Passing my hand lightly over
those hated freckles, I let out a sigh.
My HEAVY class love dissolved completely,
just like a sugar cube.

The thorn tingling, pricking my thin breast
hurts even more than before.
Even astrology
didn't predict that at all.

If we could go (Oohh...)
even further together, you know,
I would be happy
with just that.

Memories are always beautiful, however
I can't live on them alone.
The truth is, it's gonna be a painful night for me.
I wonder why, though?
His smiling face was...I don't even remember.

(Instrumental Break)

I understand breaking apart and putting back together,
since that's my personality.
With impatient feelings and uncertainty,
I'm nevertheless capable of good love.

I pierced my left ear (Oohh...)
to try to forget. Hey!
I can't laugh about that
EPISODE.

Counting up the number of freckles that I see,
Hugging my dirty stuffed animals
The thorn piercing my breast won't disappear, but
frog-chan and
rabbit-chan
smile and comfort me.

Memories are always beautiful, however
I can't live on them alone.
The truth is, it's gonna be a painful night for me.
I wonder why, though?
His tears were...I don't even remember.
I don't even remember.

I wonder why?
