ひと夏のアクトレス
中山美穂 Lyrics

The song "ひと夏のアクトレス" by 中山美穂 is about an actress who is torn between her professional life and personal emotions. In the first verse, she is at a seaside train station with someone she has kissed and is smiling, hoping to see them again tomorrow. However, in the second half of the verse, she turns away and becomes a pale actress, as though she has to put on a facade for her acting role. The chorus repeats the phrase "Don't fall in love" as a warning to herself not to let her personal feelings get in the way of her acting career. The second verse describes the actress crying behind a glass window as she watches the person she kissed fade away in the distance.

The lyrics are reflective of the real-life struggle actors often face with their public and private personas. They must maintain a professional image while also experiencing personal emotions. The song portrays the actress as having difficulty separating her personal life from her career, and as though she is afraid of losing control over her emotions.
