English Translation
Please come back to me,
Following memories
To the source of gentleness and dreams,
In order to be born, and shine to the stars
Once again...
Soul's refrain
[Instrumental Intro]
Your naked skin wrapped in blue shadows
Trembles quietly in this moment
Your fingertip searches for me,
As if asking for the whereabouts of life
The you that was embraced by fate
Blooms in season like an ephemeral flower
Leaving behind the scent of hope on your chest
Scattering hurriedly in splendid form
Please come back to me,
Before you are born
To the earth you spent your days on
Please come back into my arms,
To meet again
Miracles do happen, however many times
Soul's refrain
[Instrumental]
When eyes are closed as if in prayer
The world simply disappears there into the darkness
Even so, my heartbeat starts again
Looking for a bounded eternity
Please come back to me,
Following memories
To the source of gentleness and dreams.
You, too, please come back,
So we can love each other.
Heart and body repeat
Soul's refrain
Please come back to me,
Before you are born
To the earth you spent your days on
Please come back into my arms
To meet again
Miracles do happen, however many times
Soul's refrain

Original Japanese Lyrics
歌 ：高橋洋子
作詞：及川眠子
作曲／編曲：大森俊之
私に還りなさい 記憶をたどり
優しさと夢の水源へ
もういちど星にひかれ 生まれるために
魂のルフラン
蒼い影につつまれた素肌が
時のなかで 静かにふるえてる
命の行方を問いかけるように
指先は私をもとめる
抱きしめてた運命のあなたは
季節に咲く まるではかない花
希望のにおいを胸に残して
散り急ぐ あざやかな姿で
私に還りなさい 生まれる前に
あなたが過ごした大地へと
この腕(て)に還りなさい めぐり逢うため
奇跡は起こるよ 何度でも
魂のルフラン
祈るように まぶた閉じたときに
世界はただ闇の底に消える
それでも鼓動はまた動きだす
限りある永遠を捜して
私に還りなさい 記憶をたどり
優しさと夢の水源へ
あなたも還りなさい 愛しあうため
心も体もくりかえす
魂のルフラン
私に還りなさい 生まれる前に
あなたが過ごした大地へと
この腕(て)に還りなさい めぐり逢うため
奇跡は起こるよ 何度でも
魂のルフラン
