Lyrics:

[日本語]

[English]

さよならはあなたから言った

Goodbye, you said it first

それなのに頬を濡らしてしまうの

Yet I find myself crying on my own

そうやって昨日の事も

If that's how you'll erase

消してしまうなら

Even yesterday's memories

もういいよ　笑って

Then it's fine, just smile

花束を抱えて歩いた　意味もなく

Walking with a bouquet in my arms, without meaning

ただ街を見下ろした

Just gazing down at the city

こうやって理想の縁に

Opening my heart along this ideal edge

心を置き去っていく

Leaving my feelings behind

もういいか

Is it okay now?

空っぽでいよう　それでいつか

Let's stay empty inside, maybe someday

深い青で満たしたのならどうだろう

If I fill it with deep blue, how would that feel?

こんな風に悩めるのかな

Can I worry like this?

愛を謳って　謳って　雲の上

Singing of love, singing, above the clouds

濁りきっては見えないや

So clouded, I can't see through

嫌　嫌　遠く描いていた日々を

No, no, I want to draw those distant days

語って　語って　夜の群れ

Talking, talking, about the night flock

いがみ合ってきりがないな

Fighting endlessly, it never ends

否　否　笑い合ってさよなら

No, no, let’s smile and say goodbye

朝焼けとあなたの溜息

Morning glow and your sighs

この街は僕等の夢を見てる

This town is dreaming of us

今日だって互いの事を

Even today, we forget each other

忘れていくんだね

Yeah, that's right

ねえ　そうでしょ

Let’s stay silent, maybe someday

黙っていよう　それでいつか

Even if hurt by it, it’s okay

苛まれたとしても　別に良いんだよ

If these sorrows have a meaning

こんな憂いも意味があるなら

Love, love, toward the calm

恋と飾って　飾って　静かな方へ

Dirty words now

汚れきった言葉を

Now, now, "No one’s here"

今　今　「此処には誰もいない」

Yes, that’s right

「ええ、そうね」

Blending, blending, to the ends of us

混ざって　混ざって　二人の果て

Compromising, nothing remains

譲り合って何もないな

No, no, pain too, tell me

否　否　痛みだって教えて

Surely, surely, I knew

きっと　きっと　わかっていた

It’s stupid to deceive each other

騙し合うなんて馬鹿らしいよな

We’ve been lost in doubt

ずっと迷っていた

See, we can’t change

ほらね　僕等は変われない

That’s right

そうだろう

Because of each other, we are here now

互いのせいで　今があるのに

That’s right

愛を謳って　謳って　雲の上

Singing of love, singing, above the clouds

濁りきっては見えないや

So clouded, I can't see through

嫌　嫌　日に日に増えていた後悔を

No, no, regrets growing day by day

語って　語って　夜の群れ

Talking, talking, about the night flock

許し合って意味もないな

Forgiving, it’s meaningless

否　否

No, no

愛を謳って　謳って　雲の上

Singing of love, singing, above the clouds

語って　語って　夜の群れ

Talking, talking, about the night flock

笑い合ってさよなら

Smiling and saying goodbye

...

...
