=== Rōmaji ===
Nande kana sora ga tobenai no wa
Yume no naka no boku wa hane ga haeten no ni
Genkai wo koete tobidasou koko kara
Samishisa fuki tobasu kimi to kimi to
Airabyu mo sayonara mo ienakatta
Koko ni fukanzen na boku dake wo nokoshite
Ai no uta kimi ni mada tsutaetenai yo
Doko made mo mabushiku kagayaku sekai wo
Kono uta o
=== Kanji ===
なんでかなぁ　
空が飛べないのは 
夢の中の僕は　
羽がはえてんのに
限界を超えて　
とびだそうここから 
さみしさ吹き飛ばす　
君と君と 
アイラビューもさよならも　言えなかった 
ここに不完全な僕だけを残して 
愛のウタ　君にまだ伝えてないよ
どこまでもまぶしく輝く世界を 
この歌を
=== English ===
I wonder why I can’t fly in the sky.
When the me in my dreams can grow﻿ wings.
From here on I will pass my limits and fly out.
I’ll brush away loneliness with you, with you.
I couldn’t say ‘I love you’, nor ‘goodbye’ to you.
Only I was left here, incomplete.
I haven’t told you a love song yet.
The world shines dazzlingly everywhere
with this song.
=== Rōmaji (Full Version) ===
Nande kanaa sora ga tobenai no wa
Yume no naka no boku wa hane ga haeten no ni
Genkai o koete tobidasou koko kara
Samishisa fukitobasu kimi to kimi to
Airabuyuu mo sayonara mo kieteitta
Koko ni fukanzen na boku dake o nokoshite
Ai no uta kimi ni mada osowattenai yo
Sora ni mankai no yume dake o nokoshite tondeitta
Hontou no tenshi yoru ni ochiteitta
Kizutsuita hane ga itakute naita
Airabuyuu mo sayonara mo ienakatta
Zenbu mune ni shimatta mama no risoukyou
Taisetsu na omoi nara yoake o matte
Sora ni mankai no ima dake o utsushite
Ai no uta kimi ni mada tsutaetenai yo
Doko made mo mabushiku kagayaku sekai o kono uta o
=== English (Full Version) ===
I wonder why, I can’t fly in the sky
Because in my dreams, I have wings
I’ll go beyond my limits and fly right out of here
I’ll drive off this loneliness, with you, with you
No more “I love you”, no more “good-bye”
All that’s left here is me incomplete
You still haven’t taught me the song of love
All you left was a full-blown dream in the sky, and flew away
A solitary angel falling into the night
Crying from the pain of its wounded wings
I couldn’t say, “I love you” or Good-bye”
A utopia holding everything inside
If it’s a cherished memory, wait for daybreak
All that’s left is this full-blown present moment, reflected in the sky
I still haven’t taught you the song of love
It’s a world that shines brightly over all. This song
