Lyrics

The following are the romaji lyrics and their English translation of be your girl as seen at the conclusion of Elfen Lied:

Japanese script

Baby I wanna be your girl.
Baby all I need is you.
あんなにも傍にいても
こんなにも愛されても
時間は味方してくれずに
あなたの彼女になれない。
あたし、それでもいいって何度も想った。
あなたを誰かとシェアしているけれど。
それじゃ嫌だって何度も泣いてる。
嘘でも気休めでも、ね、お願い。
あたしの中はあなただけ。
愛しているのはあたしだけって言って。

Romaji

Baby I wanna be your girl.
Baby all I need is you.
Anna ni mo soba ni ite mo
Konna ni mo ai sarete mo
Jikan wa mikata shite kurezu ni
Anata no kanojo ni narenai.
Atashi, soredemo iitte nando mo omotta.
Anata wo dare ka to SHEA shite iru keredo.
Sore ja iya datte nando mo naiteru.
Uso demo kiyasume demo, ne, onegai.
Atashi no naka wa anata dake.
Aishite iru no wa atashi dakette itte.

Translation

Baby I wanna be your girl.
Baby all I need is you.
Even if you're like that, right by my side
Even if I'm like this, loved by you
Without time on my side
I can't become your girlfriend
Even so, I've thought many times that it would be okay.
However, I'm sharing you with someone
And I've cried so many times because I hate it.
Even if it's a lie or a word of consolation, please say it anyway.
You're the only one in my mind.
Please say that I'm the only one you love.
