何度も 愛のコトバ言わないで
たやすく愛の中に 逃げないで

カタチにする度
大切なものを 失くす気がするよ
たぶん足りないなにかを
確かめたがる弱さが
キミを遠ざけている…そんな気がして

かけがいのない夢だよね
忘れないで To be for you
ゆずれないもの 追いかけて生きる
きっと誰もかわれない
たった一人の君に逢いたいよ

どうしていまふたりでいるのかな
どうして抱きしめたりするのかな

噂を聞いたり
すれ違う夜は 不安になるけど
それは自信がないから?
だからケンカするのかな
そんな切ない想い 大事にしたい

たとえば遠く離れても
忘れないよ To be for me
抱きしめたこの想いを信じて
きっと誰もかわれない
たった一人のわたしに逢いたい

勇気を出して
もう一度 その未来を信じて
生まれ変われる だから逃げないよ
ここにいるよ 歩き出す
たった一人の君に逢うために

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.
