Cosa Nostra Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

静かにきらめく海
かすかな息づかい
夜空にほほえむ月窓辺の時間
過ぎ去る遠い記憶
まぶたをかけめぐる
ガラス越し白い風揺らめく光
An angel reborn
天使の声が聴こえる

安らかな祈り
An angel reborn
霧のようただよう私は
まぼろしに消えて
砂時計流れる時
彼方に溶けてゆく
指先にふれる星やわらかな光
An angel reborn
天使の声が聴こえる
安らかな眠り
An angel reborn
ちりのようただよう私は
何もかも捨てて
An angel reborn
天使の声が聴こえる
安らかな眠り
An angel reborn

霧のようただよう私は
まぼろしに消えて
