by your side
Mirei Touyama Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

どうせ この世界は
僕が思うよりも残酷で
いつからか期待すること
怖がるようになった

君は こんな世界で
どうして未来を信じられるの?
巻き戻せない時の中で
迷わずに歩けるの?

希望に満ちた明日なんて
くだらないと 吐き捨てていたのに
前向きすぎる君につられて
少し笑えた

ありがとう この胸の中
伝えたい想いに気付いたんだ
ありがとう ほんの少しだけ
君といれば 素直になれる気がした
今は まだうまく言えないよ
簡単なはずなのに

きっと この景色が
僕が思うより 輝くのは
希望の存在を 君が
教えてくれたから

ねえ 聞いて 君と出会えて
初めて気付けた この気持ち
涙は悲しい時じゃなくても
流れること

ありがとう 儚くても
君がいる明日なら信じられた
ありがとう 君を想うほど
伝えたい言葉が 胸を埋める
今なら言える気がするよ
君の隣なら yeah-yeah-yeah

そばに君がいれば 何もいらない
本当に心から思えたよ
ずっと言えなくて 甘えてたけど
今日はもう照れたり
誤魔化したりしないで 歌うよ

ありがとう この胸の中
伝えたい想いに気付いたんだ
ありがとう 儚くても
君がいる明日なら信じられる

ありがとう 大切な人
君となら永遠を 誓えるから
ありがとう ありがとう
君と描く未来を抱きしめて
その笑顔を もっと見ていたいよ
君が好きだから




ずっと僕の隣にいて
君が好きだから

@SY-kd4in

Douse kono sekai wa
boku ga omou yori mo zankoku de
itsuka ra ka kitai suru koto
kowagaru you ni natta

This world is
more cruel than previously thought.
Since when Anticipation
It scares me

kimi wa konna
sekai de doushite mirai o shinjirareru no?
makimodose nai toki no naka de
mayowa zu ni arukeru no?

This world is for you
Why do you still believe in that future?
When walking without a reverse like this
Do you dare to move forward without hesitation?

Kibou ni michi ta ashita nante
kudaranai to hakisute te i ta
noni maemuki sugiru kimi ni tsurare te
sukoshi warae ta

What
I hope for tomorrow, I think it's both silly and ridiculous,
but I met her determined to move forward that much.
Made me laugh a little

arigatou kono mune no naka
tsutae tai omoi ni kizui ta n da
arigatō honno sukoshi dake
kimi to ire ba sunao ni nareru ki ga shi ta
ima wa mada umaku ie nai yo
kantan na hazu na noni

Thank you. From this heart
I'd like to tell this feeling.
Thank you, even just a little.
But just having you around Would like to be honest with myself
Now I still can't speak.
Although it's just a simple matter

kitto kono keshiki ga
boku ga omou yori kagayaku no wa
kibō no sonzai o kimi ga
oshie te kure ta kara

This
view is brighter than I ever thought.
Probably because you taught me
About the hope that exists

nē kii te kimi to deae te
hajimete ki tsuke ta kono kimochi
namida wa kanashii toki ja naku te mo
nagareru koto

Listen, since meeting you
For the first time I was aware of this feeling.
That tears don't flow only when they feel sad

arigatō hakanaku te mo
kimi ga iru ashita nara shinjirare ta
arigatō kimi o omou hodo
tsutae tai kotoba ga mune o umeru
ima nara ieru ki ga suru yo
kimi no tonari nara

Thank you, although not sure.
But with you I can believe in tomorrow.
Thank you. When thinking of you a lot
Would like to say the words in this heart
If there is you beside
I think I can say it now.

soba ni kimi ga ire ba nani mo ira nai
hontōni kokorokara omoe ta yo
zutto ie naku te amaete ta kedo
kyō wa
mō tere tari gomakashi tari shi nai de utau yo

To be by your side Didn't want anything
All this feeling in my heart
Even though I've never spoken it out
Today I won't be shy anymore
I'll cry it out Not obscure anymore

arigatō kono mune no naka
tsutae tai omoi ni kizui ta n da
arigatō hakanaku te mo
kimi ga iru ashita nara shinjirareru

Thank you. From this heart
I'd like to tell this feeling.
Thank you. Although uncertain.
But with you I can believe in tomorrow.

arigatō taisetsu na hito
kimi to nara eien o chikai eru kara
arigatō arigatō
kimi to egaku mirai o dakishime te
sono egao o motto mi te i tai yo
kimi ga suki da kara
zutto boku no tonari ni i te
kimi ga suki da kara

Thank you, the most important person
If living with you May swear eternity.
Thank you. Thank you. Really
want to embrace the future you have drawn with you.
Would like to see more of that smile
Probably because i love you
Stay with me forever
i love you
