Lyrics
| Japanese | Romaji | English |
| 携帯電話を握り締めたまんまで | keitai denwa o nigirishimeta manma de | Grasping my cell phone tightly |
| かれこれも一時間悩んでいるの | kare kore mou ichi jikan nayande iru no | I worry about this and that for yet another hour. |
| 動作は簡単 ただ指で触れるだけ | dousa wa kantan tada yubi de fureru dake | The action is simple, just pressing with my fingers |
| なのにどうしてそれが出来ないでいるの？ | nani doushite sore ga dekinai de iru no? | but why is it that I can't do that? |
| 昔と比べとスマートなった時代 | mukashi to kurabete sumaato ni natta jidai | Things are smarter these days than they were before. |
| 何もかもがコンパクトに変わっていくの | nani mo kamo ga konpakuto ni kawatte iku no | Just about everything has become compact. |
| だけども恋心はきっといつの時代も | dakedo mou koigokoro wa kitto itsu no jidai mo | But my love, through the ages, remains unchanging. |
| 変わらないまま そう今の私のように | kawaranai mama sou ima no watashi no you ni | Yes, just like me right now. |
| 震える指先が | furueru yubisaki ga | My trembling fingertips |
| 電話番号（パスワード）をなぞってゆく | pasuwaado o nazotte yuku | trace along a phone number (password). |
| どうしよう 気がつけば | doushiyou ki ga tsukeba | What do I do? |
| また夜が明ける... | mata yo ga akeru | Before I know it, dawn has come again... |
| 君へと繋がっていくよ | kimi e to tsunagatte iku yo | I'm being connected to you |
| 助けて！聞こえるコール音 | tasukete! kikoeru kooru on | Save me! I can hear the call ringing |
| 直接言えない私は | chokusetsu ienai watashi wa | I can't say it to you directly |
| 許して 今日こそ伝えるわ | yurushite kyou koso tsutaeru wa | Forgive me, I'll tell you today for sure. |
| なぜ私 勇気出して君にかけたのに | naze watashi yuuki dashite kimi ni kaketa no ni | Even though I showed some courage and called you |
| 雑談でお茶をにごしているのかしらね | zatsudan de ocha o nigoshite iru no kashira ne | I wonder why I'm roiling my tea as we chat?[1] |
| 言葉はもう喉のすぐそこにきてるのに | kotoba wa mou nodo no sugu soko ni kiteru no ni | Even though words are already coming right up my throat, |
| どうして戸惑うの 胸が苦しくなるの | doushite tomadou no mune ga kurushiku naru no | why am I bewildered? My chest hurts |
| そろそろ伝えなきゃ | sorosoro tsutae na kya | I have to tell you soon |
| でもでも...この！意気地なし！ | demo demo...kono! ikujinashi! | but, but...! I'm such a coward! |
| どうしよう 電話代気になってきた | doushiyou denwadai ki ni natte kita | What do I do? I'm worried over a phone call. |
| 時間は限りがあるのよ | jikan wa kagiri ga aru no yo | Time is limited |
| 便利なご時世だけれど | benri na gojusei da keredo | Even though it's so convenient these days |
| 告白だけは簡単にならないの | kokuhaku dake wa kantan ni nara nai no | just confessing won't be easy. |
| あなたが、 | anata ga, | I... |
| ...あなたが好きです | ...anata ga suki desu | I like you. |
| 返事は「考えさせてね」...そうだよね | henji wa kangae sasete ne ...sou da yo ne | You respond, "Let me think about it, okay?" ... That's right. |
| 今度は君から、になるね | kondo wa kimi kara, ni naru ne | This time, it'll be from you |
| 私と同じ 震えてる携帯が | watashi to onaji furueteru keitai ga | Same as me, my cell phone's quivering. |
| 返事を、返事を待ってるの | henji o, henji o matteru no | I am, I'm waiting for your answer. |

Translation Notes
- ↑ When she says she's roiling her tea, it means she's stirring it up so that it's all cloudy. There really isn't a better word for that.
