Lyrics: ayumi hamasaki
Composition: Mayuko Maruyama
Arrangement: Takehito Shimizu & Atsushi Sato

Hey, I've never told you, but
that idealistic room
I've always hated it

A place I belong nowhere for me,
it was a controlled world
one where breathing wasn't allowed

But, I thought if I kept smiling,
I could somehow withstand it
without saddening anyone...

That day I ran away in tears
I was beaten by the rain, alone
not knowing the present
let alone the future

I prayed for just one thing:
I don't want the day to break
I searched, hoping there was a world
where tomorrow didn't come

Now that I think about it, a quiet night
or a night I rolled about in laughter
felt like this

I want to believe
that the day will someday come
when I can say I'm no longer afraid of tomorrow

Things like the phrase "I love you"
Things like just being by someone's side
Things like a moment
when I can forget loneliness

Things like the warmth of joined hands
Things like the kindness of a gaze
You were holding out as hard as you could
everything that I'd forgotten

Things like the phrase "I love you"
Things like just being by someone's side
Things like a moment
when I can forget loneliness

Things like the warmth of joined hands
Things like the kindness of a gaze
You're holding out as hard as you can
everything that I'd forgotten

Nee anata ni iwazu ni ita keredo
