白黒だったこの街に
カラースプレー塗り
移りゆく人の波に
自分重ねて

何を求めているのか
ありもしない答え
泣き出しそうな心を
勇気づけてるだけ

強がることばかりじゃない
今なら 優しくなれるから

感じるまま 翼広げ
この地球(ほし)のかなた
きっと強い力
奇跡だって起こせるよ
大きな夢追いかける
変わらぬ想いを
深呼吸して輝き続けて
Never Stop!

孤独というカゴの中で
うずくまっていたね
行方も解からないまま
1人ぼっちで

意味もない ため息だけ
積もっていったね
いつも変わらないリズム
ただ繰り返すだけ

扉はいつも開いてた
だけどね 飛ぶこと迷ってた

思い切って はばたこうよ
この時代(とき)の中で
どんな嵐だって
怖くはない だいじょうぶ
広い大地 駆けめぐる
今日の風に乗り
深呼吸して 両手を広げて
Never Stop!

感じるまま 翼広げ
この地球(ほし)のかなた
きっと強い力
奇跡だって起こせるよ
大きな夢追いかける
変わらぬ想いを
深呼吸して輝き続けて
Never Stop!

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.
