東京タワー
天野月 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

東京タワーの見える部屋に
住むのが夢だったと
夜更けの街歩きながら ふいに思い出す

飛べない鳥が いることを
叶わない夢が あることを
傷つきすぎて知ったんだ 東京に来て
赤いドレスの東京タワー
綺麗だけれど 泣いてるみたい
一人ぼっちの東京タワー
私と同じだね

ほんとは誰もが淋しいから
浮かれた街つくって
そそぎこんだお酒だけが 胸を埋めてゆく

絵のない絵本を 見るように
夢のない夜が ふけてゆく
失くしたものは何だろう 東京に来て

赤いドレスの東京タワー
暗い夜空に まっすぐ立って
一人ぼっちの東京タワー
孤独を抱きしめて

赤いドレスの東京タワー
都会の夜に 負けないように




一人ぼっちの東京タワー
輝き続けてる
