Lyrics

Rōmaji

Kotae nakute mo ii sa sagashi tsuzukeru n da yo
Sou otona ni naru jikan da ne
Imasugu tsugetai kedo furue ga tomaranai
Kokoro wa ima sara nigete to sakebu no sa

By my side by my side

Tatoeba anata no me no oku ni motomeru keshiki ga aru no nara
Sore wo tsukande tashikametai n da
Moshi kimi no namida ga kono sekai wo kimi kara toozaketa toshitemo
Boku wa sono te hanasanai n da

Dakara sou ima

I need you here right by my side

By my side

答えなくてもいいさ 探し続けるんだよ
そう大人になる時間だね
今すぐつげたいけど 震えが止まらない
心は今更逃げてと叫ぶのさ

バイマイサイド バイマイサイド

例えばあなたの眼の奥に 求める景色があるのなら
それを掴んで確かめたいんだ
もし君の涙がこの世界を 君から遠ざけたとしても
僕はその手 離さないんだ

だから そう 今

I need you here right by my side

Kanji (Full Version)

答えなくてもいいさ 探し続けるんだよ
そう 大人になる時間だね
今すぐ告げたいけど
震えが止まらない
心は今更逃げてと叫ぶのさ

バイマイサイド バイマイサイド

例えばあなたの眼の奥に 求める景色があるのなら
それを掴んで確かめたいんだ
もし例えば僕がこの旅路で 立ちすくむことがあるのなら
必要なのは確かに感じる その手だから
I need you here right by my side バイマイサイド

答え ありがとうね
君が景色も変えたんだ
この星に生まれた意味
解けてゆく気がしたよ

バイマイサイド バイマイサイド

僕の心の深い場所に いつも君の場所があるから
きっと今もわかるはずなんだ
もし君の涙がこの世界を 君から遠ざけたとしても
僕はその手 離さないんだ
だから そう 今
I need you here right by my side バイマイサイド

僕のそばにいてくれ
永遠に手を握って
バイマイサイド

English

I will also continue to look for an answer
It's about time I become an adult
But I can't stop shaking
The tears of your heart want to escape now

By my side… by my side…

If there was a scenery where you could find the other side of your eyes
I would hold on to it to make sure…
…we can get away from the world and even from your tears
And even then I wouldn't release your hands

That's why right now

I need you here right by my side

By my side…

English (Full Version)

It's okay if you don't have an answer; just keep searching for it.
That's right, it is time for us to act like adults.
I wish to tell you this right away,
but my trembling wouldn't stop,
and my heart, with the worst timing, is now screaming at me to run away.

By my side. By my side.

If the scenery I'm looking for is in the depths of your eyes,
I wish to seize it and check it out myself.
If on my journey I would stand still stupefied from time to time,
all I will need is the unmistakable feeling of your hand.
I need you here right by my side. By my side.

Thank you, for your answer.
You have changed the scenery.
I felt that I would finally be able to understand
the meaning of my being born onto this planet.

By my side. By my side.

Deep inside my heart, there will always be a place for you.
I'm sure we both know this even now.
Even if your tears were to take you farther away from this world,
I would never let go of your hand.
So yes, right now,
I need you here right by my side. By my side.

Please stay by my side.
Always keep my hand gripped in yours,
by my side.
