[English]

Orange kiss.

Yeah. Uh.

Until I met you

I forgot even to look up at the sky.

The sunset always shined on us.

In tough times,

thinking of you,

gives me strength.

I hope you feel the same.

Step by step,

the sweet feeling of love

beats in my chest.

I like, like, like you.

It's the truth,

underneath the orange sky,

I'll tell you.

With your gaze,

with your warmth,

tell me about everything you've been through.

Both the sweet moments and the bitter ones,

I'll hold you and protect you.

If we stay close,

even fear turns into curiosity.

Let's overcome it.

Let's repaint.

Color today pure white,

with this orange kiss.

The sky is getting darker,

but our colors won't change.

No matter what we've been through,

Let's repaint our future.

Into our colors.

With your gaze,

with your warmth,

tell me about everything you've been through.

Both the sweet moments and the bitter ones,

I'll hold you and protect you.

If we stay close,

even fear turns into curiosity.

Let's overcome it.

Let's repaint.

Color today pure white,

with this orange kiss.

Oh.

Oh.

[Japanese]

オレンジkiss。

Yeah. Uh.

君に出会うまで

空を見上げることさえ忘れてた。

夕陽は いつだって、僕らを照らしてた。

辛い時にはね

君を思い出すと

がんばれてしまう

どうか君も、そうであってくれますように

Step by step

甘い恋が

胸を叩いてる音がする

君が好き好き好き

って事実を

オレンジ色の空の下で

伝えるよ。

そのまなざしで、

そのぬくもりで、

君の今までを教えて。

甘いとこも、苦いとこも

抱きしめて、守るから。

君と寄り添えば

恐怖心さえ好奇心

乗り越えて行こう

塗り替えて行こう

真っ白な今日を染めてく

この オレンジkiss。

空が暗くなってきたね

だけど僕らの色は変わらない。

これまでどんなことがあっても

これからで塗り替えて行こう。

僕らの色に。

そのまなざしで、

そのぬくもりで、

君の今までを教えて。

甘いとこも、苦いとこも

抱きしめて、守るから。

君と寄り添えば

恐怖心さえ好奇心

乗り越えて行こう

塗り替えて行こう

真っ白な今日を染めてく

この オレンジkiss。

Oh.

Oh.
