不安になるよ
何をするにも
歩き続けてゆくなら

踏み出すことの勇気が
希望の道になる

幸せになる
そう決めたから
もう迷わない

負けないよ
ふりしぼるように
涙が明日を輝かすから
素直でいたいと
信じ続けてる
想いが
明日を変えてゆくから

物語はほら
ここから始まる

降りだした雨
悲しみのように
この心に染みてゆく

失うことで気付いた
大切な時間を

ひとり寂しい静かな夜に
抱きしめてた

意地悪な風が吹いたって
あなたがくれた強さがあった
心の奥で優しさになって
今の私を支えてるから

物語をほら
描き続けてく

幸せになる
そう決めたから
もう迷わない

負けないよ
ふりしぼるように
涙が明日を輝かすから
素直でいたいと
信じ続けてる
想いが
明日を変えてゆくから

物語はほら
ここから始まる

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.
