From M single + I am… album.

‘MARIA’ To everyone who has been hurt
Because there is someone they love

Looking around
Everyone seems to be in a hurry
Rushing off past me to someplace else

Once again, this year
Winter has arrived so quickly
Before anyone even realized

Today, surely, somewhere in this city
Two people will meet and look into each others’ eyes
And the curtains open violently

Even so, everything
Will surely, someday
Come to an end

Today, surely, somewhere in this city
Two people will choose the road of separation
And the curtains close silently

‘MARIA’ Because there is someone to love
Sometimes, the feeling of loneliness is strong
But because there is someone to love
Everything will be fulfilled in the end

‘MARIA’ Because there is someone to love
Sometimes, the injury goes deep, so deep
But because there is someone to love
Everything will be healed in the end

‘MARIA’ Everyone, everyone is crying
‘MARIA’ But we all want to believe
‘MARIA’ That’s why we are praying
That this will be our final love

Beginnings can happen without reason
But endings always come with one…

‘MARIA’ aisubeki hito ga ite
Kizu wo otta subete no monotachi…

Mawari wo miwataseba
Daremo ga awata dashiku
Dokoka ashibaya ni toorisugi

Kotoshi mo ki ga tsukeba
Konna ni sugu soba made
Fuyu no kehai ga otozureteta

Kyou mo kitto kono machi no dokoka de
Deatte me ga atta futari
Hageshiku maku ga aketeku

Soredemo subete miwa
Kanarazu itsu no hi ni ka
Owari ga yatte kuru mono dakara

Kyou mo mata kono machi no dokoka de
Wakare no michi erabu futari
Shizuka ni maku wo oroshita

‘MARIA’ aisubeki hito ga ite
Toki ni tsuyoi kodoku wo kanji
Dakedo aisubeki ano hito ni
Kekkyoku nanimo kamo mitasareru

‘MARIA’ aisubeki hito ga ite
Tokini fukaku fukai kizu wo oi
Dakedo aisubeki ano hito ni
Kekkyoku nanimo kamo iyasareteru

‘MARIA’ daremo minna naiteiru
‘MARIA’ dakedo shinjiteitai
‘MARIA’ dakara inotteiru yo
Kore ga saigo no koi de aru you ni

Wake naku hajimari wa otozure
Owari wa itsudatte wake wo motsu…

KANJI

‘MARIA’ 愛すべき人がいて
きずを負った全ての者達…

周りを見渡せば
誰もが慌ただしく
どこか足早に通り過ぎ

今年も氣が付けば
こんなにすぐそばまで
冬の氣配が訪れてた

今日もきっと この街のどこかで
出會って 目が合ったふたり
激しく幕が開けてく

それでも全てみわ
必ずいつの日にか
終わりがやって來るものだから

今日もまたこの街のどこかで
別れの道 選ぶふたり
靜かに幕を下ろした

‘MARIA ‘ 愛すべき人がいて
時に 強い孤獨を感じ
だけど 愛すべきあの人に
結局何もかも滿たされる

‘MARIA ‘ 愛すべき人がいて
時に 深く深いきずを負い
だけど 愛すべきあの人に
結局何もかも癒されてる

‘MARIA’ 誰も皆泣いている
‘MARIA’ だけど信じていたい
‘MARIA’ だから祈っているよ
これが最後の戀であるように

理由なく始まりわ訪れ
終わりわいつだって理由をもつ…
