ほどけた靴ひもそのままに 人の波に流されていた
地図を失った人ほど 背筋伸ばして歩かないとね

足場の悪い明日でも 手探りで生きて行くだけ

Cotton candy
幸せは瞬く間に溶けて消えるけど
Cotton candy
残像にしがみついたりしないで

いつも居た人が居ない時 雑音ばかり僕を責めた
呼び慣れた名前をもう二度と 呼べないなんて寂しいよね

オールの無い舟なんて 頼らずに泳いで行くの

Cotton candy
悲しみは口笛と共に癒えて行くから
Cotton candy
人知れず泣いたりなんかしないで

眩し過ぎても暗過ぎても じっと瞳凝らしてみるよ
To find a light in the dark, in the light to find a invisible thing

Cotton candy
一口じゃ無くならない愛もあるのでしょう
Cotton candy
真っ白な綿菓子探して歩こう 綿菓子探して歩こう
There must be things that never disappear
綿菓子探して歩こう
There's gotta be love, true to me


Hodoketa kutsu himo sono mama ni hito no nami ni nagasareteita
Chizu wo ushinatta hito hodo sesuji tobashite arukanai to ne

Ashiba no warui asu demo tesaguri de ikite iku dake

Cotton candy
Shiawase wa matatakumani tokete kieru hodo
Cotton candy
Sansou ni shigamitsuitari shinai de

Itsumo ita hito ga inai toki satsuon bakari boku wo semeta
Yobinareta namae wo mou ni do to yobenai nante sabishii yo ne

OORU no nai fune nante tayorazu ni oyoide iku no

Cotton candy
Kanashimi wa kuchibue to tomo ni iete iku kara
Cotton candy
Hitoshirezu naitari nanka shinai de

Mabushisugitemo kurasugitemo jitto hitomi korashite miru yo
To find a light in the dark, in the light to find an invisible thing

Cotton candy
Hitokuchi ja naku naranai ai mo aru no deshou
Cotton candy
Mashiro na watagashi sagashite arukou
Watagashi sagashite arukou
There must be things that never disappear
Watagashi sagashite arukou
There’s gotta be love, true to me

Swept away by a wave of people with my shoelaces left untied
As a person loses their map they can't stand up straight and walk

With the gloomy future uncertain, you can only continue to keep living

Cotton candy
Happiness can disappear in the blink of an eye
Cotton candy
So don’t cling to the after-image

The one time you were not here, you blamed me because it was too noisy
How lonely it is when you don’t call a name out twice that you’ve said so many times before

In a boat without oars, do (you get out) and swim without asking for help?

Cotton candy
Since sadness can be healed by whistling
Cotton candy
Don't cry in secret

Even if it’s too bright or dark, I will try to strain my pupils
To find a light in the dark, in the light to find an invisible thing

Cotton candy
Love also doesn’t disappear in a single moment*
Cotton candy
Let’s go search for snow-white cotton candy
Let’s go search for cotton candy
There must be things that never disappear
Let’s go search for cotton candy
There’s gotta be love, true to me

*Play on words. She is comparing cotton candy to love. Such as cotton candy doesn’t disappear in a single bite, love also doesn’t disappear in a single moment.
