程よい くらいに make up
君の好きな フレイバー
身にまとい change up
甘く溶け出す ほどに
踊り出す you're my baby girl, yeah
目と目が合うたび魔法
二度と溶けないでと I thought
不意に手を伸ばす 午前0時
愛想つかれようが 今宵はきっと
振り返る間もない 僕らの旅
君にずっと かけがえないエンド
届けたい だけなのに
愛想つかれようが 今宵はきっと
振り返る間もない 僕らの旅
君とずっと かけがえない絵を
描きたい だけなのに
浄化したはずなのに
ふとした瞬間 不安に
踊らされる 自問自答に
取り返しつかないよ
なんてやわだよ
途切れそうな二人の night dream
目と目が合うたび魔法
二度と溶けないでと I thought

届けたい だけなのに
愛想つかれようが 今宵はきっと
振り返る間もない 僕らの旅
君とずっと かけがえない絵を
