Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
浜辺に砂が あるように
僕の心に たった一つの
小さな夢が ありました
風が東に 吹くように
川が流れて 行くように
時の流れに たった一つの
小さな夢は 消えました
淋しく 淋しく 星を見つめ
ひとりで ひとりで 涙にぬれる
何もかも すべては
終わってしまったけれど
何もかも まわりは
消えてしまったけれど
春に小雨が 降るように
秋に枯葉が 散るように
それは誰にも あるような
ただの季節の かわりめの頃
The song 空に星があるように by 荒木一郎 talks about the transience of life and the things that we hold dear. The first stanza sets the mood of the song by describing the vastness of the sky and the expanse of the beach. It then leads into the singer's heart where there exists a tiny dream. This dream is the only thing that gives the singer comfort. However, just like the wind that blows and the river that flows, time passes, and the dream disappears, leaving the singer feeling lonely and helpless.
In the second stanza, the singer describes the sorrow of staring at the stars alone and being submerged in tears. Everything in life comes to an end, and while the singer has lost everything, the changing seasons remain constant. Like the spring rain or the falling autumn leaves, everything comes to pass, and the singer too must face the inevitable.
Overall, the song offers a profound reflection on the fleeting nature of existence, the value of our dreams, and the importance of cherishing every moment.
