出会えたあの日のこと
君を想いながら
舞い落ちる雪見つめてる
すれ違って胸が苦しい夜は
白い雪は溶けて
二人のほほを濡らすけど
Oh, holy night
溶けない魔法の夜
白い世界で
雪より白く光る心で
I'm waiting for you
会いたくて会いたくて
瞳閉じて君を見る
粉雪がつつみこみ
全ての音を無くせば
胸の中に流れる優しい君の
Melody
何もかも白く染まるとき
君に捧げよう
White world
Now and forever
変わらないものがある
生きる意味をそっと
教えた君への想い
Oh, holy night
覚めない夢を見よう
永遠を信じる二人だけの世界へ
My heart will go on
恋こがれる奇跡を
誰もがみなかみしめる
粉雪のせいじゃくを
たたえる鐘が聞こえる
ぬくもりも悲しも
分かち合えるこの夜に
重ね合う心は輝き
白く永遠に
White world
一人きりでは抱けない夢を
君に学んで抱きしめている
Aaa...
I'm waiting for you
会いたくて会いたくて
瞳閉じて君を見る
粉雪がつつみこみ
全ての音を無くせば
胸の中に流れる
優しい君の melody
何もかも白く染まるとき
君に捧げよう
White world
君と白く永遠に
