The narrow path behind the school continued straight towards the pool
My memories of you, along with the color of summer water, are receding

The promise that bound me to you, that day, on the way home...

Since I can't fulfill it now or anytime to come,
I wonder if someday I'll be rid of it...
You won't forget, will you? I know you can't forgive me
That's why I looked back so often

Your face, which got mad over trivial stuff and smiled about pinky swears
The stuff I packed in my tiny bag was ultimately nothing but my dreams

You've never, finally, arisen from the summer water...

I'm waiting at an empty pool
Because I promised you
When I try to go home, a splash rises up
And I stop my feet

Today, in the usual corridor, you and I might have missed each other

Since I can't fulfill it now or anytime to come,
I wonder if someday I'll be rid of it...
You won't forget, will you? I know you can't forgive me
That's why I looked back so often
