Lyrics: ayumi hamasaki
Music: Yasuhiko Hoshino
Arrangement: Yuuta Nakano

Yesterday I couldn't walk well again
And I flung words around and hurt someone

Today people are talking about me behind my back
And I'm looking down to avoid their cold gazes

Hey, how do you see me?
How do I look in your eyes?
Hey, only you need to tell me the truth
And scold me when I'm wrong

I want you to just stay, just stay there
Never changing, just as you are
I can never change
And have an awkward smile, but let me stay, let me stay by you

Can I have a little hope for me tomorrow?
I'll strongly raise the corners of my mouth

Hey, am I still a joke?
Is it still not enough?
Hey, only you can show me the truth
And laugh it off, saying I'm silly

Do you still remember
The dreams we talked about that night?
Not a single one has faded even now
They're still vivid, ruling my heart

Hey, I want to be praised only by you
Even if others reject me

I want you to just stay, just stay there
Never changing, just as you are
I can never change
And have an awkward smile, but by your side...

Hey, I know that in truth
You too are not that strong
There's nothing that I can do for you
But I'm always embracing your heart

beloved

Kinou no boku wa mata umaku arukenakute
Kotoba furimawashite dareka wo kizutsuketa yo

Kyou no boku wa soshite ushiroyubi wo sasarete
Tsumetai shisen sakeru you ni utsumuite iru yo

Nee donna fuu ni mieteru?
Donna fuu ni utsutteru?
Nee anata dake wa hontou wo kikasete

Itsumademo kawaranai anata no mama de
Tada soko ni soko ni ite hoshii
Itsumademo kawarenai boku no manma de
Gikochinai egao dakedo soba ni soba ni isasete

Nee anata dake wa shinjitsu wo misete

Itsumademo kawaranai anata no mama de
Tada soko ni soko ni ite hoshii

Nee anata mo hontou wa sonna ni tsuyoku

Boku ga shite agerareru koto nante nanimo
Nai keredo sono kokoro itsumo dakishimetemasu
