もしも君に巡り逢えたら
二度と君の手を離さない
春の終わり告げる 花御堂
霞む花 ひとひら
蘇る 思い出の歌
この胸に 今も優しく

Time after time
君と出逢った奇跡
緩やかな風吹く街で
そっと手を繋ぎ 歩いた坂道
今も忘れない約束   

風に君の声が聞こえる
うすらい冴返る 遠い記憶
傷付く怖さを知らず 誓った
いつかまたこの場所で
巡り逢おう 薄紅色の
季節が来る日に 笑顔で

Time after time
ひとり 花舞う街で
散らざるときは戻らないけれど
あの日と同じ 変わらない景色に
涙ひらり 待っていたよ

風舞う花びらが
水面を撫でるように
大切に想うほど 切なく
人は皆孤独と言うけれど
探さずにはいられない 誰かを
儚く壊れやすいものばかり
追い求めてしまう

Time after time
君と色づく街で
出逢えたら もう約束はいらない
誰よりもずっと 傷付きやすい君の
そばにいたい今度は きっと

(Time after time, you know you'll be mine)
(Time after time, you know you'll be mine)
(Time after time, you know you'll be mine) 
(Time after time, you know you'll be mine)
