Lyrics
Kanji=
 * さあ 針はゼロを指した
 * 駆け出そう ベッドは無重力
 * 醒めてはくれないね 君の声、サヨナラの残響(おと)


 * 擦り減ったレコードが
 * 優しく思い出を奏でた


 * 最後の言葉だから綺麗なんて
 * 霞んだ昨日(かこ)は涙のせい


 * When swan sings last song
 * The time for walk with you, I loved.


 * 目に映るものは やがて
 * 変わるだろう 例外はないね
 * 大切だと気付いてから 失くす事 目を背けてた


 * 心の硝子(がらす) まるで
 * スパンコールの様に煌めいてた


 * 羽根はなくても
 * 何をなくしても
 * 解けてく糸へ
 * 今も焦がれて


 * When I sings your song
 * At end of the world, I loved.


 * 舞い落ちた花弁
 * もう 面影も無いね
 * 悲しい詩 今の景色
 * 忘れないように 頬を撫でた


 * 閃光のように 深い闇抜けて
 * 終わらない夢に 別れを告げる
 * 散りゆく日々も
 * 未完成な詩達(うた)も
 * 未来を奏で 地平を越えて


 * When swan sings last song
 * The time for walk with you, I loved.

 * kasunda kako wa namida no sei


 * When swan sings last song
 * The time for walk with you, I loved.


 * me ni utsurumono wa yagate
 * kawarudarou reigai wa nai ne
 * taisetsu da to kizuite kara nakusukoto me wo somuketeta


 * kokoro no garasu marude
 * supankooru no you ni kirameiteta


 * hane wa nakutemo
 * nani wo nakushitemo

 * When I sings your song
 * At end of the world, I loved.

 * When swan sings last song
 * The time for walk with you, I loved.


 * -|English Translation=
 * Now, the needle has ticked down to zero
 * I try to rise, the bed is weightless
 * I can't seem to wake. Your voice echoes with your farewells


 * The worn record
 * softly played out my memories


 * Because it was your last words to me, they sound so lovely
 * These tears are to blame for our hazy past


 * When swan sings last song
 * The time for walk with you, I loved.


 * The things projecting into my eyes
 * will finally change. It has to
 * I realized what was precious to me. I turn my eyes away from what I lost


 * This glass heart of mine
 * glistens like sequins


 * Even if I lack the wings
 * and I have lost something,
 * I head to that melted string
 * Even now I pine for you


 * When I sings your song
 * At end of the world, I loved.


 * Flower petals spiraling down
 * don't have anymore memories to shed
 * A sad song in this landscape
 * I stroke my cheek as to not forget


 * Like a flash of light, I vanquish the twilight
 * I say goodbye to this endless dream,
 * to dying days,
 * to unfinished songs
 * The future plays for me beyond the horizon


 * When swan sings last song
 * The time for walk with you, I loved.
