Lyrics & Translation
Nurturing the buds of love with tears, pouring in sadness
I was planning to let them wither away unnoticed
Your kind words pierce my heart
If it’s a dream, I should wake up from it, right?
I think I understand
Even in a love story rated 4.5 stars,
It’s an epic that can measure up with the greatest feelings
With you, I feel like I can go anywhere
Crossing even the Milky Way on butterfly wings
Precious, precious, precious, precious
Your side profile, moles, every gesture
Your existence—your presence—being a sin
What am I supposed to do now?
If we can’t be connected, let’s understand each other
Let’s confirm everything together
And today again, I love you, oh precious love
God, can I tell him the recipe for love?
Carefully assembling each part like a plastic model kit,
That’s what happiness is, building our love step by step
Precious love
Crazy, because I’m so in love with you
Precious love
God, you’re like a dream
I wouldn’t even joke about kissing you
Being dull-witted is a chronic illness
But it’s because of you that my heart relaxes
Come on, be happy and lovely
Getting butterflies at the climax
Precious, precious, precious, precious
Your gaze, your breath, every gesture
Your existence—your presence—being a sin
What am I supposed to do now?
If we can’t be connected, let’s understand each other
Let’s confirm everything together
And today again, I love you, oh precious love
