風に戸惑う弱気な僕
通りすがるあの日の幻影
本当は見た目以上
涙もろい過去がある

止めど流る清か水よ
消せど燃ゆる魔性の火よ
あんなに好きな女性に
出逢う夏は二度とない

人は誰も愛求めて闇に彷徨う運命
そして風まかせ oh, my destiny
涙枯れるまで

見つめ合うと素直にお喋り出来ない
津波のような侘しさに
I know 怯えてる hoo
めぐり逢えた瞬間から
魔法が解けない
鏡のような夢の中で
思い出はいつの日も 雨

夢が終わり目覚める時
深い闇に夜明けが来る
本当は見た目以上
打たれ強い僕がいる

泣き出しそうな空眺めて
波に漂うカモメ
きっと世は情け oh, sweet memory
旅立ちを胸に

人は涙見せずに大人になれない
ガラスのような恋だとは
I know 気付いてる hoo
身も心も愛しい女性しか見えない
張り裂けそうな胸の奥で
悲しみに耐えるのは何故?

見つめ合うと素直にお喋り出来ない
津波のような侘しさに
I know 怯えてる hoo
めぐり逢えた瞬間から
死ぬまで好きと言って
鏡のような夢の中で
微笑をくれたのは誰?
好きなのに泣いたのは何故
思い出はいつの日も 雨
