君に涙のくちづけを
山口百恵 Lyrics

These lyrics are from the song "君に涙のくちづけを" (Kimi ni Namida no Kuchizuke wo) by 山口百恵 (Momoe Yamaguchi). The song tells the story of a bittersweet farewell between two people who know they will soon be separated. The opening lines describe the Akashiya avenue in town, which symbolizes the approaching winter and the anticipation of parting ways. The floating clouds represent a sense of transience and the desire to escape from the inevitable separation.

The singer of the song already knows that their time together is limited and accepts it with a smile and a nod. The lyrics then emphasize that the tears shining on their cheeks are not of sadness but of love. The intense feeling in the singer's heart is not expressed through tears, but through the fiery passion that love ignites. They acknowledge that anyone can see how wonderful the person they are saying goodbye to is.

As the winter wind blows, signaling the arrival of winter, memories become lost and the singer feels lost in their thoughts. It is suggested that both individuals secretly share the same loneliness. They desperately want to receive a kiss from the person they are parting with, and the intensity in their chest is not tears but the symbolic sound of love disappearing. The lyrics conclude by reiterating that anyone can see how wonderful the person being bid farewell to is.
