レミオロメン Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

春は月に笑う様に
夏は花火に恋をする様に
秋は空を吸い込む様に
冬はどこまでも駆け抜ける様に

風に分け入ったいつもの月曜
朝焼けに染まる頃胸が苦しくてさ
それは夢の続きそれとも始まり

一掴みざらめ石心に溶け出した
いたずらに差す光が
君の髪の上滑り落ち
瞬きの間に世界の
色を変えてしまった
春は花が咲き乱れて
夏は夕日が胸を焦がした
秋は枯葉に風が巻いて
冬は雪が街ごと心を染めていった
奪っていった
虹に駆け寄った何気ない月曜
ちぎれそうな綿の雲
吹いても戻らない
それは夢の最中街灯は夜待ち
一光り二番星心に君がいる
大げさな格好で膨らみ続ける
この気持ち瞬きの間に世界の
引力を変えてしまった
春は月に笑う様に
夏は花火に恋をする様に
秋は空を吸い込む様に
冬はどこまでも駆け抜ける様に
僕は君に恋をした
僕は君に恋をしてしまった
日が昇って沈んでった

夜の向こうに明日が待ってた
待ってた待ってた待ってた

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of レミオロメン's song Shunkashuutou speaks of the different seasons and how each one affects people’s emotions and daily lives. The song starts with the singer describing how people smile at the moon during spring, how they fall in love with fireworks during summer, how they inhale the autumn air, and how they run through winter endlessly. The second verse tells a story of a person feeling anxious during a normal Monday morning when the sky is painted with the colors of a sunrise. The person wonders if the feeling is a continuation of a dream or the start of something new. Then, the lyrics describe a mischievous light that touches the person's hair, changing the world's colors in just one blink of an eye.

The third verse speaks of how the seasons affect people's emotions. Spring is the time when flowers bloom in abundance, summer is when people feel consumed by the fiery passion of the sunset, autumn is when the wind weaves through the dry leaves, and winter paints the entire city white with snow, dyeing people's hearts along with it. The song then ends with the singer confessing his love for someone and how time moves forward, with each day leading to another, traversing day and night, leading to the waiting tomorrow.
