Japanischer Text in Kanji I need more affection than you know 思い出せば遙か遙か 未来は I need more affection than you know どこまでも輝いてた きれいな青空の下で 僕らは I need more affection than you know 少しだけ怯えていた 懐かしい色に 窓が染まる 前を向いてればまた会えますか 未来は I need more affection than you know どこへでも続いてるんだ 大きな看板の下で 時代の I need more affection than you know 移ろいを見ていたいな 人知れず My heart's a battleground I need true emotions I need more affection than you know I need true emotions 二度と会えぬ人に場所に 窓を開ける 思い出せば遙か遙か 未来は I need more affection than you know どこまでも輝いてた きれいな青空の下で 僕らは I need more affection than you know いつまでも眠っていた My fears, our lies 青空の下 I need more affection than you know
