Moon
和久井映見 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
テーブルのキャンドルも
おびえていました 目をそらす
あなたが恋人
過去は過去 その人に ねぇ
何をしたの?
Gray Moon 彼女の指先が
Gray Moon グラスつかんだ
果実酒がはじけた
襟元が汚れた バラ色に染まった
それからは ひとりでいました
たよりない退屈に
かくれていました
君だけを 愛しているよと
10日ごと あなたから
電話がくるけど
Gray Moon なんにも信じない
Gray Moon 逢いに行かない
夏のシャツ汚れた
目の前がこわれた
襟元が震えた 秋風に抱かれた
傷つくたび優しさを
知るのは
やさしさが忘れる手段だからね
白いシャツ汚れた
恋心こわれた
夏のシャツ汚れた
悲しくて許した
白いシャツ汚れた
悲しくて許した
The song "Moon" by 和久井映見 is a melancholic love song that speaks of a failed relationship. The opening lines conveys the sadness and intensity of the situation, the singer describes the eyes of her ex as "火" which means fire in Japanese. The lit candles on the table also seem to fear and avoid his gaze, emphasizing the intensity of his presence. The lyrics imply that the singer's ex was unfaithful, with the question "何をしたの?" which means "What did you do?" referring to his past actions. The moon, which is gray and dimly lighted, serves as a metaphor for the singer's emotions and the state of the relationship.
The second half of the song sees her reflecting on the past and coming to terms with her hurt. She seeks solace in her solitude and dismisses the calls from her ex, who claims to still love her. She no longer believes his words and chooses to move on, marked by the stained collar of her white shirt, an indication of her past heartbreak. The repetition of the phrase "白いシャツ汚れた" which means "white shirt stained" throughout the song is a powerful symbol of the singer's pain and anguish.
