Senaka ni mimi wo pitto tsukete Dakishimeta
(I hold my ear to your back and hold you)
Kyoukaisen mitaina karada gajama dane
(My body hinders me like a border line)
Dokka icchaisou nanosa
(I feel so uneasy that you might disappear)
Damatteruto chigire sou dakara kon-na kimnochi
(My feelings drive me crazy if I keep them inside)
Hankei san meter inaino sekiaide motto hittsuite tainosa
(I always want to be close to you, even if the world were 3 meters across)
Kawaribanko de pedal wokoide
(Let's take turns pedaling) 
Djigino himawaritorui koshite
(Passing over bowing sunflowers)
Gungun kaze wo nomikonde so tobe soujan
(Fiding on the wind so I can fly)
Hajimete kanjita kimi no taion
(First time I felt your temperature)
Dare yorimo tsuyoku naritai
(I want to be stronger than anyone else)
Attakai Rhythm
(With warm rhythm)
Niko no shinzou ga kuttsuiteku
(Two hearts beat as one)
Kuchibiru to kuchibiru me to me to te to te
(Lip to lip, eye to eye, hand in hand)
Kamisama wa nanimo kinshi nanka shitenai
(God doesn't forbid anything)
Aishiteru
(I love you)
Aishiteru
(I love you)
Aishiteru
(I love you)
Atashi mada korite nai otona ja waken nai
(I'm not experienced yet an adult wouldn't get it)
Kurushikute setsunakute
(It's so painful, distressing)
Misetakute panku shichau
(I wanna show my feelings its almost exploding)
Soppo muite matteru kara
(I'll be waiting, turned the other way)
Poke no mayotteru te de hoppe ni furete
(So touch my cheeks with your trembling hand in front of your pockets)
Koi shiteru chikara nimahou wokakete taiyou ga zutto shizumanai youni
(Cast spell on my loving heart, so the Sun never sets.)
