Manatsu no hoteru de
Kizuita sono manazashi wa
Yashi no ki no komorebi
Mitai ni mabushikatta
Sugu kimi to wakatta yo
Kono mune ni nokoru itami ni
Wakasugita futari ni wa
Te ni oenakute
Moeagarou moeagarou
Omoide no honoo wa kesenai yo
Wasuretenai wasuretenai
Me wo tojireba ano hi no kimi ga iru
Nagasugita ano bakansu ni
Kisu made jouzu ni natte ita
Hazushita daiya no piasu ga monoroogu
Are kara ikutsu no koishite kita no darou
Namaiki na iikata mo
Kami wo kakiageru shigusa mo
Itooshii kuchibiru mo
Ah- kawattenai
Takamarou ze takamarou ze
Jounetsu no kodou ni aorarete
Dakishimetai dakishimetai
Toki ga sugite otona no kimi ga iru
Guuzen ga settingu shita
Konya no deai wa abunai ne
Romansu no nokoribi ga
Jerashii no kaze ni fukarete
Kono karada sukoshi zutsu
Tobihi shite yuku
Moeagarou moeagarou
Omoide no honoo wa kesenai yo
Wasuretenai wasuretenai
Me wo tojireba ano hi no kimi ga iru
Mou ichido mou ichido
Meguriatta sono imi shinjitai
Ima dattara ima dattara
Miushinatta sadame ga wakaru hazu
Hajime kara yarinaoshi
Subete wo sutesari ritaan macchi
Hajimete no koi no you ni
Yoake ga kuru made ritaan macchi
