Lyrics

wasurenagusa ga saku koro ni hanabira no iro omoidasu
shizuka na me wo shita ano ko to takaku sora ni nobotte yuku yume

hikoukigumo wo hinata ni egaku roketto booizu to
nagamete warau toppyoushi no nai jiai wo mune ni daku gaaruzu
toki wa guru guru sonna bokura mo minna inakunatte
ozanari ni naru kurai memagurushii hibi ni setsunakunaru

“itsuka mata koko de ne”
sayonara no koe ga itsumademo hibiite
senaka wo osu koto mo naku bora wo tsunaida

aimai na koto mo tanjun na koto mo minna irozuite yuku
kotoba ni naranai kono kusubutta kimochi dakishimeteitai yo
aimai na koto mo tanjun na koto mo minna onaji datte
bokura no uta kono mune no mannaka de hana wo sakasete iru

kakedashita hitori no gogo
daare mo inai machi wo kuguri
mawaru asobi kara ichi nukete
kimi no koto wo omoide ni shiteshimau

saakuru geemu wo tsuzukete
boku wa inotte kimi wa utau
kienai maboroshi wo kanaeyou
dakara inotte boku wa utau

saakuru geemu wo tsuzukeyou
bokura wa hanete omomi wo shiru
kawaru yorokobi ya kanashimi wo
koko de inotte uta ni shite mitari suru

“yatto mata aeta ne”
natsukashii kimi no koe ga suru
kizukeba bokura wa chuu ni ukabiagatte
toki ni oiyarare

aimai na koto mo tanjun na koto mo minna hanabira no you
tadayoinagara sora wo mawatte iru dake furikaeranaide
kaze ni hakobareta wasurenagusa ga minna oikoshite yuku
bokura no uta zutto saki ni ano iro no hana wo sakasete iru

English Translation

When forget-me-nots bloom, I remember the color of the petals
In my dreams, I climb high into the sky with that quiet-eyed girl

Rocket Boys drawing airplane tracks in the sun
And girls with outrageous affection who stare and laugh
Time goes round and round and we all dissapear 
Feeling sorrow about the perfunctory, dizzying days

"I'll see you again here someday" 
The voice of goodbye echoes forever
Without encouragement, we were connected

Ambiguous and simple things start to change colors
No words can describe
This smoldering feeling that I want to hold onto, ambiguous and simple things are all the same
Our song in the center of my heart will make the flower bloom

One afternoon, when I started running
Passing through the empty town
Breaking free from spinning games
Making you my memory

Keep the Circle Game going
I pray, and you sing
Grant the indelible phantom
So I pray, and I sing

Keep the Circle Game going
We feel the weight as we bounce
The joy and sadness that keep changing
We pray for it here and make it into a song

"Finally, I see you again"
I notice your nostalgic voice
Before we knew it, we were floating in the air
Chased off by time

Ambiguous and simple things are like petals
Drifting around in the sky, don't look back
Forget-me-nots carried by the wind, will leave us behind   
Our song, far ahead, in that very color, will make the flower bloom
