Interstellar Flight

Swaying on the surface of the waves
The ring of wind goes stretching out
Touching the tips of our fingers
Electric blue current

If we just look at each other
A lonely acceleration
In a moment will be smashed up
I love you

Like transparent pearls
Tears float in space
It’s a tragedy but I won’t give up
I want to live with you

Riding on a shooting star
I’ll swoop down to you, ou ou
In the deep blue starry sky
We’re like fireworks
As our hearts shoot off arrows of light

We don’t need conversation
Diving deep inside
Reading thoughts directly
On this mysterious night

Your name is like a magic spell
That I repeat infinitely
Frustrated, I dig my nails
Into my palm

Our bodies turn transparent
Hanging like a picture, ure ure
Life is a tiny seed, but
We’re twinkling
The galaxy surges into our souls

Riding on a shooting star
I’ll zoom up to you, ou ou
In the deep blue starry sky
We’re like fireworks
As our hearts shoot off arrows of light

Life is a tiny seed, but
We’re twinkling
The galaxy surges into our souls
The galaxy surges into our souls

Rirameru rarameru ran rura ran

The wide gap in the sky
Somewhere became lonely
Joining hands with you, even when we laughed together
What was it we feared? What did we hide from?
With the key to your heart, open it now
“Open Ranka!”

In town the flowers bloom fully
Pebbles turn into candy
Wiping away your tears
The handkerchief turns into a baby bird

The love of a lost child
Can cross over the rainbow
It will reach you, surely will reach you
Strengthening your maiden’s heart

Your heart is alive, and it was accidentally twisted
Check the dictionary. The heaviness of the future is the color of a brick
I must keep going
The things I’ve discovered are surely in this heart
So now, open it
“Open Ranka!”

Dressed in your uniform
There’s nothing but the sea in your bag
Throw it out into the desert
And play in the sea with dolphins

With the rhythm of walking dreams come true
Strenghtening your maiden’s heart

The piano flies in the sky
Turning to starlit notes
Every creature wants to sing
Dancing in a picture book

The miracle of love can cross over the rainbow
It will reach you, surely will reach you

“Open Ranka!”

In your lips is a symphony
Surrounding the galaxy in harmony

The miracle of love can cross over the rainbow
It will reach you, surely will reach you
Strengthening your maiden’s heart
Strengthening your maiden’s heart

A Cat’s Diary

Wednesday (good morning), some month, some day, it’s sunny
Light is a water-colored scent

In a cat’s diary
It writes of the frequency of lunch
In a swing’s diary
It writes of today’s acceleration, and a dream of flying
In a clock’s diary
It writes of how many times it saw its beloved person
And so, in my lips’ diary
I write of how many times I called your name
One two three four five and six…

Thursday (good morning), some month, some day, it’s a dream
I wonder if we can get closer?

In the sky’s diary
It writes of when the stars meet
In the curtain’s diary
It writes of rumors about who kissed the wind
In a rocket’s diary
It writes of counting on its fingers to the day it can fly
And so, in my lips’ diary
I’m dreaming of the countdown to you
Seven six five four three two one…

tu　tu　tu　tu　tu　tu　tu…
My diary is dreaming of kissing you…

Blue Ether

My name is the one thing I’ll give to you
The most important thing
Your words are the one thing I ask for
But not “farewell”

The light is a grain of sand, and so the waves
You are a bird, and so the universe

All along, you were by my side
If you smiled, we were connected
That day when everything was one in harmony

All along, you had been by my side
No matter what voice you gave me
Until I could no longer reach you
A blue, blue, blue journey

There’s no offensive, there’s no defense
In the midst of these feelings
Between a glimmer and despair
In the midst of these feelings

The future is wings, and so lead
I am water, and so a flame

All along, you were by my side
Even closer than love
On that day everything became one in warmth

All along, you had been by my side
I can no longer hear the music
From you, far away
A blue, blue, blue journey

Your Sound

Your sound, thump thump thump
I can hear it, thump thump thump
A living sound, a gentle sound, therefore a painful sound; I can hear it

Like the wind causing a flower to bloom, when we laugh together
Like the rain soaking the grass, when my tears fall

Our wish is doing fine, I don’t need this coat of doubts
Time is a bother, but it’s fine, I won’t let go a second time

Your sound, thump thump thump
I can hear it, thump thump thump
A living sound, a gentle sound, therefore a painful sound; I can hear it

Love is thump thump thump
Until you open your eyes, thump thump thump
I want to touch your loneliness more with this hand
As the two of us await the dawn, our eyes were tightly closed

Like the darkness fastened by stars, when we watch together
Like the moon forgiving everything, when all my fears melt away

We fly without straying, right? We don’t even need the compass hands
Before today we flew, right? I’ll protect you eternally

Your sound, thump thump thump
It’s faint, but thump thump thump
When our shoulders touch this much I can’t even breathe, hurry up

My heart, thump thump thump
That important thing is thump thump thump
These feelings and that plum-pool sky
It’s so beautiful we can’t move
…A living sound, a gentle sound, therefore a painful sound; I can hear it

Love is thump thump thump
Until you open your eyes, thump thump thump
I want to touch your loneliness more with this hand
As the two of us await the dawn, our eyes were tightly closed

Do You Remember Love? (Deculture Edition Size)

Now I can hear your voice
Saying “Come here”
I seem to have lost to loneliness

Now I can see your shape
Walking towards me
I close my eyes and wait

Until yesterday it was clouded with tears
But my heart is now…

Do you remember? The time we met eye to eye
Do you remember? The time we touched hand to hand
That was the beginning of our journey of love
I love you, so

I’m no longer alone
Because you are here…
