Kotoshi hajimete no yuki da nan da ka ureshiku natta

Sora miagetetara parapara to tsumetai mono ga futte kita surprise

“A, hontou da. sakki made ame datta no ni ne”

“tsumoru ka naa”

Yuki to koi tte dokoka niteru ki ga suru no wa naze?

Ichiban saisho ga moriagari no piiku rashii

Sore dake de romantikku de nanika kitai shichau keredo

Nanigoto mo naku owatte doro darake no michibata to haato

Saikin chotto ii na tte omotteru kare ga iru no

Me ga au tabi ni hatto shite ima ga tanoshii taimingu

Tsukiai hajimechau yori kono mama tomodachi ga ii

Sonna yowaki ni naru kurai mechakucha naita ano koi no sei da

Yuki wa shinshin to furu dake de kyun to shichau mono

Utagau koto nai hatsukoi no mae made

Datte ashita ni nattara itsu no ma ni ka hizashi mo dete

Yukidaruma mo tokechatte doko no michi mo bichabicha kitanai

Suteki na jikan wa itsumo honno isshun tte koto yo

Sugite shimaeba genjitsu wa ato katazuke ga taihen de…

Tsukiai hajimeru mae no dokidoki ga makkusu kamo…

Kokoro no oku ni dore kurai fantasutikku na yuki ga tsumoru ka na

Tenohira wo sashidashitara

Koi ni kawaru kizashi wo kanjita

Saikin chotto ii na tte omotteru kare ga iru no

Me ga au tabi ni hatto shite ima ga tanoshii taimingu

Tsukiai hajimechau yori kono mama tomodachi ga ii

Sonna yowaki ni naru kurai mechakucha naita ano koi no sei da

“Kirei na no wa ima dake da shi”

“ashita wa michi mo doro darake ni nacchau kedo”

“yappari, yuki tte ii yo ne”

今年初めての雪だ なんだか嬉しくなった

空見上げてたらパラパラと冷たいものが降って来た surprise

「あ 本当だ さっきまで雨だったのにね」

「積もるかなあ」

雪と恋ってどこか似てる気がするのはなぜ?

一番最初が盛り上がりのピークらしい

それだけでロマンティックで何か期待しちゃうけれど

何事もなく終わって泥だらけの道端とハート

最近ちょっといいなって思ってる彼がいるの

目が合う度にハッとして今が楽しいタイミング

付き合い始めちゃうよりこのまま友達がいい

そんな弱気になるくらいめちゃくちゃ泣いたあの恋のせいだ

雪はしんしんと降るだけでキュンとしちゃうもの

疑うことない初恋の前まで

だって明日になったらいつの間にか日差しも出て

雪だるまも溶けちゃってどこの道もびちゃびちゃ汚い

素敵な時間はいつもほんの一瞬ってことよ

過ぎてしまえば現実は後片付けが大変で

付き合い始める前のどきどきがマックスかも

心の奥にどれくらいファンタスティックな雪が積もるかな

掌を差し出したら

恋に変わる兆しを感じた

最近ちょっといいなって思ってる彼がいるの

目が合う度にハッとして今が楽しいタイミング

付き合い始めちゃうよりこのまま友達がいい

そんな弱気になるくらいめちゃくちゃ泣いたあの恋のせいだ

「キレイなのは今だけだし」

「明日は道も泥だらけになっちゃうけど」

「やっぱり 雪っていいよね」

This is the first snow of the year, somehow I'm happy

I looked up at the sky, something cold came falling, it was a surprise

"Ah that's right. It's been raining until now"

"It's piling up"

Why do I feel that love and snow is somehow similar?

The first one is the very peak of excitement

That alone makes me expect something romantic but

Everything ends with nothing, there are only muddy roads and a heart

There's a guy that I think is kinda cool recently

I'm get happy every time our eyes meet

Instead of dating, I want to stay friends

I cried a lot and became weak because of that love

Just from the snow falling slowly, makes my heart skip a beat

Before the first love can't be doubted

Because when tomorrow comes, the sun will shin before you know it

The snowmen will melt and the roads will become wet and dirty

Beautiful times will always happen in a flash

In reality, it will be hard to clean up when time passes

The heart is at its max when you start dating

I wonder how much fantastic snow will pile in my heart

When I hold out my palm

I feel a sign that turns into love

There's a guy that I think is kinda cool recently

I'm get happy every time our eyes meet

Instead of dating, I want to stay friends

I cried a lot and became weak because of that love

"Now is a good time"

"The roads may be full of mud tomorrow"

"In the end, the snow is beautiful"
