Mind Forest

こぼれる光の中、戯れる君を見た
揺れる木々の声から微笑みが浮かぶ
壊れて消えた夢をいつまでも追いかけた
しなやかな指先は切なさを運ぶ

帰らぬ時間の永遠の儚さに
手の届かない場所に連れ去られていく
鮮やかに咲いたどんな花よりも
君との思い出が美しくて

どこかで響く鐘の何気ないメロディーが
僕の心の中にそっと呼びかける

(いつまでも側にいるから小さな躯を抱き寄せ
交わした約束の果てに昨日を描いた)

翼を広げ空へ舞い上がる
いくつもの光に導かれながら
遠くで輝くどんな星よりも
君との思い出が美しくて

抱えきれないほどの花束と
二度と触れることのない唇に…

翼を拡げ空へ舞い上がる
いくつもの光に導かれながら
遠くで輝くどんな星よりも
君との思い出が愛しすぎて

koboreru hikari no naka, tawamureru kimi wo mita
yureru kigi no koe kara hohoemi ga ukabu
kowarete kieta yume wo itsumademo oikaketa
shinayakana yubisaki wa setsunasa wo hakobu

kaeranu(jikan) toki no towa no hakanasa ni
te no todokanai basho ni tsuresararete yuku
azayaka ni saita donna hana yori mo
kimi to no omoide wa utsukushikute

dokoka de hibiku kane no nanigenai merodii ga
boku no kokoro no naka ni sotto yobikakeru

(itsumademo soba ni iru kara chiisa na karada wo dakiyose
kawashita yakusoku no hate ni kinou wo egaita)

tsubasa wo hiroge sora e maiagaru
ikutsu mono hikari ni michibikare nagara
tooku de kagayaku donna hoshi yori mo
kimi to no omoide wa utsukushikute

kakaekirenai hodo no hanataba to
nido to fureru koto no nai kuchibiru ni...

tsubasa wo hiroge sora e maiagaru
ikutsu mono hikari ni michibikare nagara
tooku de kagayaku donna hoshi yori mo
kimi to no omoide ga itoshisugite

I saw you playful in the overflowing light
The voice of the swaying trees brings forth a smile
I chased forever after the dream that was broken and vanished
Graceful fingertips carry the pain

You are taken away to a place my hands cannot reach
in the transience of the eternity of the time I cannot return to¹
More than any flower that blooms brightly
My memories with you are beautiful

The careless melody of bells echoing somewhere
calls out softly from inside my own heart

(Because I will always be by your side, I took your little body in my arms
and painted our yesterdays until the end of the promise we exchanged)²

They unfold their wings and soar into the sky
led by countless lights
More than any star that shines from afar
My memories with you are beautiful

A bunch of flowers too big to hold in your arms
and those lips I will never touch again…

They unfold their wings and soar into the sky
led by countless lights
More than any star that shines from afar
My memories with you are too dear to me
