最後の言葉を さがしていたのは あなた
私は 震える心押さえて 想い出話くり返す
いつもと同じね 透きとおる あなたの声は
からっぽの 私の胸の中に 溶けこんでゆきます

ありきたりの別れは したくなかったの
涙で幕をおろすような
紅い口紅で鏡に書くけど
文字にならない エピローグ

最後の最後に あなたは 優しかったわ
これで ほんとにもう終わりなの 二度と会えないの
とぎれた電話を 耳にあてたまま 私は
あなたの声を 夢の中で 聞いていたようです

ありきたりの別れは したくなかったの
涙で幕をおろすような
紅い口紅で鏡に書くけど
文字にならないエピローグ

ありきたりの別れは したくなかったの
涙で幕をおろすような
紅い口紅で鏡に書くけど
文字にならないエピローグ
エピローグ

Saigo no kotoba wo sagashiteita no wa anata
Watashi wa furueru kokoro osaete omoide banashi kurikaesu
Itsumo to onaji ne sukitooru anata no koe wa
Karappo no watashi no mune no naka ni tokekonde yukimasu

Arikitari no wakare wa shitakunakatta no
Namida de maku wo orosu yo na
Akai kuchibeni de kagami ni kaku kedo
Moji ni naranai epiroogu

Saigo no saigo ni anata wa yasashikatta wa
Kore de honto ni mou owari na no nidoto aenai no
Togireta denwa wo mimi ni ateta mama watashi wa
Anata no koe wo yume no naka de kiiteiru you desu

Arikitari no wakare wa shitakunakatta no
Namida de maku wo orosu yo na
Akai kuchibeni de kagami ni kaku kedo
Moji ni naranai epiroogu

Arikitari no wakare wa shitakunakatta no
Namida de maku wo orosu yo na
Akai kuchibeni de kagami ni kaku kedo
Moji ni naranai epiroogu
Epiroogu

Translation

 

You were the one searching for the last word
Suppressing my trembling heart, I repeated the reminiscent talk
It's always like this, your shining voice
Melt through to my empty heart

You didn't want a conventional goodbye
"Don't close the curtains with tears"
You wrote on the mirror with a red lipstick
A wordless epilogue

You were gentle to the very end
Is this truly the end? Will we never meet again?
Holding the buzzing phone to my ear
I can hear your voice in my dreams

You didn't want a conventional goodbye
"Don't close the curtains with tears"
You wrote on the mirror with a red lipstick
A wordless epilogue

You didn't want a conventional goodbye
"Don't close the curtains with tears"
You wrote on the mirror with a red lipstick
A wordless epilogue
Epilogue
