nagai yoru no yami ni yorisoi
konya mo tameiki wa michita
soto wa ame semaru
itoshisa mo taema nai

ikudo to naku mayoeba
munan na kotae kurai
wakatte'ru da kedo mata mayotte
kekkyoku,
tachidomatte bakari

okubyou na unmei ni jibun o
tojikomete ita kokoro ni
saku kodoku no hana o
tsumiagete toozakaru niji no kakera o
ubatte hikitometakatta sukitooru
sora nimanten no hoshi, yume mita

itsu ka wa kiri mo harete
tatoeba mitasarete mo
tonari ni iru no ga anata ja nakya
nan no imi mo nai wa da kara

toomawari shita keredo
omou you ni aruite yukeru
yarikirenu omoi ni

tsuki no te ni samayou
kagayaku mizu, sagashite
toki ni netsu ni unasarete mo

aru hazu no shiawase o
jibun de toozakete ita

toomawari shita keredo

Snuggling up to a long night's darkness,
tonight will be full of sighs again.
It's raining outside.
This pressing love won't stop.

If I wander endlessly I'll
eventually find a safe answer.
But then I'll wander again
and in the end be stuck,
just standing in my tracks.

I had trapped myself in a cowardly fate.
I've just piled up the flowers
of loneliness that bloom in my heart.
I wanted to steal a piece of
a far off rainbow and reign it in.
I dreamt of the clear, star-filled sky.

Even if it's everywhere,
someday the fog will clear away.
If the one by my side isn't you,
then there's no reason to go on, so

I've taken the long path,
but I can walk as I wish.
These thoughts that I couldn't deal
with had got me down, but

I wander by the hand of the moon;
I search for the sparkling waters.
Though I sometimes have feverish nightmares

I had been avoiding the happiness
that I knew was there.
I'll pluck the flowers of
loneliness that bloom in my heart.

I've taken the long path,
but I can walk as I wish.
The rising sun is blindingly bright,
but I open my eyes.

I'll pluck the flowers of loneliness
that bloom in my heart.
