デカメロン伝説
少年隊 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
高層ビルは遠い山脈
ながい睫毛の 君の瞳
南に浮かぶ 星のようだね
ああこぼれてく 時の砂
時代が変わっても
恋人は見つめ合って
Ah デカメロン woo (恋物語)
Ah デカメロン woo (千夜一夜さ)
Ah 10日間だけじゃ
語れやしない 愛している
狂おしいくらい
離さない oh I need you! You! You!
神に誓うよ
窓の向うに 浮かぶシルエット
ラクダに乗った 旅人達
赤や緑のネオン管に
街はまるで 白夜みたいさ
ああ鮮やかな 夢の色
過去から未来へと
僕達が 接吻れば
ロマンスが生まれる
Ah デカメロン woo (恋物語)
Ah デカメロン woo (千夜一夜さ)
Ah 男 女
悲劇に喜劇 守ってやる
永遠に いつまでも
真剣さ oh I need
You! You! You!
ついておいでよ
Love me true
Never leave me alone
Love me true
Never leave me alone
Love me true
Never leave me alone
Love me true
Love me true
Love me true
Ah デカメロン woo (恋物語)
Ah デカメロン woo (千夜一夜さ)
Ah 10日間だけじゃ
語れやしない 愛している
狂おしいくらい
離さない oh I need you! You! You!
神に誓うよ
The lyrics of 少年隊's song デカメロン伝説 paint a picture of a bustling city at night that is sometimes referred to as the "desert of love" due to its daunting and overwhelming nature. The city is symbolically represented by tall buildings that resemble a distant mountain range, and in this desert, the singer's love interest appears as the only star in the southern sky. The lyrics suggest that despite the many changes that happen with time, the couple's love remains constant, and they continue to make legends out of their story.
The chorus of the song highlights the idea of the Decameron, a collection of tales from the 14th-century written by Giovanni Boccaccio. The Decameron was a book filled with stories, and the idea of ten-day-long storytelling sessions is incorporated into the song. The chorus suggests that even ten days of storytelling could not do justice to the intensity of the love that the singer feels for the person they are singing about. Whether it is a love story or the Arabian Nights, their love is all-consuming, and they swear by God to never let go.
In conclusion, the lyrics of 少年隊's song デカメロン伝説 speak of a love that transcends time and is intense enough to create legends. The song provides a fascinating window into the cultural nuances of 1980s Japan and the importance given to literature and storytelling in their pop culture.
