Lyrics

Game Size

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

Long Version

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

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
