鏡の中の目をじっと見つめるように
不思議 おかしな世界に迷い込んだ
君はだれ
何のため
ここに「いる」ってこと
ほんとの場所はどこなの
謎は続く
とおい宇宙は色を手に入れて
追いかけても届かないもの
ぼくが住んでるのは
お月様じゃない
だけど決め付けるのも
違うのかも
太陽に恋する 花綺麗で悲しくなる
ゆっくりと覗いたよ ふわふわのしっぽから
うみ かぜ そら あお
くも とり はね しろ
ぼくにも不思議な手紙が来るかな
もう二度とない
時間にさよなら
今の願いを込めて
Romaji
kagami no naka no me wo jitto mitsumeru you ni
ushigi okashi na sekai ni mayoikonda
kimi wa dare
nani no tame
koko ni "iru" tte koto
honto no basho wa doko na no
nazo wa tsuzuku
tooi sora wa iro wo te ni irete
oikakete mo todokanai mono
boku ga sunderu no wa
otsukisama janai
dakedo kimetsukeru no mo
chigau no kamo
taiyou ni koi suru hana kirei de kanashiku naru
yukkuri to nozoita yo fuwafuwa no shippo kara
umi kaze sora ao
kumo tori hane shiro
boku ni mo fushigina tegami ga kuru kana
mou nido to nai
jikan ni sayonara
ima no negai wo komete

I stare intently at the eyes in the mirror
Lost in a strange, mysterious world
Who are you?
Why are you?
Why are you “here”? they ask
Where am I really?
The mystery continues
I take the colours from the distant sky
I keep chasing but I just can’t reach it
The place where I live
Has no moon
But I’ve decided
That’s not quite right
The flowers who love the sun become beautifully sad
I slowly peeked out from the soft tail
Ocean, wind, blue sky
Clouds, birds, white feathers
I’ve been mailed another strange letter
Well, it won’t happen again
Goodbye, time
I will surround myself in my wishes

鏡の中の目をじっと見つめるように
不思議 おかしな世界に迷い込んだ
君はだれ
何のため
ここに「いる」ってこと
ほんとの場所はどこなの
謎は続く
とおい宇宙は色を手に入れて
追いかけても届かないもの
かたちを気ままに変える雲をつかまえて
不思議 おかしなかけらを胸に抱いた
君は何
だれのため
今も「いる」ってこと
ほんとの場所を目指すの
謎は続く
染まる宇宙は永遠に繰り返す
透明にはかえられないもの
ぼくが住んでるのは
お月様じゃない
だけど決め付けるのも
違うのかも
太陽に恋する 花綺麗で悲しくなる
ゆっくりと覗いたよ ふわふわのしっぽから
うみ かぜ そら あお
くも とり はね しろ
うみ とり はね しろ
くも かぜ はね あお
