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
