[English]

Hey, those eyes that are staring at me

They look different from usual

Like I’m seeing them for the first time

Those eyes make me nervous

Hey, what are you thinking?

With a face I don’t recognize

Like I’m seeing it for the first time

But I can tell from those eyes

I feel it now

I feel it right now, right now, right now, right now, right now

If I hold onto those feelings

Can I reach you still?

If I’ve made some mistake

Tell me now, yeah, since I can’t even read the room

If just hearing this is no good

If you want me to look at you more than your mood, yeah

If I can’t turn back to how we were quickly, yeah

Just stay as you are today, it’s okay

Tomorrow, let’s smile again

I want us to smile together again, I don’t need anyone else right now

Cancel everything, let’s have a special moment

Let’s go buy all the clothes we love

Turn off your phone and focus on me more

Thinking, ‘I hope this works,’ oh oh

What should we eat together?

Your favorite thing, order it

Your face looks softer than yesterday

Umm, I’m captivated again

Hey, those eyes that stare at me

Look different from usual

Like I’m seeing them for the first time

Those eyes make me uneasy

Hey, what are you thinking?

With a face I don’t recognize

Like I’m seeing it for the first time

But I can tell from those eyes

I feel it now

I feel it right now, right now, right now, right now, right now

I wonder if I can reach you by holding onto those feelings

Oh, tell me now

Oh, tell me now, now, now, now, now

The more I gaze into those eyes

The harder it is to let go

Hey, those eyes that stare at me

As always, shining just the same

Every time they shine, I can’t help but smile

[Japanese]

ねぇ 僕を見つめるその目が

初めて見る

その目に僕は不安になる

ねぇ 何を思っているの？

いつにもない顔で

初めて見る

その目でも僕は分かるから

I feel it now

I feel it now now now now now

その想い抱きしめたら

まだ届くかな

もし何か間違っていたなら

空気すら読めない僕に Tell me now yeah

今、聞いている事自体ダメなら

君の顔色ばかりを見る 僕を見たいなら Yeah

すぐ元には戻せないのなら Yeah

今日くらいはいい そのままでいて

明日には 笑顔で

また笑い合いたい いらない君以外 今は

全てキャンセルし Let’s have a special time

好きな服 全部買いに行こう

携帯オフにして 君へと Focus more

「うまくいくといいな」なんて思いながら Oh oh

ふたりで何食べよう？

君の好きなの Order

昨日より和らいだ顔

Umm また心を奪われる

いつもと同じ様に

輝くたびその目に僕は笑顔になる
