Ichiban iitai koto ga jouzu ni ienai no, doushite

Nakushite shimau mae ni chanto tsutaenakucha da yo ne

Kyou wa anata to warai aete

Jibun ga chotto suki ni nareta yo

Hitori ja kitto konna kimochi mo shiranai de

Utsumuiteta hazu

Itsuka kono koi ga shiawase na sekai e

Fumidaseru toki ga otozureru made

Nani ga dekiru darou nandemo dekirutte

Shinjite miru yo, watashi

Ima wa chiisakute okubyou na KOKORO

Sukoshi zutsu kawatte ikeru you ni

Ganbatte mitai yo ganbatte ii yo ne?

Motto jishin moteru made

Anata to deaete kara umareta yuuki o kazoeru

Dore dake hagemasarete itsu no manika hikareteta

Ashita futari de aruite iku

Sonna jibun o akiramenai yo

Anata no tonari ga dare yori mo niau watashi ni narou

Itsuka kono koi ga shiawase na sekai de

Yasashii hohoemi ni tsutsumareru made

Nando mo tsumazuite

Dakedo osorenaide yowaki o norikoetai

Mune no naka hibiku mirai no ashioto

Michibiite kureru akarui basho

Hidamari no youna nukumori watashi mo

Chanto anata ni todokerun da

Itsuka kono koi ga shiawase na sekai e

Fumidaseru toki ga otozureru made

Nani ga dekiru darou nandemo dekirutte

Shinjite miru yo, watashi

Ima wa chiisakute okubyou na KOKORO

Sukoshi zutsu kawatte ikeru you ni

Ganbatte mitai yo ganbatte ii yo ne?

Zutto anata no soba de

いちばん言いたいことが上手に言えないの、どうして

なくしてしまう前に　ちゃんと伝えなくちゃだよね

今日はあなたと笑いあえて

自分がちょっと好きになれたよ

ひとりじゃきっとこんな気持ちも知らないで

うつむいてたはず

いつかこの恋がしあわせな世界へ

踏み出せる時が訪れるまで

何ができるだろう　何でもできるって

信じてみるよ、わたし

今はちいさくて臆病なココロ

少しずつ変わっていけるように

頑張ってみたいよ　頑張っていいよね?

もっと自信持てるまで

あなたと出会えてから　生まれた勇気を数える

どれだけ励まされて　いつの間にか惹かれてた

明日ふたりで歩いていく

そんな自分をあきらめないよ

あなたの隣が誰よりも似合う　わたしになろう

いつかこの恋がしあわせな世界で

優しい微笑みに包まれるまで

何度も”いて

だけど怖れないで　弱気を乗りこえたい

胸のなか響く未来の足音

導いてくれる明るい場所

日だまりのような　温もりわたしも

ちゃんとあなたに届けるんだ

いつかこの恋がしあわせな世界へ

踏み出せる時が訪れるまで

何ができるだろう　何でもできるって

信じてみるよ、わたし

今はちいさくて臆病なココロ

少しずつ変わっていけるように

頑張ってみたいよ　頑張っていいよね?

ずっとあなたの傍で

I can't say well what I want to say most, why is that

But before I lose it, I have to tell it right

Laughing together with you today,

I've come to like myself a bit more

If I were alone, I'm sure I'd just look down

Without realizing this feeling

Someday this love will step forward

To the world of happiness, but until that time arrives

What can I do? "Anything"

Is what I believe

To be able to change this tiny, timid heart

Little by little

I'll try my best, I better give it my all, right?

Until I've gained more confidence

I can count how much courage was born since I met you

Being encouraged however many times, I was attracted to you before I knew it

So that we two can walk together tomorrow

I'll never give myself up

And I'll become the person who's most suited to stay next to you

Until someday that this love will be enveloped

By a gentle smile in the world of happiness,

I may stumble many many times

But I'm not afraid of it, because I want to overcome my weak heart

Footsteps of the future that resound inside my chest

Will lead me to a bright place

This warmth, like that of the sun,

I, too, can deliver it to you

Someday this love will step forward

To the world of happiness, but until that time arrives

What can I do? "Anything"

Is what I believe

To be able to change this tiny, timid heart

Little by little

I'll try my best, I better give it my all, right?

So that I can always stay by your side
