Chikau koto wa kore ga saigo no Heartbreak
Sakura sae kaze no naka de yurete
Yagate hana wo sakasu yo
Furidashita nastsu no ame ga
Namida no yoko wo totta su-tto
Omoide to DABUru eizou
Aki no DOROMA saihousou
Doushite onaji you na PANCHI
Nando mo kurachaun da
Soredemo mata tatakaun darou
Sore ga inochi no fushigi
Koi wo shite subete sasage
Negau koto wa kore ga saigo no Heartbreak
Sakura sae toki no naka de yurete
Yagate hana wo sakasu yo
Kurikaesu kisetsu no naka de
Kutsu ga suriheratte ku
Motto kata no chikara nuite
Kako wa dokoka ni shimatte oke
Koko kara sou tookunai darou
Mita koto mo nai keshiki
Tomaranai mune no itami koete
Motto kimi ni chikazukitai yo
Hitomawari shite wa modori
Aoi sora wo zutto tesaguri
Koi wo shite owari wo tsuge
Chikau koto wa kyou ga saishou no Good day
Sakura made kaze no naka de yurete
Sotto kimi ni te wo nobasu yo
Suki de suki de doushiyou mo nai
Sore to kore to wa kankei nai...
