Kanji:

青い月に照らされ

彷徨う　あなたの影

伝えたいこと　伝えられず　もどかしく過ぎる日々

偽りの笑顔を　覚えて

あたたかい涙を　忘れて

抜け殻のような　虚ろな　その瞳に何が映る?

儚い　下弦の月が　雲間に隠れ

今　闇が　浮かび上がってくる

真実を　語ってくれ

孤独を抱えて　今夜も　吐息こぼすだけかい…

風に耳を澄ませば

聞こえる　あなたの鼓動

渇いた夜に包まれ　ただ　淋しげに響くけど

もう一度　心に手をあて

あたたかいぬくもり　感じて

千切れる雲を見上げて　あなたは今　何を願う?

あの雲の　切れ間から　ひとすじの　光りが見えてくるから

あなたは　迷わずに　自分らしく　道を見つけだすさ

儚い　下弦の月を　探し求めて

何故　ひとり　歩きつづけてゆく?

その理由を　聞かせてくれ

風に吹かれて　また　今夜も　瞳そらすだけかい…

English:

The blue moon shines

Your shadow wanders aimlessly

Things I want to say, things I can't say, passing through irritating days

That lying smile, I remember

Those warm tears, I forgot

Like a husk, it's empty, what's reflected in those eyes?

The fleeting waning moon hides between the clouds

Now the darkness rises to the surface

So tell the truth

Carrying along solitude, again tonight is it just sighs spilling out...?

If I listen close to the wind

I can hear your heartbeat

Wrapped up in a thirsty night, but it's a lonely echo

Once more, that hand presses to my heart

I feel that pleasant warmth

Looking up at the clouds torn apart, what is it you wish for right now?

Those clouds are breaking, a beam of light can be seen

Don't lose your way, find the path just for you

In search of the fleeting waning moon

Why are you walking along alone?

Tell me the reason
In the blowing wind, again tonight will you just turn your eyes away...?
