Just sing the lyrics over the song, you'll see what I'm talking about on those particular lines. Especially the oddness of "Arigatou watashi no", there's no way to fit that into the line because there are too many syllables.

A-ri-ga-to-u-wa-ta-shi-no = 9 syllables
That line only contains 8 notes

similarly

A-na-ta-to-o-mo-i = 7 syllables
That line also contains 8 notes
