[English]

The changing seasons now are becoming colorful and dyeing everything.

Happy, happy—our love story is just beginning.

I can't believe you're so close to me.

I’ve never felt so good—my feelings overflow.

Oh, I love you...

Because I love you.

This summer, surely...

You are the only one.

Only for you...

I want you to know everything.

I just want to be by your side.

If my feelings reach you...

Can I dream a little longer? Hey, is that okay?

Every day, every night, only you...

You... you... you...

You are... oh, my lover...

The seaside I was gazing at, and this gentle, soothing breeze...

Everything, everything feels so precious...

Even without words, you know, right?

You're always in my heart—I can tell you now.

Oh, I love you.

Because I love you.

Since that day... forever...

You are the only one.

So mysterious...

Being with you makes my heart kind.

Just want to be by your side.

I can’t put it into words well...

Can you trust these feelings? Hey, is that okay?

Every day, every night, I’m in love with you.

You... you... you...

You are... oh, my lover...

Gently touching hands, eyes a little moist...

Breathless from this hot closeness...

Just as the summer sun intends...

Spending these days with you feels so warm...

The sound of the waves is so frustrating...

Unable to do anything, just by your side...

Entrusting everything to words—please make sure...

Let me stay by your side, even in the days ahead.

Oh, I love you...

Because I love you.

Always from now on...

You are the only one.

Only for you...

I want you to know everything.

Just want to be by your side.

If my feelings can reach you...

Can I dream a little longer? Hey, is that okay?

You are the only one.

So mysterious...

Being with you makes my heart kind.

Just want to be by your side.

I can't say it well, but...

Trust these feelings—hey, is that okay?

Every day, every night, I love you.

You... you... you...

You are... oh, my lover...

Entrusting words—please confirm...

Let me stay by your side from now on.
