Lyrics

Original

月が太陽に恋文を書いていた
ぎこちない言葉
君の光が最も明るく輝いた

星たちに囲まれてひとりぼっちの空

あなたとまた会えるように
君の光を照らし続ける
約束

月が太陽と出会い愛情を求めて
今知った
これは最大距離で遥か溢れる気持ち消えなかった

星たちに囲まれてひとりぼっちの空
夜探してる
あなたとまた会えるように
君の光を照らし続ける
約束

Romanized

tsuki ga taiyō ni koibumi o kaiteita
gikochinai kotoba

kimi no hikari ga mottomo akaruku kagayaita

hoshitachi ni kakomarete hitoribocchi no sora
yoru

anata to mata aeru yōni
kimi no hikari o terashi tsuzukeru
yakusoku

tsuki ga taiyō to deai aijō o motomete
ima shitta

kore wa saidai kyori de haruka afureru kimochi kienakatta

hoshitachi ni kakomarete hitoribocchi no sora
yoru sagashiteru

anata to mata aeru yōni
kimi no hikari o terashi tsuzukeru
yakusoku

Translated

The moon wrote a love letter to the sun
Awkward words
Your light shined brightest

A lonely sky surrounded by stars
Night
So that i can see you again
Keep shining your light
Promise

The moon meets the sun and seeks love
I just found out
This is the maximum distance, and the overflowing feelings didn't disappear

A lonely sky surrounded by stars
Looking for the night
So that i can see you again
Keep shining your light
Promise

Quotes

“total drag” introduces the final and last song, “tsuki no koibumi”, sung by Laura Shigihara. It’s about being together once more. Laura’s lyrics probably nail it. It’s about the Moon loving the Sun, yet they are constantly separated. The Moon just wishes to see the Sun again.
