Lyrics in Romaji[edit]
Mado ni kobereru, aoi hizashi wa
Suuji no nai yuka no tokei
Shuro no kaaten, kaze ni yureba
Tooi natsu no yaketa kaori
Kare no ude no naka
Watashi maru de marionetto
Ima
Kokoro ayatsurarete majutsu'
ULTIMA no ai wa
Hitomi no naifu
Mitsumeraretara
Ugokenai
ULTIMA no ai wa
Hitomi no naifu
Douzo yosomi o shinaide
Kono mama
Lyrics in English[edit]
Peeking through the window, the faint rays of sunshine
Are a numberless clock on the ground
When the SHURO curtains sway in the wind
The fragrance of a distant scorching summer
In his arms
I am a complete puppet
Now
Magic is pulling the strings of my heart
ULTIMA love is
The knife of the eye
If it stares at me
I cannot move
ULTIMA love is
The knife of the eye
Please don't look away
Stay like this
