Original/Romaji Lyrics
- Ima mo oboete iru no
- Anata tabidatsu hi ni mita yume wo
- Namida tsutau anata no hoho

English Translation
- Even now I remember
- The dream I had on the day you left
- When I reached for your tear-streaked cheek
- It vanished into the darkness
- I suddenly awaken
- As reality inserts on my reverie
- I found you within a crimson-stained man
- Because I now understand
- The meaning of the promise we exchanged
- I look up at the fleeting shooting star
- Shining in the distant sky and smile
- Whenever my eyes waver, I remember that
- Though I gazed into your eyes, I was looking from afar
- Because I now understand
- The meaning of the promise we exchanged
- I look up at the fleeting shooting star
- Shining in the distant sky and smile
- Because I now understand
- The meaning of the promise we exchanged that day
- I look up at the fleeting shooting star
- Shining in the distant sky and smile
