Petal

Lyrics: ayumi hamasaki
Music: Kunio Tago
Arrangement: Yuuta Nakano

On my way home
On the usual path
I met with
A single unfamiliar flower

I wasn't really fond
Of it's color, shape, and all else
Yet I was completely
Captivated by it

Loves me, loves me not. Loves me, loves me not
Plucking off one petal at a time
The last remaining petal
If only it can land on "he loves me"...

When I woke this morning
The flower was here
And had bloomed
Without showing a fragment of fear

That must surely be why
I was attracted to it
I'll carefully
Add water to it

Loves me, loves me not. Loves me, loves me not
Plucking off one petal at a time
The last remaining petal
Can I entrust this to fate?

Loves me, loves me not. Loves me, loves me not
Plucking off one petal at a time
The last remaining petal
If only it can land on "he loves me"...

Farewell, farewell
Plucking off one petal at a time
The last remaining petal
If it lands on "he loves me not"...
