ヒドク曖昧な空
あの頃の僕によく似てる
晴れるわけでもなく
雨が降るわけでもなく
まるで自分のものみたいに
僕を呼ぶ君が好きだった
その瞬間だけは
僕の、
僕だけの君みたいで...

愛するゆえに寂しくなって
ツカエテは 苦しくなって
こんな風でしか君を愛せなくて
本当に、ごめんね

晴れるわけでもない空を
それでも僕は
今日を期待して生きてみる
君が僕にくれたように
僕もまた誰かを
深く愛せますように、と

今になって思えば
君もまた 僕と似ていたね
きっと こんな僕だけに
寂しい思いしただろう...

愛するゆえに気遣い合って
サグッテは 悲しくなって
傷つけあえる程に愛せたなら
変わることあったかな

晴れるわけでもない空を
それでも僕は
今日を期待して生きてみる
不器用ながらも愛した日々が
かすんでしまっても
消えることなんてないから

移り変わってゆく季節があって
僕も少しは変われたかな
何かを見つけられたかな
この空のむこうにある光のように

晴れるわけでもない空を
それでも僕は
今日を期待して生きてみる
君が僕にくれたように
僕もまた誰かを
深く愛せますように、と

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.
