銀色の週末
岡本真夜 Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

改札で待ってた
家で待ちきれなくて
一秒でも早く
あなたに会いたくて
寒さなど感じなかった
今年初めての雪
冷えきった頬に触れて
「バカだな」ってしかられたけど

あたたかい
あなたの手のぬくもりに
泣いてしまった
まだ誰も入ってない真っ白な公園
二つの足跡が並んでついてゆく
定期入れの中の写真
今日は必要ないの
ポケットでつなぐ指を
強く強く握りしめてた
泣き虫でわがままだけど
私の手を離さないでね
また次に会える日まで
このぬくもり覚えておこう
泣き虫でわがままだけど
私の手を離さないでね

離さないから
離れないでね

Overall Meaning

These lyrics are from the song "Gin'iro no Shumatsu" by Mayoh Okamoto, also known as "Silver Weekend." The song tells a story about a couple's winter weekend. The singer is waiting at the station for her partner, unable to contain her excitement to meet him. She can't feel the cold as she sees the snowfall for the first time this year. Her partner scolds her for touching the cold snow with her bare hands, but then holds her hands to warm them up, and the touch of his warmth brings her to tears.

The couple walks to a white park with no one else around, and they hold hands tightly while they feel each other's warmth. The singer has a photo of her partner in her wallet, but today she doesn't need it as he is there with her. She admits she is a crybaby and selfish but begs him not to let go of her hand. She wants to remember this warmth until they meet again.

The lyrics describe the excitement and happiness one feels during a long-awaited reunion with a loved one, even if it's just a short weekend. The experience of being cold and then warmed up by the touch of the partner's hand is beautifully captured in the lyrics.
