Angela Aki

Released: March 9, 2005

[Verse 1]
に咲くお花を描いてみたけど
何色か分からずに
夢から覚めました

[Chorus]
走る思いに
追い抜かされぬように
今日の光に
そっと呪文をかけました

[Verse 2]
変わり行く季節も
去って行くあなたも
心を引き裂いても
取り戻せないんだ

[Chorus]
裏切る者と
裏切られる者なんて
何も違わないと
初めて知りました

[Bridge]
かけがえのないものだから
簡単に捨てられるはずがない
知りたいなら教えてあげるよ

[Chorus]
最初に咲く花を描いてみたけど
名前を分からずに
夢から覚めました

[Outro]
愛する者と
愛される者なんて
何も違わないと
初めて知りました
初めて知りました
