欲しがるほど 遠くなる
愛はそんなもんじゃないさ、知ってる?
誰かの手を待つより先に
自分の手を差し出す意味
Love ain’t something you take
It’s the fire that you make
Gotta give it, live it, feel it real —
That’s how broken hearts heal
(No doubt, no fake, just give love)
Yeah — love ain't a currency, don't trade it
No receipt, just believe and create it
求めすぎた時 見失った
でも与えた瞬間 光が差した
Peace in the pain, grace in the fall
Standing tall, when you give it all
“愛されたい”って叫ぶ前に
“愛してる”って声にしてみ
Love ain’t something you take
It’s the fire that you make
Gotta give it, live it, feel it real —
That’s how broken hearts heal
(No doubt, no fake, just give love)
奪うより 満たすこと
欲よりも 光をもっと
Not about what you get —
It’s the love you reflect
So I give love, even when I’m low
'Cause that's the only way to grow
君に届け この flow
愛は回るよ、そう、無限の glow
Love ain’t something you take
Love ain’t something you take
Love ain’t something you take
It’s the fire that you make
Gotta give it, live it, feel it real —
That’s how broken hearts heal
(No doubt, no fake, just give love)
(No doubt, no fake, just give love)
(No doubt, no fake, just give love)
