Japanese

散る花に重ね映した　終のない行方　結ぶ朱
届かない距離と知っても　惹かれるは運命

触れるたび　惑う指先　確かめる気持ち　離さない
陽が分かつ時が来るまで　奏でだす調べ

立ち止まる　瞳閉じて　ひとり　しずか
見つめても　すれ違う　繋がる明日の先
このまま　あなたと　ひそか

満ちかける月の巡りに　繰り返す迷いきりがない
咲く夢に群れ飛ぶ胡蝶　見失う標

舞う雪の姿にも似て　溶けてゆく刹那　このこころ
解き放つ想い　夜空へ　二度とふりかえらない

Romaji

chiru hana ni kasane utsushita tsui no nai yukue musubu aka
todokanai kyori to shittemo hikareru wa sadame

furerutabi madou yubisaki tashikameru kimochi hanasanai
hi ga wakatsu toki ga kiru made kanadedasu shirabe

tachidomaru hitomi tojite hitori shizuka
mitsumete mo sure chigau tsunagaru ashita no saki
konomama anata to hisoka

michikakeru tsuki no meguri ni kurikaesu mayoi kiri ga nai
saku yume ni mure tobu kochou miushinau shirube

mau yuki no sugata ni mo nite tokete yuku setsuna kono kokoro
tokihanatsu omoi yozora he nidoto furikaeranai

Long Version

Japanese

散る花に重ね映した　終のない行方　結ぶ朱
届かない距離と知っても　惹かれるは運命
触れるたび　惑う指先　確かめる気持ち　話さない
陽が分つ時が来るまで　奏でだす調べ

立ち止まる　瞳閉じて　ひとり　しずか
見つめても　すれ違う　繋がる明日の先
このまま　あなたと　ひそか

夜を待つ　影をほどいて　歩き出すいつか　ひとりだけ
追いかけぬ　去り行く背中　おもいだす夕べ
満ちかける月の巡りに　繰り返す迷いきりがない
咲く夢に群れ飛ぶ胡蝶　　見失う標

水鏡　うつるすがた　過去も嘘も
にじませる　青い雨　すべてを流しゆく
見つめる　思いは　はるか

重ね合うためらいの海　浮かんでは消える　夜花火
唇がつたえる熱に　心凍るは　何故
触れるたび　惑う指先　確かめる気持ち　話さない
陽が分つ時が来るまで　奏でだす調べ

めぐりあう　甘い夢に　こぼれる雫

散る花に重ね映した　終のない行方　結ぶ朱
届かない距離と知っても　惹かれるは運命

舞う雪の姿にも似て　落けてゆく刹那　ひとひらの
解き放つ思い　夜空に　此処より彼方へ

English

Casting a shadow, those flowers fall into pile with no end to their whereabouts,
bearing that scarlet colour
I know they will fail to reach that distance, withering is their destiny
Each time your puzzling fingers touch me, I have to check those feelings without speaking
Until I understand that the light will come, play that melody

Standing still. Closed eyes. I'm alone. It's peaceful.
I watch intently, we miss each other - connected by the future tomorrow
As it is, you're a secret.

I wait for the night, the shadow unraveling. As I walk out, in due time I'm on my own.
I'll chase after you after you leave with your back to me. I'll recall last night
with the waxing, cyclic moon; repeating bewilderingly with no end.
As blooming dreams cluster around a soaring butterfly, I lose sight of the mark

The reflective water surface projects my appearance, the previous days, those lies too.
Blotted out by the blue rain, everything sinks
I gaze intently at my remote thoughts

As they pile up into a sea of hesitation which I float upon, that extinguish the evening fireworks
Your lips bequeath a fever that makes my heart freeze, why is this?
Each time your puzzling fingers touch me, I have to check those feelings without speaking
Until I understand that the light will come, play that melody

Our chance meeting was like a sweet dream as those drops overflow.

Casting a shadow, those flowers fall into pile with no end to their whereabouts,
bearing that scarlet colour
I know they will fail to reach that distance, withering is their destiny

The dancing snow resembles your shape, I slip in that moment as the petals
release my thoughts into the night sky. From here to over there.
