この地に力を
野に花を 心に愛を…

ねえ この耳を押しあてて聞こえた命のざわめき
そう 覚えてる暖かな鼓動に包まれてたこと

誰かの声も誰かの傷も聞こえないフリをする
そんな醜いカオに騙されないで
今スグに 愛に生きて

この世に生まれて
あなたの目に
何を映して
今 この地に力を
野に花を
心に愛を…

ねえ 傷ついたその羽を癒せる術さえ知らずに
そう どこまでも僕達は歩いて またそれを背負い

どんな時代にも どんな場所でも 確かな愛はある
だから震えることも 嘆き悲しむこともない
愛の中へ

生ぬるい風に
打たれ僕は
何を残して
今 この地に力を
野に花を
心に愛を…
そして

誰かの声も誰かの傷も聞こえないフリをする
そんな醜いカオに騙されないで
今スグに 愛に生きて

この世に生まれて
あなたの目に
何を映して
今 生ぬるい風に
打たれ僕は
何を残して
この地に力を
野に花を
心に愛を…

Every Little Thing

Every Little Thing (エヴリ・リトル・シング), often abbreviated as ELT or elt, is a Japanese pop and soft rock duo who originally debuted as a trio in August of 1996 with the single Feel My Heart. At the time of debut, the members were Mitsuru Igarashi, Kaori Mochida and Ichiro Ito.

The group was originally formed because Mitsuru Igarashi, who was a producer for avex trax at the time, was searching for a female vocalist for a duo. Kaori Mochida, who was a student and former member of the group The Kuro Buta All-Stars, had sent in a demo to Mitsuru and he had been so speechless by Kaori’s vocals, had asked her to join the group he was forming and she willingly accepted. Ichiro Ito on the other hand, was a friend of Mitusuru’s who conveniently, plays the guitar, was asked to help play the guitar for the first single; the track did so well that Ito decided to stay in the group permanently. However, by the time the trio released their third single, Mitsuru had decided to leave in order to produce songs for other artists under avex, and, as such, ELT became a duo, as originally planned.

Since Mitsuru’s departure from the group, ELT continued to release content as a duo and continued to succeed on the charts.
