Meguriawase hitotsu machigaeba
Itoshisa sae toge ni natte shimau
Mune no soko ni shizumeta itami ga
Himei wo age iki wo fukikaeshita

     Make just one little mistake in an encounter,
     And even your feelings could turn into thorns
     I had suppressed the pain deep within my chest,
     But it surfaced as a scream and was revived

Ano toki wa naze to jibun wo semete mitari
Demo doushite to aite ni toikaketari

     "That time, why did it happen?" I seem to blame myself
     "But, why did you do that?" I questioned my rival

Nagarete yuku mizu ni utsuru omoide no danpen
An'na omoi kurikaesanai sou kokoro ni chikau
Nagarete yuku mizu ni utsuru kanashimi ga aru kara
Kono chikara de kono inochi de omae wo mamoritai

     Part of the memory is reflected in the flowing water
     I vowed to my heart never to repeat that memory ever again
     Sadness is reflected in the flowing water
     With this power and with this life, I will protect you

Nakushita no wa shinjiau kimochi
Demo ima nara ai wa makenai darou
Nasake nakute mo ima wa itara nakute mo
Sore dakara koso tagai ni tasuke aeru

     I had lost my belief in feelings
     But now I see that love can't be defeated
     Even if there's no compassion, even if this moment leads to nowhere,
     We can still help one another

Nagarete yuku mizu ni utsuru omoide no danpen
An'na omoi kurikaesanai sou kokoro ni chikau
Nagarete yuku mizu ni utsuru kanashimi ga aru kara
Kono chikara de kono inochi de omae wo mamoritai

     Part of the memory is reflected in the flowing water
     I vowed to my heart never to repeat that memory ever again
     Sadness is reflected in the flowing water
     With this power and with this life, I will protect you

Mizu kagami de kokoro no kage wo mireba
Sore wa ai ga uunda mou hitotsu no kaou
Taisetsu ni shitai subete no tame ni mo
Mou itami kara me wo somuketaku nai

     I can see the darkness of my heart through the water mirror
     That's when love will take on one more face
     For everything that I cherish,
     I won't avoid this pain anymore

Taisetsu ni shitai subete no tame ni mo
Mou itami kara me wo somuketaku nai
Taisetsu ni shitai subete no tame ni mo
Mou itami kara me wo somuketaku nai

     For everything that I cherish,
     I won't avoid this pain anymore
     For everything that I cherish,
     I won't avoid this pain anymore
