Lyrics

Japanese

I wanna be a pop star 君をもっと夢中にさせてあげるからね
キラキラのpop star 羽根を広げ魔法をかけてあげよう君だけに

君に出会えた喜びと君に会えない淋しさの
両方を手に入れて恋は走り出す
空も飛べない僕だけど 孤独を謳う夜だけど
その頬に 微笑みを与えられたなら
初めて君を抱きしめた瞬間に
神様が僕に下した使命は君だけのヒーロー

I wanna be a pop star 君をもっと夢中にさせてあげるからね
キラキラのpop star 羽根を広げ 魔法をかけてあげよう
I wanna be a pop star 君をぎゅっと 抱きしめてあげるからおいで
キラキラのpop star 羽根を広げ 魔法をかけてあげよう 君だけに
