Japanese[]
Always take my heart
あなたを想う飾らない
ありのままの私でいつもいたいのbr />
深く知るたびに
傷つけ合うのが恐くて
前に歩けない
そんな痛み抱きしめて
Everlasting Love
たとえ形ある喜び得られなくても
感じているだけでいい
心は傍にいたいから
Everlasting Love
淡い霧の向こう側がわからなくても
So many times I just go with my feelings
汚れなく貫いて Just forever
終わりのない静寂に
融け込んで行く
胸の奥に閉じ込めて
Everlasting Love
二人選ぶ行き先が遠くに離れても
忘れない
同じ瞳で
同じ未来を見つめた日
Everlasting love
叶うことも消えることない情熱を
So many times I just go with my feelings
汚れなく貫いて Just forever
深く知るたびに
傷つけ合うのが恐くて
前に歩けない
そんな痛み抱きしめて
Everlasting Love
たとえ形ある喜び得られなくても
感じているだけでいい
心は傍にいたいから
Everlasting Love
淡い霧の向こう側がわからなくても
So many times I just go with my feelings
汚れなく貫いて Just forever
Everlasting Love
二人選ぶ行き先が遠くに離れても
忘れない
同じ瞳で
同じ未来を見つめた日
Everlasting love
叶うことも消えることない情熱を
So many times I just go with my feelings
汚れなく貫いて Just forever
