A面で恋をして
大滝詠一 Lyrics

The song "A面で恋をして" by 大滝詠一 is a love song about wanting to sweep someone special off their feet and having only eyes for them. The lyrics focus on the excitement and thrill of falling in love and the desire to spend time together. The artist compares this feeling to being on side A of a record, where the hit songs are played, with the intention of creating a memorable experience. The chorus is repeated twice with an enthusiastic "wow," to emphasize the importance of this romantic pursuit.

The first verse opens with the visual imagery of a "wink machine gun" piercing through the singer's chest, representing the impact this person has on him. The second verse talks about smiling and dancing on a donut-shaped record while donning a butterfly tie and carrying flowers, creating a whimsical and joyful atmosphere. The intense desire to have this person close is emphasized in the third verse where the singer states his intention to steal her away while cruising under a starry sky. The fourth verse refers to the other side of love and how the singer is helpless when it comes to this person. The fifth verse demonstrates the elegance and sophistication of the relationship by toasting to each other with white wine and going on a stylish drive, disregarding the seriousness of the situation. The song ends with a repetition of the chorus, emphasizing once again the singer's intense passion and eagerness to fall in love on side A.
