Lyrics: (Japanese)
Samidare no furu aki no machi kita no hikari
Ookina mado kara mieru umi boku wa hitori
Hirahira to mau chou ga tomatta
Hana no kaben ga chigirete kareta
Dare no mono demo nai hane wo ima hirogete eieie
Ai shiteru nara sayonara sa
Kokoro ni yakitsuke wasurete
(Instrumental solo)
Sakitsuku shita hana no nioi fureru tsumasaki
Chiisana mado kara sasu hikari kimi mo hitori
Yurariyurari nagareru kumo suji
Kaze ni kaben ga fukarete yureta
Dare mo inai hakoniwa kara ima tobidatsu eieie
Shiromi hajimeta kono yoru ni
Maidasu chou ga kage ni naru
(Instrumental solo)
Dare no mono demo nai hana yo tada soko ni are eieie
Aisareru nara asu mo sakou
Kokoro wo yakitsuke utatte
Dare no mono demo nai hane wo ima hirogete eieie
Ai shiteru nara sayonara
Kokoro ni yakitsuke wasurete
Lyrics: (English) (You can sing along! Cover by Zoozbuh)
This town in autumn is a sight to see; the sun and the rain in unity
I marvel at the sea from my window, as I stand inside, all alone
One day I saw a butterfly atop a flower
All its petals withered and, by the darkness, were devoured
You spread your wings and you fly,
even though you know they dont truly belong to you~
If I really love you, I have to let you go
I'll carve your image in my heart so I never ever forget...
(Instrumental solo)
The fragrance of a thousand flowers in full bloom scatters out through the room.
You sit beside me as we both see the sun's rays shining through; a pretty view
Cloudy streaks are forming, and make the sky look menacing
The wind blows so harshly; the flower petals drift away
You stumble into a deserted garden where nobody ever comes to play~
And as the night loses its colour, you will dance
and cast your shadow upon this forsaken land
(Instrumental solo)
Allow a flower to exist, but not be touched, because it is not owned by you~
If it is truly loved then it will surely bloom, tomorrow and every single other day
You spread your wings and you fly,
even though you know they dont truly belong to you
If I really love you, I have to let you go
I'll carve your image in my heart, and so I'm pleading you, please, to forget
