まだ君は知らない

You still don't know

My prettiest girl

My prettiest girl

Pretty pretty, prettiest girl

So pretty, my sweetest girl

Pretty pretty, prettiest girl...

So pretty, my sweetest girl...

ソワソワしながら

Feeling nervous yet excited

現れた君は yea

There you are, appearing, yeah

「あの子は誰なの？」って oh no

Everyone’s asking, 'Who’s that girl?' oh no

みんなが話してた噂のGirl

That rumored girl everyone talks about

少し照れくさそうに

Looking a little shy

目そらすけど

Looking away though

何も恥じるものなんてないさ

There's nothing to be ashamed of

その笑顔以外

Other than that smile

欲しくなんかない

I don’t want anything else

顔上げて Don’t be shy

Lift your face, don’t be shy

君が思うより

More than you think

ずっと素敵なのに

You’re much more wonderful

まだ君は知らない

You still don’t realize

My prettiest girl

My sweetest girl

綺麗な茶色い目

Your beautiful brown eyes

キスしたくなる口びる

Your lips make me want to kiss

長い髪で隠そうとしないで

Don’t try to hide your long hair

その仕草さえ愛しいけど

Even your gestures are adorable

でもわかっているから

But I know

頭の中

Your mind

俺のことでいっぱいだろう？

Is it full of thoughts about me?

(そんなことないもん)

(It’s not like that)

その笑顔以外

Other than that smile

欲しくなんかない

There’s nothing else I want

顔上げて Don’t be shy

Lift your face, don’t be shy

You’re much more wonderful

My prettiest girl

My sweetest girl

ねえ俺の目を見てよ baby

Hey, look into my eyes, baby

からかってるつもりなんてない

I’m not teasing you

受け止めて

Please accept this

この全て

All of this

うまくいえないけど君に

Can't put it into words, but to you

夢中なだけ

I’m just captivated

ありのままの

Just as I am

君でいいんだよ

You’re perfect for me

何も間違ってない

There’s nothing wrong

その笑顔以外

Other than that smile
