Dear Lady

Dear, Dear, Dear Ladies Day
Dear, Dear, Dear Ladies Day
Dear, Dear, Dear Ladies Day
Dear, Dear, Dear Ladies

Dear Mama
hajime ni kokoro wo
komete iwasete
Dear Papa
watashi wo sodatete kurete arigatou ne
Dear Mama
konogoro kuchi wo kikanakute gomen ne
Dear Mama, dear Papa
wake wa ima ienai no

Dear Mama
Let me begin by saying this
From the bottom of my heart
Dear Papa
Thank you for bringing me up
Dear Mama
I'm sorry you couldn't hear it from me sooner
Dear Mama, dear Papa
I can't tell you the reason why

tada keitai wo nigiri shimeteta
"kyou uchiakeru yo" to itteita kara
chakushin ga nakute tada shinpai de
toki ga nagaku kanjita

I hold on to my phone only because you said
You were going to tell me everything
There's simply no reason to worry about it
It's been a while since I've felt this way

kare wo aishiteiru kimochi mo
kare to kenka shite kita hibi mo
papa to mama wo omou kimochi mo
hanasenai de ita tomadoi mo
junban wa kinishinai seikaku mo
watashi no kakaete iru nayami mo
uchiakete koreta tomodachi damon
wakachiatte sasaeatte kita ne

The feelings of love I felt for him
The quarrels I have with him everyday
Papa and Mama's feelings about it
They were too speechless to speak
Please don't worry about him because
I am the one who should worry
I have friends that I could talk to
Confide in and share my worries with

Dear Ladies
moshimo anata ga mama ni nattara
Dear Ladies
sazukaru inochi ni hokori wo motte ite
Dear Lady
jijitsu wo kakushite shimatta to shite
Dear Lady, dear Lady
haji wo motte ite

Dear Ladies
If you ever become a mother
Dear Ladies
Be proud of the gift of life you carry
Dear Lady
If you should have to hide this truth
Dear Lady
It would be a shame

Dear Lady
dakedo kakushite ita sono jijitsu mo
Dear Lady
yasashii uso mo mata ai nano darou
Dear Lady
koraeru omoi ga mune wo sasu no deshou
Dear Lady, dear Lady
hanashite hoshii yo

Dear Lady
If you however hide this truth
Dear Lady
Love will become a simple lie
Dear Lady
Endure these feelings that pierce your heart
Dear Lady, dear Lady
I want to tell you something

konna bukiyou de muryoku na watashi
ga anata to meguriaeteru kiseki
wakachiaeru yasashisa nukumori
wakeaeru yorokobi ya kanashimi
kitai to mirai to hikari ga sashi
dakedo kokorobosoi no mo genjitsu
nanika attara tasuke ni ikushi
fuan nara watashi mo tsuite ikushi

I was once helpless in this awkward position
But, like you, I came upon a miracle
And I share this tender warmth with you
The happiness and sadness too
Hope for a light to shine upon the future
Because reality is hopeless and lonely
I will help you face your problems
Even if things become uneasy

Dear Lady
moshimo inochi ga hoshi ni nattato shite
Dear Lady
sono ko wo omoi sono ko no tame ni
Dear Lady
mama no anata ga genki de ite hoshii yo
Dear Lady, dear Baby
kanarazu meguriaeru kara

Dear Lady
If life becomes like a star
Dear Lady
Think of the child for the child's sake
Dear Lady
I want you to become a good mother
Dear Lady, dear Baby
You were meant for each other

Dear Mama
futari no koi wo mitomete kuremasu ka
Dear Papa
katamukeru mimi wa soko ni arimasu ka
Dear Mama
sono ude de tsuyoku dakishimerare masuka
Dear Mama, dear Papa
kotaete kure

Dear Mama
Will you approve of both of our love?
Dear Papa
Have you heard a word that I have said?
Dear Mama
Can you hold me tight in your arms?
Dear Mama, dear Papa
Please give me an answer

Dear Mama
saigo ni kokoro wo
komete iwasete
Dear Papa
zutto kuchi wo kikanakatta wake wa
Dear Mama
tada tada sazukatta sono inochi wo
Dear Mama, dear Papa
mamori takatta kara

Dear Mama
Let me end this by saying
From the bottom of my heart
Dear Papa
I couldn't bring myself to say this before but
Dear Mama
I simply wanted to protect
Dear Mama, dear Papa
This life that I created

Dear Mama
Dear Papa
Dear, dear Ladies
Dear Mama
Dear Mama, dear Papa
Dear, dear Ladies
