Now, just now I know that I'm happy
because you're here with me
You, just you is what I really need
and all the other thought means nothing to me
'Love' is the word I really need
because all the other word means nothing to me
'Love' is the word I really need
because all the other words just make me tell lies
By my side, by my side, by my side, stay by my side, by my side
Stay by my side, by my side, by my side, stay by my side by my side
Now, just now I know that I'm lonely
because you're away from me
You, about you, about me is about you and I'll repeat the same
verses over and over and over again until you're back to me
'Love' is the word I really need
so all of these affections need a place where to go
'Love' is the word I really need
so please will you come back
By my side, by my side, by my side, stay by my side, by my side
Stay by my side, by my side, by my side, stay by my side by my side
流るる意志を以て 動かぬ意味を越え
僕には二つ心臓がある 君を思うと動き出すのが…
By my side, by my side, by my side, stay by my side, by my side
By my side, by my side, by my side, stay by my side, by my side
Stay by my side, by my side, by my side, stay by my side by my side…
You told me that you're mine and you always kissed me instead of 'Hi'/but this doesn't mean that I'm head over toes in with you, whatever/You used to beg me hug and you used to play me tricks and all those hugs and tricks we shared is now what we call a broken dreams/I hate myself when my brain tells me that I'm lying that everything we went through was just a waste of a time/so I'm writing this for you and I'm writing this for me within full of thanks and tears, and a pair of ring full of 'I love you'/this song will almost end but that doesn't mean us too/well, just in case someday you come to me and says 'Hi'
