Lyrics

Japanese

SHA LA LA いつかきっと 僕は手にするんだ
はかなき 胸に そっと ひかり 燃えていけ

逢いたくなるの｢衝動｣ 哭きたくなるの｢純情｣
夏の火に飛び込んだ ホタルはかえらない

あなたは何も言わず接吻を残して
火傷つくまま うなづいたね
哀しいほど命 揺らめいていた

SHA LA LA いつかきっと 僕は手にするんだ
はかなき 胸に そっと ひかり 燃えていけ
SHA LA LA 愛しきひと あなたもみえているの
まばゆい 月が そっと 明日を照らして
強く 強く 輝いて

Romaji

SHA LA LA itsuka kitto boku wa te ni surunda
hakanaki mune ni sotto hikari moete ike
			
aitaku naru no "shoudou" nakitaku naru no "junjou"
natsu no hi ni tobikonda hotaru wa kaeranai
			
anata wa nanimo iwazu kuchidzuke wo nokoshite
kizu tsuku mama unadzuita ne
kanashii hodo inochi yurameite ita
			
SHA LA LA itsuka kitto boku wa te ni surun da
hakanaki mune ni sotto hikari moete ike
SHA LA LA itoshiki hito anata mo miete iru no
mabayui tsuki ga sotto ashita wo terashite
tsuyoku tsuyoku kagayaite
