I'm just a man
今市隆二 Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

愛してるなんて言葉に出来ない
プレゼントも贈れないそんな男の物語
傘のない rainy day 車に隠れたね
何も言わず抱き寄せてた
運命に kiss して sweet sweet memories

カッコつけても not a prince
臆病な I'm just a man

ステレオから just the way you are
聴いていた

涙で育ててきた story (story)
ルーズで不器用で I'm sorry
だけど baby
I love you 君しかいないよ
Darling darling oh darling

壊れそうな my voice your heart
彷徨ってた
長い旅でしたそして君でした
たどり着いた場所

涙で育ててきた story (story)
ルーズで不器用で I'm sorry
だけど baby
I love you 君しかいないよ

Darling darling
ポケットに小さな小さな diamond ring

He compares his fragile voice to their strong heart, and he sees their relationship as a long journey that led him to the place where he finally found love.
