Twilight
神田莉緒香 Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

眠れないなら部屋にさよなら
飛び出したいなら星に想いを
真夏の夜に旅に出ようか
ふたりだけ秘密の逃避行へ

両手を広げ描いていた夢に飛び立とうよ
魔法のコトバ 1,2,3 さあ

Twilight 見てごらんよ
Twilight 夜空をこえて
Twilight 導く星
広がるの希望の光 fly high...

明け方の海の向こう側に
見つからない答えを追いかけて
歩きだそうと思えた事が
なによりも大事だから　

新しい日が今始まるよ右手をかざし
夢見るコトバ 1,2,3 さあ

Twilight 涙を信じ
Twilight 今夜遠くへ
Twilight 導く声
いつでも君は飛べるんだ fly high...

さあ
Twilight 見てごらんよ
Twilight 夜空をこえて

Twilight 導く星
広がるの希望の光 fly high...
