鱗粉(りんぷん)
作詞 石井聖子 作曲 浅香春子 編曲 菅原弘明 ストリングスアレンジ 金子飛島
もう終わりと 分かってるけれど
言葉にする勇気 される勇気もない
もう自由と 言い聞かせるけど
あなたのいない時間 ムダにもて遊ぶだけ
纏ってはもらえない 指先だと知ってても
気になる感触 “悲しいね” 一人苦笑いしてる
握りつぶしてよ 思い出になって しまうくらいなら
愛されてたことあなたのその手で つつみ込むように
もう終わりと 伝えたいけれど
別れにする理由 される理由もない
もう最後と 分かっていたなら
溶け合うくらいずっと 抱き合っていたかった
温めてもらえない つま先だと知ってても
まきつけた素足 “恋しいね” 思い出すたび 冷たくなるの
捨ててしまってよ 体のどこかに 残すくらいなら
愛されてたこと私の中から ぬぐい取るように
粉々にしてよ 記憶のどこかに しまうくらいなら
愛していたこと あなたの体に 舞い落ちるように
もう終わりと 分かっているから
せめて私の跡(こと) あなたに届けたくて
RINPUN: BUTTERFLY DUST
I know it's all over now
But I don't have the courage to say or hear it
I tell myself that I'm free now
But I am wasting my time without you
My fingers will no longer be touched by you
But I still yearn for it and feel so sad
Crush our love until it leaves just a memory
Crush our love in your own hands
I want to tell you it's all over
But there is no reason to leave or be left
If I knew that it was the last time
I would hold you until we both melted
I know my toes will no longer be warmed by you
When I think of you, my crossed legs are cold and
I feel sad
I'll throw away whatever love remains on my body
To wipe off from me all of your love
Don't lock away the memories
Just break our love into little pieces and scatter
them on your body
I know it's all over now
All I can do now is to send you the last piece of
my heart
