Lyrics & Translation

[English]

They say powdery snow will fall in this town tonight.

To you, chatting excitedly about it,

I can’t bring myself to say, "There’s something I want to tell you."

Just a lonely sigh escapes.

Hey, just for tonight (don’t hide it),

I’ll say it properly (so please accept it).

More than any Santa,

The one who truly fills your heart is always going to be

Me, baby.

This is just for you,

My gift to you.

I’ll hold you tight and keep you warm.

Look up,

At the spreading silver sky,

Dreamfly heading your way.

I’ll chase you anywhere,

No matter how far.

Tell me more,

Snow falls,

Glow rises,

No gloves needed,

Let me hold your hand.

Let’s play hide-and-seek in my pocket.

I won’t let go anymore.

It might be just like WINTER MAGIC.

Hey, just for tonight,

Don’t go anywhere.

Your breath rising white,

Your cheeks flushed red—I want to see them forever,

Just for me, baby.

Show me more.

You are my present.

I’ll gently wrap you up and never let go.

Every time you’re cold,

My heart races with warmth.

As long as you’re here, I don’t need anything else.

I don’t need it.

I just want to feel you by my side forever.

More than any Santa,

The one who truly fills your heart is always going to be

Me, baby.

This is just for you,

My gift to you.

I’ll hold you tight and keep you warm.

Even someone like me,

Just for tonight, let me say it: My love.

[Japanese]

“この街にも今夜 粉雪が降るらしいね”

はしゃぎながら そう話す君へ

伝えたいことがある だなんて言えなくて

一人つく溜息

ねえ 今夜だけは (隠さずに)

ちゃんと 伝えるから (受け取ってよ)

どんなサンタよりも

君を満たす人はきっと ずっと

ねえ 僕だよ Baby

これは君だけの

僕からのプレゼント

ぎゅっと 君だけをあたためよう

Look up

広がる Silver sky

君の元へ Dreamfly

どこまでも

追いかけるよ

Tell me about more

下がる Snow

上がる Glow

Don’t need a glove

Let me hold.

僕のポッケで隠れんぼしよ

もう離れないさ

It might be just like WINTER MAGIC

ねえ 今夜だけは

どこにも行かないで

白く上がる息も

赤く染まるその頬も ずっと

僕だけに Baby

見せてほしいんだもっと

君は僕のプレゼント

そっと 包んで離さないよ

凍えるたびに

火照る トキメキ

君さえいればなにも

いらないよ

ただずっと 君を側に感じたい

どんなサンタよりも

君を満たす人はきっと ずっと

ねえ 僕だよ Baby

これは君だけの

僕からのプレゼント

ぎゅっと 君だけをあたためよう

こんな僕だけど

今夜だけは言わせて My love
