[Verse 1] Nice to meet you Then nice to meet you again Why does “wa” at the end of hello Look like something else instead? There’s no page in the textbook For reading the air in the room I smile while searching For the right polite words to use ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] I can’t say it perfectly But I want you to know Some feelings inside me Don’t need to be translated at all ⸻ [Chorus] I’m still learning Japanese It’s harder than it seems But when you say “It’s okay” You give me strength I need Lost in forests made of kanji Tripping over little words Still I’m moving forward slowly I’m still learning every day ⸻ [Verse 2] What’s the space between “I like you” and “I love you”? And “Please take care of me” Feels deeper than it should Words that float like air Meanings I can’t see Just one single letter Can change everything ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] If I get it wrong Please don’t laugh at me This clumsy little voice Is still a part of me ⸻ [Chorus] I’m still learning Japanese It’s difficult but I care When you say “Do your best” It feels like magic in the air From simple sounds to future dreams It’s okay to go slow If I take one step today That’s enough — I know ⸻ [Bridge] Words aren’t walls They’re bridges we build Someday with this voice I’ll say what I really feel ⸻ [Final Chorus] I’m still learning Japanese I’m unfinished, it’s true But these feelings in my heart Are already real and true Mistakes become my treasures Every long way has a reason Until I can say “thank you” Without fear — I’m still learning
