UNDO

Cool Joke Anime Japanese

Vocabulary from Cool Joke: 'UNDO' (Fullmetal Alchemist OP3 (鋼の錬金術師 OP3) · 2003).

遠く 遠く 想い果てなく

二人が 無邪気に笑ってた

あの頃に戻れるなら…

こなごなに砕けた

ガラス細工のような

思い出の破片(カケラ)を集めてる

大事なモノはいつだって

失くしてから気づくよ

君がいない世界は

まるでジグソーパズル

永遠に欠けたまま未完成

誰にも君の代わりなんて

なれるはずはないから

どうか どうか 時間を止めて

君の面影をこの胸に 刻んでくれ

もしも もしも 許されるなら

すべてを犠牲にしてもいい

あの笑顔をもう一度…

現実という鎖に

僕達は繋がれて

夢見ることさえも叶わずに

それでも探し続けてる

闇を照らす光を

遠く 遠く 想い果てなく

二人が 無邪気に笑ってたあの頃へ

どうか どうか 時間を止めて

君の面影をこの胸に 刻んでくれ

もしも もしも 許されるなら

すべてを犠牲にしてもいい

あの笑顔をもう一度…
