“Sorry… sorry” you say,

Baby, don't say that anymore.

With those lips, dyed in passion,

Hurry up and kill me.

I'll be okay,

But look at me one last time.

When I want to see you,

So I can gently draw that smile.

...

I can't let you go,

Always with someone like me,

Were you in pain?

Tell me.

I'm such an idiot,

I can't erase you,

Even though you're not here anymore.

...

Your Oh eyes, nose, and lips too,

The small hands I gently touched,

I still feel them.

...

Like a flame burned black and fell,

Because our love is too painful, now,

I'm calling out to you.

...

Although I loved you,

You're not here anymore.

Even if it's by chance, just one more time,

I wonder if I can see you.

You in the photo,

You're smiling beautifully, but

Everything about you, along with the sand in the clock,

Is spilling away.

...

I can't let you go,

Always with someone like me,

Were you in pain?

Tell me.

I'm such an idiot,

I can't erase you,

Even though you're not here anymore.

...

Your Oh eyes, nose, and lips too,

The small hands I gently touched,

I still feel them.

...

Like a flame burned black and fell,

Because our love is too painful, now,

I'm calling out to you.

...

The eyes that only looked at me,

The lovely mole on your nose,

I love you, I love you,

Those lips whispering...

...

Your Oh eyes, nose, and lips too,

The small hands I gently touched,

I still feel them.

...

Like a flame burned black and fell,

Because our love is too painful, now,

I'm calling out to you.

...

「ゴメン…ゴメンね」って

Baby もう言わないで

情熱に染まるその唇で

早く殺して

僕なら大丈夫だよ

でも最後に見つめてよ

キミに逢いたい そんな時に

その笑顔を そっと描けるように

キミを離せるわけない

こんな僕にずっと

苦しい思いしてたの

教えてくれよ

バカだよな

キミが消せない

もう居ないのに

キミの Oh 目・鼻・口も

そっと触れた小さな手

未だに感じてるのに

炎が 黒く焼け落ちたように

僕らの愛 辛すぎるから 今

君を呼んでるよ

愛していたけど

もう君はいない

偶然でもいい もう一度だけ

逢えないかな

写真の中のキミ

美しく笑ってるけど

キミの全てが 時計の砂と共に

零れ落ちてゆくんだ

キミを離せるわけない

こんな僕にずっと

苦しい思いしてたの

教えてくれよ

バカだよな

キミが消せない

もう居ないのに

キミの Oh 目 鼻 口も

そっと触れた小さな手

未だに感じてるのに

炎が 黒く焼け落ちたように

僕らの愛 辛すぎるから 今

君を呼んでるよ

僕だけ見つめた瞳も

愛しいホクロの鼻も

サランヘ サランヘ

囁く その唇も…

キミの Oh 目 鼻 口も

そっと触れた小さな手

未だに感じてるのに

炎が 黒く焼け落ちたように

僕らの愛 辛すぎるから 今

君を呼んでるよ
