Lyrics[]

Japanese (日本語歌詞)	Romaji (ローマ字)
さよならはあなたから言った	sayonara wa anata kara itta
それなのに頬を濡らしてしまうの	sore nano ni hoo o nurashite shimau no
そうやって昨日の事も消してしまうなら	sou yatte kinou no koto mo keshite shimau nara
もういいよ　笑って	mou ii yo waratte

花束を抱えて歩いた	hanataba o kakaete aruita
意味もなく	imi mo naku
ただ街を見下ろした	tada machi o mioroshita
こうやって理想の縁に心を置き去っていく	kou yatte risou no fuchi ni kokoro o okisatte iku
もういいか	mou ii ka

空っぽでいよう　それでいつか	karappo de iyou sorede itsuka
深い青で満たしたのならどうだろう	fukai ao de mitashita no nara dou darou
こんな風に悩めるのかな	konna fuu ni nayameru no kana

愛を謳って謳って雲の上	ai o utatte uttate kumo no ue
濁りきっては見えないや	nigori kitte wa mienai ya
嫌嫌嫌遠く描いてた日々を	iya iya iya tooku egaiteta hibi o
語って語って夜の群れ	katatte katatte yoru no mure
いがみ合ってきりがないな	igamiatte kiri ga nai na
否否否笑い合ってさよなら	ina ina ina waraiatte sayonara

朝焼けとあなたの溜息	asayake to anata no tameiki
この街は僕等の夢を見てる	kono machi wa bokura no yume o miteru
今日だって互いの事を忘れていくんだね	kyou datte tagai no koto o wasurete ikun da ne
ねえ　そうでしょ	nee sou desho

黙っていよう　それでいつか	damatte iyou sorede itsuka
苛まれたとしても	sainamareta to shite mo
別に良いんだよ	betsuni iin da yo
こんな憂いも意味があるなら	konna urei mo imi ga aru nara

恋と飾って　飾って　静かな方へ	koi to kazatte kazatte shizuka na hou e
汚れきった言葉を	yogore kitta kotoba wo
今今今　「此処には誰もいない」「ええ、そうね」	ima ima ima koko ni wa dare mo inai ee sou ne
混ざって　混ざって二人の果て	mazatte mazatte futari no hate
譲り合って何もないな	yuzuri atte nani mo nai na
否否否　痛みだって教えて	ina ina ina itami datte oshiete

きっときっとわかっていた	kitto kitto wakatte ita
騙し合うなんて馬鹿らしいよな	damashiau nante bakarashii yo na
ずっとずっと迷っていた	zutto zutto mayotte ita
ほらね　僕等は変われない	hora ne bokura wa kawarenai
そうだろう	sou darou
互いのせいで今があるのに	tagai no sei de ima ga aru no ni

愛を謳って謳って雲の上	ai o utatte utatte kumo no ue
濁りきっては見えないや	nigori kitte wa mienai ya
嫌嫌嫌　日に日に増えていた後悔を	iya iya iya hi ni hi ni fuete ita koukai o
語って語って夜の群れ	katatte katatte yoru no mure
許し合って意味もないな	yurushi atte imi mo nai na
否否否	ina ina ina
愛を謳って謳って雲の上	ai o utatte utatte kumo no ue
語って語って夜の群れ	katatte katatte yoru no mure
哂い合ってさよなら	warai atte sayonara
