今では本気で
やる気になってる
何しろ 君がそこで
僕をみつめている
おいでよ 素顔のまま
そんな君 抱きたい
僕は本気さ
何げなく 君が云う
「いいわ」と
それが決め手さ
Because of you
君がいる限り
Wow wow because of you
Wow because of you
優しいその手を 僕にあずけたら
黙って 信んじて
くれるだけでいい
例えば 君のために
何でも するだろう
ボクサー、フィクサー、 レーサー
その時チャレンジャー
Because of you
僕は本気さ
何げなく 君が云う
「わかるわ」と
僕の気持を
Because of you
君を愛してる
Wow wow because of you
Wow because of you
君のためになら
何でもするだろう
ボクサー、 フィクサー、レーサー
その時チャレンジャー
Because of you
僕は本気さ 何げなく
君が言う「いいわ」と
それが決め手さ
Because of you
君を愛してる
Wow wow because of you
Wow because of you
The Japanese lyrics of Starlite Ensemble's song "Because of You" talk about being lost in life and making detours, but finding a new sense of purpose and motivation because of the presence of someone important. The singer describes being unable to find their way until this person showed up and looked at them, and then they want to hold them and be with them as their true selves. The chorus repeats the phrase "Because of you" which has become the singer's new reality, a phrase that encapsulates the reason behind their motivation and their love for this person. The singer would do anything for this person, even become a boxer, a fixer, or a racer if that's what it takes to make them happy. In the end, the song repeats the phrase "Because of you" as a declaration of love, a mantra that encapsulates the singer's new sense of purpose and devotion.
Overall, the song "Because of You" is about finding direction and motivation in life because of the presence of someone important who loves and supports us. The lyrics suggest that this person has helped the singer find a new sense of purpose, and that they are willing to do whatever it takes to make this person happy. The repeated phrase "Because of you" acts as a refrain that ties the song together and echoes the singer's gratitude and love for this person.
