[Verse 1]
この愛に例えば名前をつけるとしたら
「優しさ」じゃなく「華やか」でもなく
「強さ」とつけるだろう
簡単に倒れない人だと思われたくて
泣く事すらも忘れるくらいに素顔を隠していた

[Pre-Chorus]
だけどあなたは今彷徨っている
出口のないトンネルの中で

[Chorus]
世界一長い夜にも必ず朝は来る
あなたはまた笑うよ
太陽に抱かれて

[Verse 2]
この愛に例えば無くしたものがあるなら
「素直さ」よりも「思いやり」よりも
きっと「情熱」だろう

[Pre-Chorus]
だから私は今凍えている
人生と言う舞台の上で

[Chorus]
世界一長い冬にも必ず春は来る
二人はまた出会うよ
ロマンスに抱かれて
Woah, oh
Oh-oh, yeah

[Bridge]
かすかに揺れる光を冷たい手で包む
始まりはここにある
太陽に抱かれロマンスは目覚め

[Chorus]
世界一長い冬にも必ず春は来る
私は今歌うよ
心に響かせる
終わりのない歌を
始まりのバラード, ooh
