Rōmaji
Ano hi hontō ni ushinatta mono tte nan datta kke? Tou ni wasurete shimatta yo

Yuugure de futari sukoshi zutsu mienakunatte ite Sore na no ni Bokura kaerezu ni ita

Dokoka ni kowaresou na moroi kokoro Tsuyogaru kotoba de ootte kakushite'ru Ootte kakushite'ru

Sayonara aenakunatta tte Bokura wa tsuzuki ga aru kara

Kimi no inai sekai datte hashiru yo Itsuka no itami wo koete…

Koete

Kanji
あの日 ホントに失なたつたものつて何だつたけ？ とうに忘れまつたよ

夕暮れで 二人 少しずつ見えなくなっていつて それなのに 僕ら 帰れずにいた

どこかに 壊れそうな脆い心 强がる言叶で覆って隠してる 覆って隠してる

サヨナラ 会えなくなったって 僕らは続きがあるから

君のいない世界だって走るよ いつかの痛みも越えて

超えて

English
What did I really lose on that day? I forgot long ago We lost sight of each other in the twilight What's more; we were unable to return

Somewhere our brittle, broken hearts Try to hide behind strong words Try to hide

Farewell, although we couldn't be together We will carry on Even in a world where you no longer exist, I will run Overcoming one day's pain…
