街の灯りがとてもきれいね
ヨコハマブルーライト・ヨコハマ
あなたとふたり幸せよ

いつものように愛の言葉を
ヨコハマブルーライト・ヨコハマ
私にくださいあなたから

歩いても歩いても小舟のように
私はゆれてゆれてあなたの腕の中

足音だけがついて来るのよ
ヨコハマブルーライト・ヨコハマ
やさしいくちづけもう一度

歩いても歩いても小舟のように
私はゆれてゆれてあなたの腕の中

あなたの好きなタバコの香り

ヨコハマブルーライト・ヨコハマ
二人の世界いつまでも

Overall Meaning

The song "Blue Light Yokohama" by 吉幾三 (Ichikawa Kikusaburō) talks about the scenic beauty of Yokohama city as seen through the singer's eyes.

The singer requests their lover to say words of love to them as usual, amidst the beautiful surrounding lights of Yokohama. The singer then talks about how they feel as if they are riding a small boat, as they walk together, and feels as if they are swaying in their lover's arms, enjoying each other's company. The sound of their footsteps is the only sound that can be heard in the background.
