“好き”のたね | "Suki" no tane | The Seed of "I Love You"

恋は握力の問題

アーオアー…

握りしめた掌(てのひら)を
君の前で開いてみる
曲げた指先　伸ばし
見せてあげる

何もそこにはなくて
戸惑ってしまうだろう
大事にして来た　見えないもの
確かにあるんだ

そう　ただのただの“好き”のたね
今はまだまだ　ただのたね
芽　芽　芽　芽が出るか　花が咲くか
恋になるか
簡単に“好き”と言えないよ
僕はそんな軽くない
ちゃんと　土の中で育てたいんだ
そしていつかは実になれ！
君のことが好きだ

アーオアー…

君は自分の掌(てのひら)を
僕にそっと重ねながら
指と指とを合わせ
微笑みかける

私だって前から
握りしめていたんだよ
君から突然　言われたこと
意外な告白

そう　そんなそんな“好き”のたね
まさか持ってた　そんなたね
だ　だ　だ　抱きしめて　瞳閉じて
口づけたい
お互いに“好き”になるなんて
奇跡的なタイミング
ずっと　離さないで握っていた
誰も知らないこの恋
僕のことが好きか？

そう　ただのただの“好き”のたね
今はまだまだ　ただのたね
芽　芽　芽　芽が出るか　花が咲くか
恋になるか
簡単に“好き”と言えないよ
僕はそんな軽くない
ちゃんと　土の中で育てたいんだ
そしていつかは実になれ！
君のことが好きだ

アーオアー…

“好き”を握りしめて行こう

Aaooaa…

I’ll open before your eyes
This tightly closed fist of mine
Spreading my crooked fingers wide
I’ll show you what’s there

I’m sure you’ll be bewildered to see
That nothing at all is there
But the invisible thing I’ve been keeping safe
Definitely does exist

Yes, it’s just what you’d call a seed of “I love you”
Though for now it’s nothing but a seed
A sprout sprout sprout may sprout and a flower may bloom
Which might turn into love
I can’t say “I love you” so easily to someone
It’s not something I take so lightly
That’s why I’ll plant it and give it proper care
So that someday it’ll become a sprout!
Because I care about you

Aaooaa…

As you move your own hand
To softly overlap with mine
Our fingers meet each other
And you smile at me

For a long time before this
I’d been holding onto that seed
Then you suddenly surprised me
With a confession of your own

Yes, that singular seed of “I love you”
I couldn’t believe you were holding one too
Hold hold hold me, with our eyes closed
I just want to kiss you
That we both had seeds of “I love you”
Was nothing short of miraculous timing
Always in my hand, I never let it go
A love no one else knew about
Can it be true that you love me?

Yes, it’s just what you’d call a seed of “I love you”
Though for now it’s nothing but a seed
A sprout sprout sprout may sprout and a flower may bloom
Which might turn into love
I can’t say “I love you” so easily to someone
It’s not something I take so lightly
That’s why I’ll plant it and give it proper care
So that someday it’ll become a sprout!
Because I care about you

Aaooaa…

I’ll keep holding on to “I love you”
