Japanese

誰よりも　いつまでも　愛すコト決めたから
今　２人だけの世界へ　DIVE TO THE NIGHT!

ずっと待ってるの
今日はTEL(デンワ)しないの！
真夜中の声に逢えないなら
夢で逢わせて！

「今すぐ迎えに来て！」なんて
素直に言えなくて
でもぶつけたい
ありのまま
このキモチすべて

誰よりも　いつまでも　愛すコト決めたから
今　２人だけの世界へ　DIVE TO THE NIGHT!

(say you love me, baby)

暗闇に輝いた２つの星になりたい
今　夜に逆らってゆく。。。　あの星みたいに

誰よりも　いつまでも　アナタと生きてゆきたい
あの星に届くように　DIVE TO THE NIGHT!

DIVE TO THE NIGHT!!

Romaji

dare yori mo itsumademo aisu koto kimeta kara
ima futari dake no sekai he DIVE TO THE NIGHT!

zutto matteru no
kyou wa denwa shinaino!
mayonaka no koe ni aenai nara
yume de awasete!

"ima sugu mukae kite!" nante
sunao ni ienakute
demo butsuketai
ari no mama
kono kimochi subete

dare yori mo itsumademo aisu koto kimeta kara
ima futari dake no sekai e DIVE TO THE NIGHT!

(say you love me, baby)

kurayami ni kagayaita futatsu no hoshi ni naritai
ima yoru ni sakaratteyuku... ano hikari mitai ni

dare yori mo itsu made mo anata to ikiteyukitai
ano hoshi ni todoku youni DIVE TO THE NIGHT!

DIVE TO THE NIGHT!!

Song Production Information

NAOKI

This is a game-sized version of the coupling track of Riyu Kosaka's debut maxi single "true...".

It's a HYPER ROCK BEAT song that mixes the rough and ready vocals of a teenager with an upper beat and guitar sound, which is a direct match for Kosaka's material, having the staff debating whether or not to release this song as the single front until the very end.

Staff Comments

Octoman

I wanted it to feel like "flying off into the night" as the lyrics suggest...
It's like a summer bug flying into the fire.
I wish I could have made it a little more transparent~.

RICE.C

I was careful to make the atmosphere somewhat similar to that of the MAX version of DIVE, but not the same production.
