Sugu ni koukaishite furihodoita te de
Mou ichido mado wo aketari shite
Boku no fuukeiga, kimi wo egaki-sokoneta mama de
E no gu ga tarinakunatta

Fuzaketa kisetsu ga nagasugite
Kokoro ni saita shiroi hana
Funjatta kedo

‘Ai wo motto, ai wo motto’ tte
Kurayami de zutto kimi no te wo
Sagashiten da
‘Itsuka kitto, itsuka kitto’ tte
Kanashimi wo sotto nomikonde
Utaitain da

Kyuu ni samukunatte hurui MAFURAA
Hippari-dashita, niawanakute hen da
Kimi no tanjoubi, watashi-sobireta tebukuro wa
Doko ka de akushu shiteru darou

Yasashii yoru ga mijikasugite
Tsuki no hikari de saku hana wa
Karechatta kedo

‘Ai wo motto, ai wo motto’ tte
Kurayami de zutto kimi no te wo
Sagashiten da
‘Itsuka kitto, itsuka kitto’ tte
Kanashimi wo sotto nomikonde
Utaitain da

Mukuchi na kaze ga sawagi-dashite
Sabishii boku no niwa ni ima
Ryou-te hirogete kimi ga saiteru

Ai wo shitte, yatto hashitte
Kurayami de gyutto kimi no te wo
Nigiretan da
Konya zenbu, konya zenbu
Kanashimi wo zenbu nomikonde
Waraitain da

Ai wo motto, ai wo motto
I immediately regretted it, letting go of your hands
To open the window again
I ran out of paints
Before I could color you into my life

That dizzy season lasted too long
And though I trampled upon
The white flowers blooming in your heart

‘Love me more, love me more’
I kept reaching for your hand
Through the darkness
‘Someday, surely, someday, surely’
I wish I could quietly swallow my sadness
And just sing

Suddenly it’s cold, I pull out
My old scarf, it looks a little funny
The gloves I never got to give you for your birthday
Are probably shaking hands somewhere

That lovely night was too short
And though the flowers blooming
In the moonlight had withered

‘Love me more, love me more’
I kept reaching for your hand
Through the darkness
‘Someday, surely, someday, surely’
I wish I could quietly swallow my sadness
And just sing

A silent wind began to blow
In my lonely garden
Arms outstretched, you’re blooming

I know love, at I run to you
And at last hold your hands tight
In the darkness
Tonight, all of it, tonight, all of it
I wanted to swallow all my sadness
And just smile

Love me more, love me more
