Japanese Kanji

エリナ　呼ぶだけで　気持ちが安らいでく
どんな音楽家も　その響きに　恋に落ちるよ
調子のいいこと　そうやって笑うの
鮮やかなリバプール　空が高くなる

エリナ　ジョジョ　そこにいる幸せ
雲は誇らしく　風は少し甘く
ジョジョ　エリナ　言葉が足りない
この想い　溢れるよ／溢れるの　ずっと

ひとこと　嬉しいって　聞きたい　君の声で
胸がくすぐったい　あなたは　いけない人
わからないんだけど　君に惹かれるんだ
じゃあ理由をつけて　二人の理由を

手と　手が　触れ合えず迷う
明日へと続く　この小さな勇気

震える心　高鳴り合う　きっと
引き合う　淡く　思いが巡る

引き合う　強く　あなたの
その名前は　ジョナサン・ジョースター

Erina, yobu dake de kimochi ga yasuraideku
Donna ongakuka mo sono hibiki ni koi ni ochiru yo
Chōshi no ī koto sō yatte warau no
Azayaka na Ribapūru sora ga takaku naru

Erina, just calling your name soothes my heart
Any musician would fall in love with its melody
You say such smooth things, and then you laugh like that
The brilliant Liverpool sky stretches higher

Erina, JoJo, soko ni iru shiawase
Kumo wa hokorashiku kaze wa sukoshi amaku
JoJo, Erina, kotoba ga tarinai
Kono omoi afureru yo / afureru no zutto

Erina, JoJo, happiness is being there with you
The clouds stand proud, and the wind feels a little sweet
JoJo, Erina, words aren't enough
These feelings will overflow / may overflow forever

Hitokoto ureshītte kikitai kimi no koe de
Koko ga kusuguttai anata wa ikenai hito
Wakaranain dakedo kimi ni hikarerun da
Jā riyū o tsukete futari no riyū o

I just want to hear one thing, "I'm happy," in your voice
That's so embarrassing, you're such a scoundrel
I don't really understand, but I'm drawn to you
Then let's find a reason, a reason for us both

Te to te ga fureauzu mayō
Ashita e to tsuzuku kono chīsana yūki

These hands, those hands, when they're apart I feel so lost
We'll move towards tomorrow with this small bit of courage

Furueru kokoro takanari au kitto
Hikiau awaku omoi ga meguru

Our hearts are resonating, beating in sync
Drawing us together, our fleeting feelings swirl

Hikiau tsuyoku anata no
Sono namae wa Jonasan Jōsutā

The one I'm so strongly drawn to...
His name is Jonathan Joestar

Fleeting Time <Reprise>

Japanese Kanji

ジョジョ　ジョジョ　聞こえていますか
私の声が　わかるでしょうか
引き合った　鮮やかなひととき
もう一度　あなたの声を

弱い僕だった　君のもとに走れなかった
幼い私だった　あなたに向き合えなかった
変わらない　その声　変わらない　この想い
鮮やかなリバプール　空が高くなる

エリナ　ジョジョ　そこにいる幸せ
雲は誇らしく　風は少し甘く

目と　目が　触れ合えば　そこに
小さな勇気　明日へと続く
手と　手が　触れ合って　そこに
運命が触れ合う　ずっと

いま震える心　重なり合う
引き合う　淡く　あの日の続きを　ふたり

JoJo, JoJo, kikoete imasu ka
Watashi no koe ga wakaru deshou ka
Hikīatta azayaka na hitotoki
Mō ichido anata no koe o

JoJo, JoJo, can you hear me?
Do you recognize my voice?
From that bright, fleeting moment when we were drawn together,
Let me hear your voice once more

Yowai boku datta, kimi no moto ni hashirenakatta
Osanai watashi datta, anata ni mukiaenakatta
Kawaranai sono koe, kawaranai kono omoi
Azayaka na Ribapūru sora ga takaku naru

I was weak back then, I couldn't run to you
I was childish back then, I couldn't face you
Your voice never changed, these feelings never changed
The brilliant Liverpool sky stretches higher

Erina, JoJo, soko ni iru shiawase
Kumo wa hokorashiku kaze wa sukoshi amaku

Erina, JoJo, happiness is being there with you
The clouds stand proud, and the wind feels a little sweet

Me to, me ga, fureau ba soko ni
Chīsana yūki ashita e to tsuzuku
Te to, te ga, fureatte soko ni
Unmei ga fureau zutto

These eyes, those eyes, when they meet
A small bit of courage carries us into tomorrow
These hands, those hands, when they touch
Our fates will intertwine, forever

Ima furueru kokoro kasanari au
Hikiau awaku ano hi no tsuzuki o futari

Now, our resonating hearts beat as one
Continuing from that fleeting day we were drawn together
