Thanks, naoko, for the translation. I could tell just from the title and mood that this was a very romantic song, which is one of the reasons I really like it. Further translation would make it easier to discuss, but as the title already implies, the narrator is saying "goodbye." To whom is he saying goodbye? A lover, we'd assume... but why? It does seem that the entire album "Merveilles" revolves around the central story of a lover passing on, leaving the narrator lonely and sad. I think Gackt was trying to go for a very romantic concept of love overcoming even death, but without full translations of all the songs, it's hard to be certain. If anyone knows where some translations can be found, please post them here.
