Distraction
U-KISS Lyrics

Kissをしないか
気まぐれで済まないような
夜を続けないか
夢が醒めてしまわないように
はじめてさこんなDistance
(繋いだ指震えているよ)
心さえ乱される(なぜだろう)
きみが(こんなに)
欲しい(恋に揺れている
優しい眼差しに

悲しい愛情を重ねてる)
You're the only one
(only one only one )
もう離さないから
Let me keep my heart
(little one little one )
ここへおいで

甘い吐息戸惑いも溶かされそうで
そっと囁いた
二人ふと消えてしまいそうだ
満ちてゆく熱いSilence
(猜疑心に両手縛られ)
僕ばかり乱される(何度も)
愛に(こんなに)
堕ちる(触れた肌だけが
憶えた宇宙を
今夜も夢中で探してる)
You're the only one
(only one only one )
もう離さないから
Let me keep my heart
(little one little one )
ここへおいで
こうなるのは Only Lonely
いつだって Rollin'Fallin'
見えない気持ちを繋げたくて
Callin'
ひとりの夜じゃ So Cold
ふたりいられるなら Heart of Mine
Will be Fine これからどこまでも
涙を僕に乾いた砂に落ちる
涙を僕に僕に ...
You're the only one
(only one only one )
もう離さないから
Let me keep my heart
(little one little one )
ここへおいで
そう繋がるよろこび
もう見えない綻びこの広い世界
居場所がない出逢い
信じること捨てて
夢見ること諦めれば
愛を求める絶望はなかった
You're the only one
