HIRAIDAI brings a heartfelt tune from the album Bokuga Zutto Hoshikatta Mono. Lyricists 平井大 and EIGO write about love that lasts beyond separation, while 平井大 and EIGO also create the gentle melody. The song stars HIRAIDAI as both vocalist and emotional anchor.
The lyrics promise to leave behind letters filled with memories, apologies, and gratitude if parting ever comes. One line says, ‘Living with you in my heart is a thousand times more wonderful.’ The songwriter uses the image of a staircase to show how each day builds on the last, step by step. These physical steps make the love story feel real and lasting.
Tatoeba ashita boku gaIf I were to,

Sonna koto wo shinakucha naranai no naraand if I’m forced to do such a thing,
Anata no jinsei bun nothen for the rest of your life,
Tegami wo kaite nokosu yoI’ll write letters and leave them behind.
