In the Park
福原遥 Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

太陽の光が差す公園を君と歩く
君と一歩分の距離それがもどかしくて

もっと側にそっと願う
素直には言えなくて
見つめ合ってときめいて
はにかみ笑う

甘い恋の予感だね初めて近づいた
その瞬間に思わずキュンとなった
君が夢中になるかわいいわたしになりたい
新しいわたし始まった

(もっと側にもっと側に)

青い緑が揺れてる公園を君と歩く
君と半歩分の距離ドキドキ隠せない

きっと君もそっと願う
まだ伝えられなくて
近づいたその瞬間
頬赤く染まる

甘い恋の魔法だね君がいる世界は
何気ない景色もカラフルに色づいて
君がときめくような笑顔のわたしでいたい
新しいふたり始めよう

甘い恋の予感だね初めて近づいた
その瞬間に思わずキュンとなった

甘い恋の魔法だね君がいる世界は
何気ない景色もカラフルに色づいて
君がときめくような笑顔のわたしでいたい
新しいわたし始まった
新しいふたり始めよう

(もっと側にもっと側に)
(そっと願うそっと願う)
