何度も汚しては洗っている
シーツみたいな2人の時間に
時に疲れることもあるだろう
せめて小指だけはつないでいよう
 nando mo yogoshite wa aratte iru
 SHIITSU mitai na futari no jikan ni
 toki ni tsukareru koto mo aru darou
 semete koyubi dake wa tsunaide iyou [1]
    When they're soiled, we wash them clean again
    The bedsheets, just like our time with one another
    Sometimes it gets tiring, doesn't it?
    At the very least, let's link our pinkies together. [1]

何があっても愛をあげるなんて
死んでも言わないようなあなたがいい
幻や空っぽの未来より
2人の足跡を眺めていよう
 nani ga attemo ai wo ageru nante
 shindemo iwanai you na anata ga ii
 maboroshi ya karappo no mirai yori
 futari no ashiato wo nagamete iyou
    'No matter what happens, I'll give you my love,'
    Even should you die, I hope you won't ever say that, 
    Rather than illusions or an empty future,
    Let's just gaze at our past footprints together.

Sweet Dreams baby
甘い夢を　baby
私のとなりで　baby
You are safe tonight
 Sweet Dreams baby
 amai yume wo baby
 watashi no tonari de baby
 You are safe tonight
    Sweet Dreams, baby
    Dream easy dreams, baby
    Right next to me, baby
    You are safe tonight

Sweet Dreams baby
甘い夢を　baby
晩安宝貝　baby
Let me sneak into your dreams
 Sweet Dreams baby
 amai yume wo baby
 wan an bao bei baby [2]
 Let me sneak into your dreams
    Sweat Dreams, baby
    Dream easy dreams, baby
    Good night, precious baby [2]
    Let me sneak into your dreams

あなたが退屈しない様に
私は踊り子になるけれど
本当のおもちゃはあなたなの
夢中になって壊しそうになる
 anata ga taikutsu shinai you ni
 watashi wa odoriko ni naru keredo
 hontou no omocha wa anata nano
 muchuu ni natte kowashisou ni naru
    So that you won't get bored
    I'll become a ballerina
    But the real toy here is you
    In a stupor, I almost break you

あたしの指をなめて
この瞳を閉じて
跳ねてみせるからbaby
Stay by my side tonight
 atashi no yubi wo namete
 kono hitomi wo tojite
 hanete miseru kara baby
 Stay by my side tonight
    Brush your tongue over my finger
    And close your eyes
    I'll leap and prance for you, baby
    Stay by my side tonight

Sweet Dreams baby
甘い夢を　baby
晩安宝貝　baby
Let me sneak into your dreams
 Sweet Dreams baby
 amai yume wo baby
 wan an bao bei baby
 Let me sneak into your dreams
    Sweat Dreams, baby
    Dream easy dreams, baby
    Good night, precious baby
    Let me sneak into your dreams
