嵐(Arashi) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Toki ni wa suna wo ni narezuni
Naita kisetsu wo koeta bokura wa
Ima totemo kagayaiteruyo
Sorezore egaku
Shiawase no katachi wa kasanai ima ookina ai ni naru
Hyakunen saki mo ai wo chikau yo
Kimi wa boku no subete sa
Shinjiteiru tada shinjiteru
Onaji toki wo kizamu hitoe
Donna kimi mo donna bokudemo
Hitotsu hitotsu ga itoshi
Kimi ga ireba nanimo iranai
Kitto to shiawaseni suru kara
Ame no naka de kimi wo matteta
Yasashisa no imi sae shiradzu
Sure chigai ni kizutsuita yoru
Soredemo koko made kitanda
Dakega he no nai
Deai wa kiseki wo tsunaide ku
Omoi de kasanariyau
Hajimari no uta nani hibide
Donna toki mo sasaete kureta warai naita nakama e
Kokoro tomete tada hitotsu dake okuru kotoba wa arigatou
Hyakunen saki mo ai wo chikau wo
Kimi wa boku no subete sa
Aishiteiru tada aishiteru
Onaji asu yakusoku shiyou
Sekaiju ni tada hitori dake boku wa kimi wo eranda
Kimi to ireba donna mirai mo zutto kagayaiteirukara
Larara larara larararararara larara larararararara
Larara larara larararararara larara larararraararara
