荒んだ世界に
あなたのような人が
いることに感謝
夢が遠く見えて
肩落とす夜は
電話をさせてよ
恋人ともちがう
大切な心友(ともだち)
代わりのきかない私の相棒
みんなひとりぼっち
探し続けるのは
確かな絆とその証
誰かのひとことで
明日もがんばると
思えるなんてすてきさ
わけもなくふさぎ
プチうつな自分が
嫌いになる日も
あなたの笑顔の
大きな力に
励まされるんだ
どんな強い人も
弱さを隠してる
外には出せない傷抱えながら
みんなひとりぼっち
それを知るからなお
あなたの大事さがわかるよ
心の片すみで
気にかけてくれてる
恋よりも強い味方
Ah たまには私を
Ah 頼ってもいいよ
生まれる時ひとり
最期もまたひとり
だから生きてるあいだだけは
小さなぬくもりや
ふとした 優しさを
求めずにはいられない
Everybody needs to be needed
Everybody wants to be wanted
'Cause everybody knows that we are all alone
Let me give my gratitude to you
For always being there and smile for me
Many many thanks to you, the best friend of mine
Many many thanks to you, the best friend of mine |

Translation
In this wild world
I'm thankful There are people like you
When my dreams seem so distant On nights when my shoulders sink You let me call you
An important friend
That's different from a lover
My irreplaceable companion Everyone's all alone Continuing to search is
Our sure bond as well as proof of it
Someone said that It's beautiful to be able to think
Of persevering tomorrow as well
Obstructions without a cause Even on days that I hate
This slightly depressed me
Your smile's
Great power
Encourages me Even the strongest person
Hides weaknesses While carrying wounds that can't be shown
Everyone's all alone I know that And understand your importance even more
In the corner of your heart You worry for me
A friendship stronger than love
Ah once in a while
Ah you can rely on me, too
Alone when we're born
Alone again when we die
That's why we can't help but want
A little bit of warmth
And unexpected affection
Even if only during the interval when we're living Everybody needs to be needed
Everybody wants to be wanted 'Cause everybody knows that we are all alone Let me give my gratitude to you For always being there and smile for me Many many thanks to you, the best friend of mine Many many thanks to you, the best friend of mine |
