Lyrics
Japanese
愛のためにもう一度 今 枯れそうな夢 水をあげよう 信じられるもの一つだけ あればそれだけで大丈夫 流した涙 あきらめた事 全部右ポケットに入れて 隠してたのに 君はいつでも気付いていたんだね 瞳閉じれば あの夕焼け空 温もりは 消えないよ どんな時だって君の笑顔 この心ずっと照らして くれるから 愛のために 歩いてゆこう 心に咲いた 花を守ろう 大切なもの たったひとつだけ あればそれだけで生きてゆけるから ただ愛のために。

Video Production Information
Hitomi Yokoyama (Usagi:oh)
This was my second production in this series, and I had a lot of fun with it. When I received the song, I decided to make her a girl who works hard! So, I dug up memories of hard work and decided to make her a girl who works hard at baseball.
About my baseball history, the balls were either softballs or softballs, and the rules were rather vague. I had no athletic ability and was pretty shabby at the game, so everyone took various warm measures, such as asking me not to strike out...
I wasn't very active in baseball, but I was glad to have her do well in the clip.
