青空、ひとりきり
井上陽水 Lyrics

In this song, 井上陽水 reflects upon the human condition of wanting to find a place where one can belong, where one can feel happy and find joy in life. The song starts with the singer stating his eagerness to do anything that may bring him that happiness, and he is open to going to any place where he can find laughter. However, he has no desire to be around people who are sad and who he might have to console with words. He says he does not want to be in a situation where he has to cry along with someone else.

In the next verse, the singer speaks about how he would like to find something that he can hold onto and cherish but cannot seem to find it. It's not a physical object or a memory he is thinking of; rather, it is something that is in his heart. He states that he has always imagined that memories sparkle like stars, but even that is something he cannot hold onto. The following verse talks about how illusions of friendships and the sights of the sunset are not enough to occupy him. If he is to dream, he would instead dream of something that he can share with another person.

The singer then repeats the previous verse about wanting to do anything that brings happiness and laughter, but he doesn't want to be around individuals who are consumed by sadness. The song ends with the singer reminiscing about the blue sky that he encountered on the day he was by himself.
