気になるのに聞けない
泳ぎつかれて君まで無口になる

会いたいのに見えない波に押されて
また少し遠くなる

途切れないように keep it going baby
同じ気持ちじゃないならTell me
無理はしない主義でも
少しならしてみてもいいよ

I wanna be with you now
二人でdistance 縮めて
今なら間に合うから
We can start over
ひとつにはなれない
I wanna be with you now
いつの日かdistanceも
抱きしめられるようになれるよ
We can start sooner
やっぱりI wanna be with you

ひとことでこんなにも傷つく君は
孤独を教えてくれる

守れない時 Keep on trying baby
約束通りじゃないけどtrust me
無理はしない主義でも
君とならしてみてもいいよ

I wanna be with you now
二人でdistance見つめて
今なら間に合うから
We can start over
言葉で伝えたい
I wanna be with you now
そのうちにdistanceも
抱きしめられるようになれるよ
We should stay together
やっぱりI wanna be with you

I wanna be with you now
Cuz I know this can't be forever
We can start over just you and me
I wanna be with you now
Cuz I know this can't be forever
We should stay together just you and me
I wanna be with you
