(Where you are)
(Near or far)
ki ni naru noni kikenai
oyogitsukarete kimi made mukuchi ni naru
aitai no ni mienai nami ni osarete
mata sukoshi tooku naru
togirenai you ni keep it going, baby
onaji kimochi ja nai nara tell me
muri wa shinai shugi demo
sukoshi nara shite mitemo ii yo
I wanna be with you now
futari de distance chijimete
I'ma nara maniau kara
We can start over
hitotsu ni wa narenai
I wanna be with you now
itsu no hi ka distance mo
dakishimerareru you ni nareru yo
We can start sooner
yappari I wanna be with you
hitokoto de konna ni mo kizutsuku kimi wa
kodoku wo oshiete kureru
mamorenai toki keep on trying, baby
yakusoku toori ja nai kedo trust me
muri wa shinai shugi demo
kimi to narashite mitemo ii yo
I wanna be with you now
futari de distance mitsumete
I'ma nara maniau kara
We can start over
kotoba de tsutaetai
I wanna be with you now
sono uchi ni distance mo
dakishimerareru you ni nareru yo
We should stay together
yappari I wanna be with you
With you right here, right
(I wanna be with you now)
I wanna be with you, I wanna be with you and that is all I want, yeah
'Cause I know this can't be forever
(I know this can't be forever)
(We can start over, just you and me)
We can start all over
(I wanna be with you now)
I wanna be with you right now, baby, that is all I want, yeah
'Cause I know this can't be forever
we should stay together just you and me
I wanna be with you
Nobody but you in my life
Keep it going
(I wanna be with you now)
Keep it going, don't stop
Don't you ever let me go
Keep it going, don't stop
Keep it going
(I wanna be with you now)
Baby
We can start just you and me, baby
