Japanese

追いかけても 追いかけても するり 指をぬける水のよう 
あなただけに あなただけに 見つめられて 漂う星の影 
夢でもつかまえて

流れる雲に思う 行き先ないこの心 
いつか見た日の明日(あす)も 青い通り雨

色づいた花びら揺らす ぬくもりも激しささえも 
せつなさの裏側だけを 残していくだけの刹那

かなうのなら かなうのなら 駆け出してゆきたい 風の中 
あなただけを あなただけを 見つめたなら 羽ばたく蝶のように 
夢ならみせないで

追いかけても 追いかけても するり 指をぬける水のよう 
わたしだけが わたしだけが 時を止めた闇から 手を伸ばす

かなうのなら かなうのなら 駆け出してゆきたい 風の中 
あなただけに あなただけに こころ巡らす はるか朧月

嘘でも抱きしめて 
夢なら醒めないで

Long Version

Japanese


追いかけても 追いかけても するり 指をぬける水のよう 
あなただけに あなただけに 見つめられて 漂う星の影 
夢でもつかまえて

流れる雲に思う 行き先ないこの心 
いつか見た日の明日(あす)も 青い通り雨

色づいた花びら揺らす ぬくもりも激しささえも 
せつなさの裏側だけを 残していくだけの刹那

かなうのなら かなうのなら 駆け出してゆきたい 風の中 
あなただけを あなただけを 見つめたなら 羽ばたく蝶のように 
夢ならみせないで

星のない夜(よ)に密か 巡る季節を忘れて 
いつかくる日の朝を 隠す涙色

絡む指 艶めく吐息 昇りつめ 堕ちゆく心 
ひと時のぬくもりさえも 忘れられずにまた孤独(ひとり)

追いかけたら 追いかけたら ふわり消えてしまう 月の影 
わたしだけに わたしだけに 触れられたら 煌く星のように 
嘘なら抱きしめて

届くのなら 届くのなら 明日さえ要らない 戻らない 
離れてても 離れてても 心焦がす炎は あなただけ

追いかけても 追いかけても するり 指をぬける水のよう 
わたしだけが わたしだけが 時を止めた闇から 手を伸ばす

かなうのなら かなうのなら 駆け出してゆきたい 風の中 
あなただけに あなただけに こころ巡らす はるか朧月

嘘でも抱きしめて 
夢なら醒めないで
