Only in the morning upside down after moonlight
Furuboketa keshiki de watashi wa me ga sameta
Soko ni aru no wa tada hitotsu no kosatsu dake
Moshi negau no naraba kanaetekureru kana
Watashi no kono omoi todokanai omoi wo
(only in the morning upside) kotoba mo kawasezu
(only in the morning upside) toki wa nagasareteta
(only in the morning upside) shizun’da kokoro no
(only in the morning upside) toki wa ugokanai
(only in the morning upside) aketeku yoru wa naku
(only in the morning upside) ima demo kono mama
Kidzukanai keredo kyou mo naiteita
Kanaetemoraeru koto nado nai no ni
Kanawazu todokazu
Toki wa wazuka demo kizan’deiru no
Nani mo kawaranai you ni mietemo
Mawari no keshiki wa kawatteyuku no
Watashi no kokoro ashibumi shiteru
Yume no kakera sae te ni irerarezu
Asa wo motometa sou itsu made mo
Mata kiritsuketeta jibun’ no kokoro
Dekinai hazu to wakatteitemo
Only in the morning upside down after moonlight
Furuboketa kosatsu wa watashi ni toikakeru
“hito tayoru mono ni omoi wa aru no ka” to
Negai wa omoi da to tayoru dake na no nara
“soko ni aru no wa tada hitotsu no nukegara” to
(only in the morning upside) kotoba ga wakarazu
(only in the morning upside) ima mo kawarazu ni
(only in the morning upside) shizun’da omoi wa
(only in the morning upside) toki wa kizamenai
(only in the morning upside) aketeku yoru wa naku
(only in the morning upside) ima demo kono mama
Wakatteita no ni nani mo ienakute
Tada tachitsukushita nani mo dekinakute
Watashi no omoi wa?
Yume wa wazuka demo mirereba ii no
Son’na koto sae wakaranai mama
Jibun’ no keshiki wa kawaranai mama
Tada jikan’ dake ga yukkuri susumu
Omoi kimochi dake tsuyoi hazu da to
Ii kikasete wa tada nigeteita
Kidzuite wa itemo ugokenai mama
Mada yami no naka sakura sakazu
Only in the morning upside down after moonlight
