ゲンキダシテ
大黒摩季 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
忙しい 寝不足なのも 夢という名の女の人だった
不器用で 強引で 言葉もキツクて 飲んだらクドくて
嫌いになろうと すればするほど
いいことも思い出してもっと好きになる
Fight!! 諦めましょう 次を探して忘れましょう
Yes!! 運命なら嫌がっても また会える
ゲンキダシテ
Chance は一度きりじゃない さぁ 歩きだそう
キアイイレテ
笑えるまで磨きかけて 後悔させてやろ
理性ではなんとなく待っていようって思っていたのに
どうしても会いたい 声を聞きたい
大した荷物でもないのに押し掛けて
Life 人生なんて知れば知るほど理不尽な money's world
Love 傷ついても夢見てるあなたが好きだった
Hey!! ありのまま見せちゃダメよ 捨てられちゃうから
ワスレナイデ
いつまでも 隠した弱さも 全部 愛してる
キニシナイデ
わたしは大丈夫だけど
掃除はしてもらってね
I want chances more
Now isn't a chances so far
But, I want chances more
I can't stop my life
I want chances more
Now isn't a chances so far
But, I want chances more
I can't stop my life
ゲンキダシテ
信じた道を走り抜けて 星より輝いて
ユウキダシテ
わたしも祈っているわ 自由にはばたいて
あなたらしく生きて
どこまでも いつまでも
ゲンキダシテ
あなたなら出来るはずよ
わたしがいなくても
