[English]

You were pretty like a flower

I remember the color

Violet

I believed that we were forever

Every day is falling apart (I'm so painful)

My heart trying to prevent from being destroyed

Was deeply broken

When I look at you carelessly

I thought you looked like me

Even if time goes by, spring, summer, autumn and winter

I thought they won't change

You were perfect I didn't deserve you

I was greedy

I kept you in my heart

Will my longing for you disappear?

If I turn back time Yeah

Could I prevent this?

The whole world was in your color

I don't want to make those days bygone

You were pretty like a flower

I remember the color

I want to go back

To the time where you were

I won't forget you

Violet

I'm not sad because

I straightforwardly said good bye

How would I know the sad language of rose?

Red for love Blue for miracle If it's the color for eternity, it's Violet

But it's withered

It's meaningless

Maybe are you too (hurt?) Yeah

If you're regretting

The whole world was in your color

Will those days be bygone?

You were pretty like a flower

I remember the color

I want to go back

To the time where you were

I won't forget you

(It's Yuto)

Pouring rain Overflowing thoughts

Your voice is lingering in my ears

Love story has ended

The world of two with lingering love

This moment of letting go of your hands (I'm afraid)

Forever only you

I think you'll disappear

On the day I fell in love with you

I still remember the scenery

I want to go back

To the time where you were

Violet

Violet Violet Violet Violet

I won't forget you
