*長く伸びてゆく君の影 夜に溶けゆく前に*
ありふれた日々を包み込む オレンジ色の空が

さよならを照らすから 少しだけ もう少しだけ

一緒に居られたらいいのにな

好きな事話すと 夢中になる私

いつだって君は 笑って頷いていた

当たり前の居場所 帰り道 交差点

ここが二人のピリオド

明日へと伸びる君の影 夜に溶けゆく前に

ありふれた日々を包み込む オレンジ色の空が

さよならを照らすから 少しだけ もう少しだけ

一緒に居られたらいいのにな

明日も晴れるかな? だといいんだけどな

未来はいつも 掴めぬ雲のように

ふわりとしたまま すり抜けていくから

今をちゃんと伝えたくて

さっきまでの空が君だけを 夜に連れていく前に

ありふれた言葉積み重ね 繋ぎとめていたくて

この会話途切れても 少しだけ もう少しだけ

一緒に居られたらいいのにな

同じようでちょっとだけ違う日々も

どことなく愛しくて 彩っていく magic hour

長く伸びてゆく君の影 夜に溶けゆく前に

ありふれた日々を包み込む オレンジ色の空が

さよならを照らすから 少しだけ もう少しだけ

一緒に居られたらいいのにな

*Your long, growing shadow, before it melts into the night*
The orange sky that envelops our mundane days

I'll light up your goodbye, just a little, just a little more

I wish I could be with you

When I talk about what I like, I get carried away

You always smiled and nodded at me

A natural place to be, on the way home, at the intersection

This is the end of the road for the two of us

Your shadow stretching to tomorrow, before it melts into the night

The orange sky that envelops our mundane days

I'll light up your goodbye, just a little, just a little more

I wish we could be together

Do you think it'll be sunny tomorrow? I hope so.

The future is always like an ungraspable cloud

I want to tell you about the present

I wanted to tell you about the present

Before the sky that was just a moment ago takes you alone into the night

I want to hold on to the stack of mundane words

Even if this conversation is cut short, just a little, just a little more

I wish I could be with you

I wish we could be together, just a little bit more

I'm not sure what to say, but I love you and I'm going to color you with magic hour

Before your long, growing shadow melts into the night

The orange sky that envelops our mundane days

I'll light up your goodbye, just a little, just a little more

I wish I could be with you

## Trivia

* When reading the lyrics of the song, it is interpreted as a song written in Atsuko Sasaki's point of view, and she both grieves and thanks her friend for the days they spent together.
	+ The anime emphasizes this point by playing the song as Katarina and Atsuko bid their thanks and farewells.
