Dream☆
きっともうすぐほら
見えてなかったモノに出逢えるはず
Love Song♡
きっと今からそう
アナタだけに想いを声にして

Everyday Everywhere
ココロに虹をかけて
七色のMELDOY
どこまでも空高く
Everyday Everytime
ココロに響かせて
優しいHARMONY
いつまでも愛を込めて

Everyday Everywhere
Make sure of LOVE again
そのたびキモチ伝えてこの歌で
Everyday Everytime
アナタへ届けるよ
恋するRHYTHM
いつまでも鳴り続けて

The original version of the song, "CANDY", debuted on DDRMAX DanceDanceRevolution and was entirely instrumental. The song's fun combination of pop, rock and a fast-paced tempo gets a new sugar coating with cute Japanese pop styled vocals.
