[English]

I’ll stay by your side as your lifelong regret.

Q. What’s the most important thing to you?

A. What you just lost.

You made a mistake with me.

There’s no turning back now.

In sickness and in health,

through all the messy history, we’ll always be together!

[Japanese]

あなたの一生の後悔として添い遂げるよ

Q. 大切なものって、なあに？

A. 今失くしたそれ

あたしと間違いを犯しちゃったんだ

取り返しがつかないね

健やかなるときも病める時も

グロい履歴の中でずうっといっしょ！
