わかってるんだよ
本当は全部
君の疲れた顔も
無理してる笑顔も
「ありがとう」
その五文字だけで
救われることも
ちゃんと知ってる
だけど仕事だとか
忙しいだとか
そんな言葉に隠れて
今日もまた
伝えられないまま
ソファで眠るふりをした
本当はもっと
寄り添いたいのに
不器用なまま
今日も終わっていく
ねぇ
あと少しだけ
君に優しくできたなら
ねぇ
あと少しだけ
君の話を聞けたなら
僕らはきっと
こんな遠回りしなかった
「正しさ」より
思いやりだった
どうしてなんだろう
外ではあんなに
優しい人なのに
コンビニの店員さんにも
同僚にも
笑顔で話せるのに
私には その優しさを
少しも見せてくれない
洗濯も 片付けも
名前のない家事も
当たり前みたいに
今日も終わっていく
見返りなんて 欲しいわけじゃない
少しくらい 気づいてほしいだけ
ねぇ
あと少しだけ
私を見てくれたなら
ねぇ
あと少しだけ
話を聞いてくれたなら
私たちはきっと
こんな涙を流さなかった
「正しさ」より
思いやりだった
君も苦しかったんだね
僕も苦しかったんだ
戦ってた場所が
違っただけなのかな
敵じゃないのに
どうして僕らは
傷つけ合ったんだろう
ねぇ
あと少しだけ
お互いに寄り添えたなら
ねぇ
あと少しだけ
言葉を交わせたなら
僕らはもっと
笑い合えていたのかな
ありがとうも
おつかれさまも
照れずに言えたなら
「正しさ」より
思いやりだった
それが愛なんだね
いま いまいま
気づけて良かったね
ねぇ
あと少しだけ
ねぇ
あと少しだけ
ありがとう

The Five Letters (feat. SENA)
SHUGA
**"The Five Letters"**
"Thank you" such a simple phrase, yet why is it often so difficult to say?
In the busyness of everyday life and the comfort of routine, we sometimes lose sight of the gratitude we hold for the people who matter most. Even when two people truly care for each other, misunderstandings grow, feelings get hurt, and honest words become harder to express.
"The Five Letters" is an emotional duet R&B ballad by SHUGA feat. SENA, told through both the male and female perspectives.
As their thoughts and emotions intertwine, they eventually arrive at a simple yet powerful truth:
**"Kindness matters more than being right."**
SHUGA's warm and comforting vocals blend beautifully with SENA's delicate, transparent voice, gently portraying the emotional distance that can arise between lovers and married couples.
If only we could say "thank you" and "you've worked hard" a little more often, without hesitation...
Wrapped in heartfelt lyrics and a warm melody, this song captures the regrets, tenderness, and quiet love that everyone experiences at some point in life.
A heartfelt message from SHUGA feat. SENA a song to listen to while thinking of someone truly precious to you.
