恋綴り 涙 風に揺れて

貴方を想って胸が鳴く

Thinking of you makes my heart race

二人 永遠(とわ)に 導いて

Guiding us to forever, together

今すぐ隣(そば)へ…

Right now, by my side...

晴れている空なのに

Even though the sky is clear

雨が今肩を叩くよ

Rain is tapping on my shoulder now

居場所探す悲しみが

The sadness of searching for a place to belong

泣き出したせいかな

Is it because I started to cry?

瞳閉じれば (いつでも)

When I close my eyes (anytime)

貴方の鼓動が響いてる

Your heartbeat echoes inside me

触れる指先 (頬伝って)

Fingertips that touch (across my cheek)

孤独を溶かしてゆく

Melt away my loneliness

恋焦がれ 空を 儚く舞う

Longing for love, the sky dances transiently

この想いが零れぬ様に

So that these feelings don't spill over

轍(わだち)照らす 月明り

Lit by the moonlight shining on the trail

今 何処へ行こう

Where should I go now?

永遠の愛と引き換えに

In exchange for eternal love

全てを投げ出してもいいから

I’d throw everything away if I have to

孤独 終わらせに行こう

Let’s go to end this loneliness

切なさや運命を

To overcome sadness and fate

越える為 名前を叫んだ

I shouted my name to break through

居場所なら其処にあると

If there's a place to belong, it's right there

陽だまりに咲いた花

A flower blooming in the sunlight

Every time the night comes (anytime)

自分が消えてしまわぬ様に

I fear disappearing myself

照らす行き先 (結び合って)

Illuminating my destination (connected)

The path we've tied won’t come undone...

絡まる糸を解いて行く

Unraveling the tangled threads

一人が二人に変わる

One becomes two, a heart transformed

心の隙間は

Gaps in our hearts

互いが埋めるから

Are filled by each other

涙の傘になろう…

Let’s become tears' umbrella...

恋慕う 願い 風に揺れて

Longing love, swaying in the wind

So that this feeling won't spill out

Loving thoughts guide me

今 何処へ行こう

Where should I go now?
