コーヒー
奥田民生 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
傘さして わざわざ出かけてみようとしてやめて
まだまだ雨は 地味ながらいつまでも続く
休みが必要だ テレビがそう言ってる
コーヒーで一息いれろと言ってる なるほど
うらやましい もう30だからと言うことで さすがにやらないが
休みが必要だ お前もそう言ったろう
青春を返せとか何とか言ってたろう いつか
休みは必要だ みんなもそう言ってる
そこにはいい事があるはずと言ってる
たぶん そうだろうと言ってる
まだまだ雨は これでもかとまだまだ
とにかく雨だ どこまでもいつまでも続く
そのうち空が もち上がる あきらめる 消える
明日晴れたら釣だ
The lyrics to "コーヒー" by 奥田民生 (Kohi by Okuda Tamio) express a sense of contentment and curiosity in the midst of rain. The singer wonders why it feels pleasant to spend time during the rain, even though they had initially considered going out by opening an umbrella. The rain continues relentlessly, its unassuming presence persisting. The song acknowledges the need for breaks and relaxation, as the television suggests and advises to take a breather with a cup of coffee. The line about children facing difficulties and playing wholeheartedly expresses both envy and resignation as the singer acknowledges their age and the way they approach life.
The lyrics convey the idea that everyone needs a break, as the singer remembers someone saying it and urging them to return their youth. Rest and leisure are essential, as everyone acknowledges, and there must be something good waiting in that moment of respite. The rain, though it seems endless, will eventually clear up and fade away. The song concludes with hope for a sunny day tomorrow, indicating that even after experiencing rain, there is anticipation for positive moments to come.
