[Verse 1]
背中向けて 氣のないふりで
Senaka mukete ki no nai furi de
Our back to me, casually ignoring me
I want you, I want you
なるべく遠くで 見つめるだけで
Narubeku touku de mitsumeru dake de
Staring into the distance
I need you, I need you
どうして素直に生きちゃいけないの
Doushite sunao ni ikicha ikenai no
Why can't you be honest with me?
泣くのはきっと簡單ね
Naku no wa kitto kantan ne
My tears fall so easily
想いのままに傳えられない
Omoi no mama ni tsutae rarenai
I can't read your mind
苦しめたくない
Kurushimetakunai
I don't want this to hurt
[Pre-Chorus 1]
朝に目覺める そんな風に
Asa ni mezameru sonna fuuni
I wake up in the morning
夜には眠る そんな風に
Yoru ni wa nemuru sonna fuuni
But it feels like I'm still sleeping
Oh I want you to call my name
Thinking about you everyday
あなたのそばにいれたら
Anata no soba ni iretara
I want to be beside you
願い續ける
Negai tsuzukeru
I keep wishing
[Chorus]
Vanilla, Vanilla
Vanilla, Vanilla
哀しいほどに
Kanashii hodo ni
I'm so lonely
甘く甘く香る花
Amaku amaku kaoru hana
Sweet, sweet scented flower
綺麗でしょ
Kireidesho
Isn't it so pretty
哀しいほどに
Kanashii hodo ni
I'm so lonely
[Verse 2]
あなたはきっと 全部わかってる
Anata wa kitto zenbu wakatteru
I'm sure you know everything
だからこそずっと
Dakarakoso zutto going through
That's why I'm so nervous
Going through (Going through)
どうしても抑えきれない氣持ち
Doushitemo osae kirenai kimochi
Feelings I can't control
吐き出してしまったら
Hakidashite shimattara
I can't just spit them out
今よりもっと辛くなること
Ima yori motto tsuraku naru koto
It would be harder than it is now
知っているから
Shitte irukara
Because we both know
[Pre-Chorus 2]
夢の中なら許してね
Yume no naka nara yurushite ne
I'm in a dream, please forgive me
心の中は許してね
Kokoro no naka wa yurushite ne
Inside my heart, please forgive me
Oh I want you to call my name
Thinking about you everyday
あなたのそばにおいてね
Anata no soba ni oite ne
To be by your side
願い協えて
Negai kanaete
That's my wish
[Chorus]
Vanilla, Vanilla
Vanilla, Vanilla
哀しいほどに
Kanashii hodo ni
I'm lonely without you
甘く甘く香る花
Amaku amaku kaoru hana
Sweet, sweet scented flower
綺麗でしょ
Kireidesho
Isn't it so pretty
哀しいほどに
Kanashii hodo ni
I'm lonely without you
[Bridge]
枯れることはない
Kareru koto wa nai
Never wither away
美しいままで(美しいままで)
Utsukushii mama de (Utsukushi mama made)
Stay beautiful (Stay beautiful)
美しいままで
Utsukushii mama de
Stay beautiful
見つめていたいの
Mitsumeteitai no
I want to look at you
はじまりはしない(My babe)
Hajimari wa shinai (My babe)
This is not the beginning (My babe)
この物語は戀は 愛は
Kono monogatari wa koi wa ai wa
This story is about love
そう終わることはない
Sou owaru koto wanai
So it never ends

Thinking about you everyday
想いが生きた證に
Omoi ga ikita akashi ni
Proof of my thoughts
あなたに贈る
Anata ni okuru
I give it to you
