昔と変わらない 映画館
初めてのデートで行ったね
今は隣にあなたはいない
モノクロがやけに寂しい

駆け引きだけの恋なんて
映画のシナリオだけでいい

唇と唇が触れ合うたび
ドキドキしてた
何もかも ときめいてた
High School Days

いつの日か あなたと会い
そして あのセリフのように
「ごめんね」たったその一言を
素直に伝えたい

迷い道の出口を探して
お互いすれ違う毎日
「週末の予定は聞かないの?」
交わす言葉はからまわり

月日は気づかずにいつでも
思い出に変えてしまうけど

もう一度あの頃のように
熱く激しくIn your arms
早すぎた別れだから
愛しすぎるよ

もう少し ありのままに
信じあえることできたら
あなたの後ろ姿 見ること
なかったはずだから…

駆け引きだけの恋なんて
映画のシナリオだけでいい

約束の場所へ行くときはいつも
ワクワクしてた
日が暮れること 忘れて
騒いでいたね

いつの日か あなたと会い
そして あのセリフのように
「ごめんね」たったその一言を
素直に伝えたい

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.
