Lyrics
いつでも側にいること 普通に感じてたけど
もっと大事にしよう
夢見て笑っていよう 失いたくない
友達だよ La la la la...Forever!
同じ経験してきたから
同じくらい大人に近づく
それはずっと続くはずさ...
確かめたいのに どうなんだろうわからないんだよ
変わらないと 信じていても
少しだけ寂しい気持ちがしのび込んだ
横顔見つめていたら
いつでも側にいること 普通に感じてたけど (La la la la)
もしかしたら明日は違う道の一歩
いつでも側にいること 普通に感じてたんだ (いつでも)
もっと大事にしよう
失いたくない この手を離さないで
友達だよ La la la la...Forever!
強いふりをしてみたから
強くなれた共にがんばったね
ひとりじゃないって嬉しい気分
悩みがあっても聞いてくれて 助かってたんだよ
変わらないで 願う想い
僕だけのわがままなのかな?
だけどずっと一緒がいいんだずっと...
夢見て笑って泣いて 過ごした日々よ輝け (La la la la)
どんな宝石よりもまぶしい宝物さ
夢見て笑って泣いて 過ごした日々の愛しさ (夢見て)
もっと重ねてみたい
次はなにを目指そう? 決めてないけど
友達だよ La la la la...Forever!
今だけだと言わないでよ永遠だよ
今だけだと言わないでよ Wow wow
夢を見ていたい共に
夢を見ていたいね 笑って泣いて...Ah!
いつでも側にいること 普通に感じてたけど (La la la la)
もしかしたら明日は違う道の一歩
いつでも側にいること 普通に感じてたんだ (いつでも)
もっと大事にしよう
失いたくない この手を離さないで
今だけだと言わないでよ永遠だよ
今だけだと言わないでよ Wow wow
友達だよ La la la la...Forever!

The way you’re always here by my side is something I’ve thought of as a regular thing,
But I’ll cherish it more.
Let’s dream and laugh – I don’t want to lose that.
We’re friends. La la la la… Forever!
As we share the same experiences,
We take the same steps toward adulthood.
Things will keep going that way forever, I expect…
I want to find out for sure, but I don’t really know how.
Even if I have faith that things won’t change,
Just a little bit of loneliness crept in
When I was watching the profile of your face.
The way you’re always here by my side is something I’ve thought of as a regular thing, (La la la la)
But tomorrow just might hold one step down a different road.
The way you’re always here by my side is something I’ve thought of as a regular thing, (Always…)
But I’ll cherish it more.
I don’t want to lose you – don’t let go of my hand.
We’re friends. La la la la… Forever!
I tried to pretend I was strong,
So I actually became strong – we’ve tried so hard together.
Not being alone is a happy feeling.
You’ve listened to me in times of worry – you’ve saved me.
Inside, I wish that things won’t change.
Is that just me being selfish?
But it would really be great if we could stay together, on and on…
Dreaming, laughing, crying – let those days we spent together shine bright. (La la la la)
They’re a treasure more radiant than any precious stones.
Dreaming, laughing, crying – those days we spent together are so dear to me. (Dreaming…)
I’d like to add on even more,
Though we haven’t decided what we should aim for next.
We’re friends. La la la la… Forever!
Don’t say that it’s just for now – this is eternal.
Don’t say that it’s just for now – wow, wow…
I want to see the dream, together with you.
I want to see the dream, to laugh and cry… Ah!
The way you’re always here by my side is something I’ve thought of as a regular thing, (La la la la)
But tomorrow just might hold one step down a different road.
The way you’re always here by my side is something I’ve thought of as a regular thing, (Always…)
But I’ll cherish it more.
I don’t want to lose you – don’t let go of my hand.
Don’t say that it’s just for now – this is eternal.
Don’t say that it’s just for now – wow, wow…
We’re friends. La la la la… Forever!
