[Romaji Lyrics]
waraiaeru tte sugoku shiawase na koto
sore o kimi kara oshiete moratta'n da yo
chiisana toki kara nan de mo shitte ite
kimi no shumi sono risou ni awaseyou to shita
sonna kimi ga kossori oshiete kureta
suki na hito toshiue no kirei na josei
oitsukenai dakara chikara tsukau kako e to RIIPU
soko de mata kimi to deai mata koi o suru'n da
boroboro ni naite kimi wa sagashite ita
totsuzen inakunatta atashi no omokage o
hayaku kaero demo chikara wa ippou tsuukou mirai ni wa tobenakatta
tooku kara kita tte koto o tsutaetai
demo sore wa dame da tte dokoka de kizuite'ta
toshiue no atashi o mite kiku no
"anata ni nita hito o sagashite'masu
nanika shirimasen ka" to
boroboro ni natte ano hi o sagashite ita
barabara ni natta futari o tsunagou to shita
yamete atashi koko ni iru yo dakara doko ni mo ikanaide
mada haru ga kite kimi wa koko o tatsu to kimeta
"moshi anata ga ano hito dattara yokatta no ni" to nokoshi

mata waraeru ka na atashi kono sekai de
kimi no shashin wa oita mama de arukidasu
[English Translation]
You have taught me that
being able to laugh together with someone is a bliss.
From when we were little, I already knew all your hobbies and interests,
and I tried to make myself match your ideals to the best of my abilities.
One day, you secretly let me know that
you were in love with a beautiful girl who was older than you.
I can't possibly beat her, so I'll use my power and travel through time to the past.
There I'll meet you again and we'll fall in love with each other.
You, in tears, were searching for me
who had suddenly vanished from your sight.
"I have to go back!" But my power was a one-way street; I couldn't leap back to the future.
I wanted to tell him that I came from a faraway place,
but somehow I had a feeling that I mustn't.
Looking at the older me, he asked,
"I'm looking for someone that looks a lot like you.
Would you happen to know anything about her?"
You, in tears, were searching the whole day.
You were trying to bring the two of us back together.
"Stop! I'm right here, so don't leave me!"
When it's spring again, you decided to leave this place,
and said to me, "I wish you were that person."
I remembered the rich feelings
I had when I was in love,
so with all my might, I grabbed your hand.
I, in tears, told you the truth.
Slowly, I was sucked into the wrecked space-time continuum.
When I opened my eyes again, I found myself in a completely grey world.
In my hand I was holding an old-looking photo.
Ah, so there was once such a vibrantly-colored era.
In that photo you were laughing so innocently.
From here, I began my journey of time travel again in order to meet you.
Will I ever be able to smile again in this world?
I put down your picture and begin walking forward.
