真冬      の   海辺  に   映った 白く      透明    な    月   が
mafuyu no umige ni utsutta shiroku toumei na tsuki ga
Reflected on midwinter beach, a crystal white moon
海月     に 見えた 不思議 な  夜     でした
kurage ni mieta   fushigi na yoru deshita
looked like a jellyfish It was quite a strange night
何度    引き 裂かれても   
nando hiki-sakaaretemo 
Even though many times we were forced to be apart, 
遠ざかっても    繋がった     まま    の
toozakattemo tsunagatta mama no
Even though we were in the distance, we were still connected
二人   を    包む       瞼       の  奥   の  宇宙
futari wo tsutsumu mabuta no oku no uchuu
we were embraced in the universe deep inside of our eyes 


星屑         の    中    鏤められた         心     が  二つ
hoshikuzu no naka chiribamerareta kokoro ga futatsu
Two hearts that were scattered in the star dust
愛 の   闇    を 駆け 抜けてく 想い 流星   に  なり
ai no yami wo kake-nuketeku omoi ryusei ni nari
The thoughts running through the darkness of love will become a shooting star
流れて     ゆくよ    君  の  そば   まで 消える 前 に
nagarete yukuyo kimi no soba made  kieru mae ni
and it will flow to you before it disappears
僕     たち  は 同じ  星座  だと 信じて
boku tachi wa onaji seiza dato shinjite
Believing that we are under the same constellation



君    より 綺麗 な 人   でも 君   より   優しい    人   でも
kimi yori kirei na hito demo kimi yori yasashii hito demo
Even though there is someone prettier than you, or more kind than you
君     には なれないんだ もう   誰  も
kimi niwa narenainda     mou dare mo
They can't be you  no on can


掴めない           幻         を 抱きしめた     
tsukamenai maboroshi wo dakishimeta 
As I hold the illusion that I can't grab
胸     を  刺す   痛み  が
mune wo sasu itami ga
The pain that stings my heart
引力      の  ように 二人  引き 寄せ 合う
inryoku no youni   futari hiki-yose au
will draw the two closer like a gravity
まだ 君     の   中 閉じ  込められた いくつも  の   迷い   は
mada kimi no naka toji-komerareta ikutsumo no mayoi wa
Some worries that are still kept inside you
僕     の   中   で 燃やし      尽くせる だから もう  怖がらず     に
boku no naka de moyashi-tsukuseru dakara mou kowagarazu ni 
they can be burned in me so don't be afraid
預けて   ほしい
azukete hoshii
and leave them to me


君     の  嘘  に  気付く   のは 小さな   瞳      が   見  開く    から
kimi no uso ni kizuku nowa chiisana hitomi ga mi-hiraku kara
The reason why I notice your lie is because your little eye will open wider
でも   素直さ  に  まだ 気付けない まま
demo sunaosa ni mada kizukenai mama
But I can't notice your honesty



星屑         の    中    鏤められた         心     が  二つ
hoshikuzu no naka chiribamerareta kokoro ga futatsu
Two hearts that were scattered in the star dust
愛 の   闇    を 駆け 抜けてく 想い 流星   に  なり
ai no yami wo kake-nuketeku omoi ryusei ni nari
The thoughts running through the darkness of love will become a shooting star
流れて     ゆくよ    君  の  そば   まで 消える 前 に
nagarete yukuyo kimi no soba made  kieru mae ni
and it will flow to you before it disappears
僕     たち  は 同じ  星座  だと 信じてる から
boku tachi wa onaji seiza dato shinjiteru kara
Because I believe that we are under the same constellation
