DESTINY
My Little Lover Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
想いがもっと届いたら
涙が溢れること たった今
想い出せたの
心からの サインが乱れてる
両極に揺れる 自分を笑う
つじつまさえ 合わせられなくて
過ぎてゆく日々を ほどいていた
現在(いま)がここで 回りだす
近づくほどに遠く
海のように揺れるけど
あなたも泳いでるなら
きっと逢える 運命の時に
指と指を からませて伝う
この生命の脆さ 美しさを
この世界は 終わっても
あなたを想い出せば
あなたをもっと感じれば
涙が溢れること
ずっとずっと知っていたのに
アイシテル 愛している
ただその言葉だけで
近づくほどに遠く
想いはまだ揺れるけど
あなたを抱きしめれば
あなたをもっと感じれば
涙が溢れること
ずっとずっと知っていたのに
