by your side

Always, always together

No matter what tomorrow brings

Facing each other, crying together

Embracing each other, calling my name

You called me over and over again

Under the unending rain, beneath the invisible stars

You always believed in me

Facing each other, crying together

Embracing each other, calling your name

Is it okay if I call you over and over again?

So that this fleeting light won't disappear

Let's keep walking

Always, just the two of us

[Japanese]

朝焼けが照らした ビルの隙間

隣で眠るあなた夢の中

もっと、ただこのまま

うるさいほどに鳴り響く秒針

孤独を感じた夜も 未来に怯えた夜も

いつもわたしだけを照らしてくれた

心の中咲いてる一輪の花と

あなたにこの愛を注いでいこう

ただ 向き合って 泣き合って

抱き合って わたしの名を

何回も何回も 呼んでくれたね

止まない雨の中 見えない星の下

ずっとわたしを信じてくれたね

向き合って 泣き合って

抱き合って あなたの名を

何回も何回も 呼んでもいいかな？

儚い光がほら 消えないように

歩いていこう

ずっと ふたりのまま

手を繋ぐ帰り道

何気ない会話さえ

幸せだと思えるのは あなただから

ほら、迷わず進もう

いつもあなたの

そばにいるから

ずっとずっとふたりで

どんな明日も

向き合って 泣き合って

抱き合って わたしの名を

何回も何回も 呼んでくれたね

止まない雨の中 見えない星の下

ずっとわたしを信じてくれたね

向き合って 泣き合って

抱き合って あなたの名を

何回も何回も 呼んでもいいかな？

儚い光がほら 消えないように

歩いていこう

ずっと ふたりのまま
