[English]

Still, I just want to send it to you

I just want to deliver it

Words are no longer enough

Oh, my feelings are overflowing

In the winter sky where my breath turns to white,

If I put my wishes into it,

It feels like it might reach you

I clasp my trembling hands

Hoping my worries will disappear

If I look down, tears might spill

Though I can only be by your side

Even so, I just love you dearly

I just love you dearly

It's okay for you to be just as you are

Oh, my feelings are overflowing

It’s okay no matter how many times

I'll listen

With your honest eyes

Your repeated words

And that innocent smile

I want to protect them forever

When you're anxious, I'll hold you tight

Even if this is all I can do

Even so, I just love you dearly

I just love you dearly

I love your earnest, clumsy姿勢

Still, I just want to send it to you

I just want to deliver it

It’s okay for you to be just as you are

Oh, my feelings are overflowing

(Just as you are, so special, so special)

Even so, I just love you dearly

I just love you dearly

I want to laugh with you as long as a second longer

Still, I just want to send it to you

I just want to deliver it

Words are no longer enough

Oh, my feelings are overflowing

...

[Japanese]

それでもただ届けたくて

ただ届けたくて

言葉じゃもう足りないくらい

ああ想いが溢れてくよ

息が白く溶ける冬空に

願いを込めたなら

届きそうな気がして

かじかむ手握った

不安消えるように

下を向いたら涙がこぼれそう

そばにいるしかできないけど

それでもただ愛おしくて

ただ愛おしくて

君は君のそのままでいい

ああ想いが溢れてくよ

何度だっていいよ

聞いてあげる

まっすぐな瞳で

繰り返す言葉も

無垢なその笑顔も

守りたいんだずっと

不安な時はぎゅっと抱きしめるよ

こんなことしかできないけど

それでもただ愛おしくて

ただ愛おしくて

不器用でもひたむきなその姿が好きだ

それでもただ届けたくて

ただ届けたくて

君は君のそのままでいい

ああ想いが溢れてくよ

（君は君のままそのままで so special, so special）

それでもただ愛おしくて

ただ愛おしくて

一秒でも長く一緒に笑っていたい

それでもただ届けたくて

ただ届けたくて

言葉じゃもう足りないくらい

ああ想いが溢れてくよ
