Lyrics LIX. - Lorelei

Boku o yonda sono koe ni mukatte
Nomikomareta　sono fukai umi made
Nagasarete yuku　kimi ni yudaneta mama
Shizunda fune　kokoro ni ana ga aita
"Kocchi e oide" sasayaku sono koe
Kuchimoto dake yugamu egao tsukuru
Shizunda koukei　ochiteku jou e　nagareru kono kokoro wa shinde
Hontou wa kimi ga sukoshi kowai

Mada todokanai kimi e kurikaesu nami ni saraware
Mou tsutaeru kotoba o ushinatta boku wa...

Hai no naka　kimi ga sosoide yuku　tsutau namida sae oborete
Kizuiteta　sore de mo boku wa zutto yume no naka de oyoideita
"Nee... todoita?"

Kusatte yuku teashi o hikizutte　gake no ue no shiroi kage o sagashita
Nodo wa tsubure nani hitotsu kimi e　tsutaerarenai　sore de mo ii kara

Saa, mou ichido koko de　au koto de sukuwareru kara
Subete o nomikonde itte　soko ni shizumu

Suimenka　kimi no yume o miteru　kanashiku naranai you ni to
Yureteiru shikai no naka de zutto kotae o sagashiteiru kara
"Nee, soko ni ite ne... waratteite"

Hai no naka　kimi ga sosoide yuku　tsutau namida sae oborete
Suimenka　shiroi doresu yurasu　kimi no uta ni nomikomareta.

Facing toward the voice that called out to me
Swallowed as far as the deep sea
I'm carried on the flow, still entrusting everything to you
The boat has sunk, a hole has opened in my heart
A voice whispers "come this way"
I force a smile that warps only my mouth
The scene has sunk, my heart dies riding the flow to falling emotions
The truth is, I'm a little scared of you

I still can't reach you, swept away by the recurring waves
I've already lost the words I wanted to tell you...

Even the trickling tears you pour into my lungs are drowning
I realized it, but still I went on swimming within my dream
"Hey... did it reach you?"

Dragging along my rotting arms and legs, I searched for a white shadow on top of the cliff
My throat is destroyed and I can't tell you anything, but that's all right

Now, I know meeting you again here will save me
So I'll swallow up everything and sink to the depths

Under the water I'm dreaming of you, in hopes that I won't be sad
I'll go on searching for the answer within my wavering field of vision
"Stay there, okay?... Keep smiling"

Even the trickling tears you pour into my lungs are drowning
Under the water your white dress wavers... I've been swallowed by your song.
