[English]

It feels like just another meaningless night

But you and the endless sparkles remain

It feels like just another meaningless night

But you and the endless sparkles remain

Ah

It stopped again

The ticking of the clock

I'm not usually one to be picky

But nothing changes

This room hasn't changed either

I remembered the two of us

Growing older together

Ah

It stopped again

The needle dropping on the record

We played it so often

It's unchanged, even though I've heard it too many times

Please don't change

You are the only thing I've gained

Ah

With silly conversations

Lend me your past

The more I reach out, the more I hesitate

Stepping in place

The needles we carried

Slowly began to align

My breath...

It feels like just another meaningless night

But you and the endless sparkles remain

It feels like just another meaningless night

Let's carve out this time together

Forever

Wow

The days that passed

Under the bright sunlight

That smile

Your innocent face hasn't changed at all

Please don't change

All I have is this moment

Ah

The more I look at you, the more memories overflow

Coffee for my restless heart

Even the scent lingering in this full room

Let's paint a picture together

Just

One more time

It feels like just another meaningless night

But you and the endless sparkles remain

It feels like just another meaningless night

Let's carve out this time together

Forever

The night is long

I can't settle down

Music that makes the distance between us seem to stop

I want to be with you

I want to drown in this feeling

Even if tomorrow never comes

I don't really care

It feels like just another meaningless night

But you and the endless sparkles remain

It feels like just another meaningless night

Let's carve out this time together

Forever

It feels like just another meaningless night

But you and the endless sparkles remain

It feels like just another meaningless night

Let's carve out this time together

Forever

It feels like just another meaningless night

But you and the endless sparkles remain

It feels like just another meaningless night

Let's carve out this time together

Oh, oh

It feels like just another meaningless night

But you and the endless sparkles remain

It feels like just another meaningless night

Let's carve out this time together

Yeah

[Japanese]

どうでもいいような夜だけど

とめどなく煌めきと君も

どうでもいいような夜だけど

とめどなく煌めきと君も

あー

また止まった

刻む針も

選り好みはしないけれど

変わらない

部屋も変わらないね

思い出したのは2人

年を重ねてた

あー

また止まった

落とす針を

良く流した

聞き飽きるほど変わらないね

変わらないで

得られるのは君だけだ

あー

馬鹿話で

過去を貸して

触れた先をためらふほどに

足踏みして

連れた針を

そろり始めってた

息が

どうでもいいような夜だけど

とめどなく煌めきと君も

どうでもいいような夜だけど

2人刻もう

ずっと

Wow

過ぎ去った

白日など

その笑った

無邪気な顔も変わらないね

変わらないで

得られるのは今だけだ

あー

見つめるほどに溢れるメモリー

浮つく心にコーヒーを

満たされた部屋に擦れた香りも

2人描こう

もう

一度

どうでもいいような夜だけど

とめどなく煌めきと君も

どうでもいいような夜だけど

2人刻もう

ずっと

夜は長い

落ち着かない

距離も止まりそうなミュージック

君といたい

溺れてたい

明日が来なくたって

どうでもいいの

どうでもいいような夜だけど

とめどなく煌めきと君も

どうでもいいような夜だけど

2人刻もう

ずっと

どうでもいいような夜だけど

とめどなく煌めきと君も

どうでもいいような夜だけど

2人刻もう

ずっと

どうでもいいような夜だけど

とめどなく煌めきと君も

どうでもいいような夜だけど

2人刻もう

Oh, oh

どうでもいいような夜だけど

とめどなく煌めきと君も

どうでもいいような夜だけど

2人刻もう

Yeah
