== Lyrics ==
=== Japanese ===
<pre>Yahh! Yahh! Super music start!

君はなんて言う名前なの？ どこかで見た顔かも
特に目立たない それは小さかったから
いつしか色がついて 目に溜まる事が増えた
少し背も伸びた いつか大人になるんだね
美しくなるにつれてその姿に引き寄せられ
本当は知ってたの 小さなあの頃から WOW～

心まで照らしてた 太陽みたいになりたいって
あの頃の君はそう言っていたね
そうさちょっとだけでも 太陽に一歩近づくんだ
眩い光を浴びて生きるまで「ヒマワリ」

季節は過ぎ
巡ってゆく
今日もまた

美しくなった君は
僕の隣で笑いかける 握り締めた手は今も小さいから WOW～

心に照らし出す 瞬きもできないくらい あの頃の君を忘れないように
そうさちょっとだけだけど 太陽に一歩近づけた
眩い愛を与えて生きる君は「ヒマワリ」</pre>
