Lyrics are from the full version of DEAR MY FRIEND.

Japanese

朝までファーストフードで
みんな たわいもない話
時間が経つのも忘れていたね
共に過ごした日々が懐かしい

いつしか あなたと二人で
会う機会多くなってた
あの時のような気楽な気持ち
どこかに忘れてしまったよね

ずっと かけがえのないもの
安らぎと温もりがある
いつも 居心地のよかった
あの場所へ戻ろうよ
Best Of My Friend

口紅ぐらいはしたけど
「綺麗になったね」突然
どうしたのかな 冗談だよね
マジな顔はあなたに似合わない

すぐムキになって はしゃいで
喧嘩もしたりしたけど
強い絆があったあの頃
これからも友達でいれるかな？

いつか 最高の自分に
生まれ変われる日が来るよ
もっと まっすぐな気持ちに
出会えると信じてる
Best Of My Friend

そう お互いに恋心抱くよりも
解り合える 語り合える
いつまでもそんな仲でいたいよ

ずっと かけがえのないもの
安らぎと温もりがある
いつも 居心地のよかった
あの場所へ戻れるのなら

いつか 最高の自分に
生まれ変われる日が来るよ
きっと 今までの二人に
戻れると信じてる
Best Of My Friend

Romaji

Asa made FAST FOOD de
Minna tawai mo nai hanashi
Toki ga tatsu no mo wasurete ita ne
Tomo ni sugoshita hibi ga natsukashii

Itsu shika anata to futari de
Au kikai ookunatteta
Ano toki no you na kiraku na kimochi
Dokoka ni wasurete shimatta yo ne

Zutto kakegae no nai mono
Yasuragi to nukumori ga aru
Itsumo igokochi no yokatta
Ano basho e modoro yo
Best of my friend

Kuchibeni gurai wa shita kedo
"Kirei ni natta ne" totsuzen
Doushita no kana joudan da yo ne
Maji na kao wa anata ni niawanai

Sugu MUKI ni natte hashaide
Kenka mo shitari shita keredo
Tsuyoi kizuna ga atta ano koro
Kore kara mo tomodachi de ireru kana?

Itsuka saikou no jibun ni
Umarekawareru hi ga kuru yo
Motto massugu na kimochi ni
Deaeru to shinjiteru
Best of my friend

Sou otagai ni koigokoro idaku yori mo
Wakariaeru katariaeru
Itsumademo sonna naka de itai yo

Zutto kakegae no nai mono
Yasuragi to nukumori ga aru
Itsumo igokochi no yokatta
Ano basho e modoreru no nara

Itsuka saikou no jibun ni
Umarekawareru hi ga kuru yo
Kitto ima made no futari ni
Modoreru to shinjiteru 
Best of my friend
