水色の恋
天地真理 Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

さよならの言葉さえ言えなかったの
白雪姫みたいな心しかない私
遠く去って行く人に涙だけが
ひとしずくひとしずく飛んで行くの

あの人にさよなら言わなかったの
さよならはお別れのことばだから
あなたの姿あなたの声は

いつまでも私の想い出に

ひとつだけ歩いてったあの人は
白雪姫みたいな愛を知ってるかしら
水色にのこされた影を追って
なぜかしら夢の中飛んでいるの

あの人にさよなら言わなかったの
さよならはお別れのことばだから
あなたの姿あなたの声は
いつまでも私の想い出に

あなたの姿あなたの声は
いつまでも私の想い出に

The chorus of the song emphasizes the persona's regret of not saying goodbye and how their loved one will always be a part of their memory.

The third verse talks about watching their loved one leave alone while wondering if they know the depth of love they share.
