カヒミ・カリィ Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Kahimi Karie
Pour elle le jeu n'existe pas
Je sais que ce qu'elle ne sait pas
Je l'aime bien plus que moi

Kahimi Karie
Ca vous le savez mieux que moi
Elle dit un peu n'importe quoi

Ca n'est jamais pour moi

Elle a refait ses yeux
Elle a arrangé ses cheveux
Sans savoir pourquoi
Si c'est pour elle ou pour moi

Kahimi Karie
Ca n'est pas un secret d'état
Elle a une petite voix
Qu'on entend plus que moi

Kahimi Karie
J'ai beau lui craquer tous mes doigts
[C'est n'importe quoi...]
Puis la coller sur le microis [ici aussi...]
Elle revient toujours à moi

Elle s'allonge sur le lit (bis)
Elle avale des biscuits (bis)
Sans savoir pourquoi
Si c'est pour elle ou pour moi

Elle a refait ses yeux
Elle a arrangé ses cheveux

Elle s'allonge sur le lit
Kahimi Karie...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Kahimi Karie et moi" by カヒミ・カリィ are about the singer's love for Kahimi Karie, a Japanese singer-songwriter. The singer admires Kahimi's carefree and playful personality, stating that for Kahimi, life is not a game. The singer also reveals that there are things that Kahimi does not know that they do, but despite this, they love her more than they love themselves.

The singer acknowledges that it is well-known that Kahimi speaks recklessly, but they never take offense to it. They also mention Kahimi's physical appearance, noting that she has recently had eye surgery and changed her hairstyle without knowing whether it was for herself or for someone else. The singer admits that they often try to impress Kahimi but it all seems pointless as Kahimi always comes back to them.

The song ends with the image of Kahimi lying on a bed and eating biscuits, leaving the purpose behind these actions ambiguous. The repeated lines "elle a refait ses yeux" (she redid her eyes) and "elle a arrangé ses cheveux" (she styled her hair) suggest that Kahimi is trying to change herself for someone else, but it is unclear whether it is for the singer or for herself.

Overall, the lyrics of the song convey a sense of admiration, confusion, and uncertainty towards Kahimi Karie, as the singer tries to understand her actions and feelings towards them.
