メモリーグラス
堀江淳 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

水割りをください 涙の数だけ
今夜は思いきり 酔ってみたいのよ
ふられたんじゃないわ わたしがおりただけよ
遊びの相手なら 誰かを探してよ

ゆらり揺らめいて
そうよあたしは ダンシングドール
踊り疲れても もう何処へも行けない

ねェ... キラキラと輝くグラスには
いくつの恋が溶けてるの

水割りをください 涙の数だけ
あいつなんか あいつなんか あいつなんか
飲みほしてやるわ

水割りをください 想い出の数だけ
今夜はいつもより 夜が長いから...
たとえばあいつの事 憎めるとしたならば
少しは心も軽くなるかしら

ゆらり揺らめいて
そうよあたしは ダンシングドール
痛む素足でも ひとりきり踊るのよ

ねェ... キラキラと輝くグラスには
いくつの嘘が溶けてるの

水割りをください 想い出の数だけ
あいつなんか あいつなんか あいつなんか
飲みほしてやるわ

ゆらり揺らめいて
そうよあたしは ダンシングドール
踊り疲れても もう何処へも行けない

ねェ... その歌をかけるのはやめてよ
グラスの中薄くなるから...

水割りをください 愛した数だけ




あいつなんか あいつなんか あいつなんか
ただの通り雨...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to 堀江淳's song メモリーグラス (Memory Glass) tell the story of a woman trying to forget a failed romance by drinking and dancing. She requests as many glasses of water mixed with whiskey as the number of tears she has shed. The singer declares that she has not been dumped but is just looking for a new partner for a temporary affair. She then dances as a "dancing doll," seeking to forget her heartache.


The lyrics of the chorus ask how many lies and loves have dissolved in the sparkling glasses in her hand, and how many cherished memories she would like to forget. She speaks of her feet hurting from dancing, but that she can't go anywhere even after she's tired. The singer plans to drink until she forgets everything, and finally wishes for glasses of whiskey equal to the amount of love she felt. She declares that the man who broke her heart is nothing but a passing shower.


The lyrics paint a picture of a woman trying to forget a past love by partying and drinking. The prominent theme in this song is the need for distraction and the attempt to forget. It is a sad and lonely story that many individuals can relate to because everyone at some point experiences heartbreak and the need to numb or run away from these feelings. However, the song also reminds us that sooner or later, we will have to confront our emotions.

昭和56年の秋、高校2年生でしたが文化祭で当時大ヒットしていたこの曲を女装して歌いました。大ウケしましたが恥ずかしい思い出です😅
