[Bright Intro] [verse] A book tucked away In a corner of life Even when I try to open it O fates that leapt beyond the bookshelf Can we truly never meet again? [Pre-chorus] Someday, we'll all step outside We who laughed together inside the well It's sad to see the water rising higher Where did you all go after leaving----? [chorus] Farewell--- O books now soaked through and through Even if I try to read you again, you're blurred Why did you fly away like that? If we happen to meet again somewhere-- Reflecting upon who we were that day At last, I'll listen to your story- [Interlude] [verse][Build-up] Even if there were memories I'd rather forget You're still the kind of book that makes me open you again That must have been the bond between us [Harmony] Though we met only briefly before parting I always wonder how your story continues Because it's a tale worth that much Will you call me, maybe--? [Pre-chorus] Someday, we'll all step outside We who laughed together inside the well It's sad to see the water rising higher Where did you all go after leaving----? [chorus] Farewell--- O books now soaked through and through Even if I try to read you again, you're blurred Why did you fly away like that? If we happen to meet again somewhere-- Reflecting upon who we were that day At last, I'll listen to your story- [Interlude] [bridge] Though you've been burned by fire, your spirit remains beautiful Even if that weren't the case, I'd still keep looking at you These pages spread throughout the world-- I can't let them slip away---! [chorus] Farewell--- (Ah--) O books now soaked through and through (I---) Even if I try to read you again, you're blurred (Like this---) Why did you fly away like that? If we happen to meet again somewhere-- Reflecting upon who we were that day (I can't go back---) At last, I'll listen to your story- ...I can't let them slip away---! [end]
