NEVA EVA
島谷ひとみ Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
くもりガラスの目には眩しくて
ポケットにしまいこんだ
秘めた願い
そっとこの手のひらで
確かめる
恋は足踏みして 仕事も空回り
少しくらいの勇気で
夢はリスクとリアル
それがあるから頑張れるはず
何度でも起き上がってみせる
転んだ擦り傷なら
大丈夫だって言い聞かせるの
笑顔で振り向くから
太陽が照らし出す 熱い背中
歩くべき道筋を確かめる
鼓動が早くてもあせらず前向いて
自分の言葉で 伝えたい 今すぐ
決められたレールじゃない
わたしらしく羽ばたける道を
見つけたら 自由があるはず
明日への鍵鳴らして
ドアを開けたら未来へ続く
私が輝く時
本当に大切な希望を知ってたら
少しくらいの傷だって
癒せるわ 必ず
夢はリスクとリアル
それがあるから頑張れるはず
何度でも起き上がってみせる
転んだ擦り傷なら
大丈夫だって言い聞かせるの
笑顔で振り向くから
決められたレールじゃない
わたしらしく羽ばたける道を
見つけたら 自由があるはず
明日への鍵鳴らして
ドアを開けたら未来へ続く
私が輝く時
The lyrics to 島谷ひとみ's song Neva Eva are about facing a difficult morning and looking at oneself in the mirror. The cloudy glass reflects a dazzling, uncertain future. The singer keeps their hidden wishes in their pocket and gently confirms them in the palm of their hand. Love seems to be stuck in a standstill, and work feels like it's going in circles. However, with a little bit of courage, they believe they can move forward. Dreams come with risks and reality, but it is precisely because of these challenges that they can persevere. No matter how many times they fall, they will always get back up. Even if they have scraped wounds, they will reassure themselves that it's all right. They will turn around with a smile because their tomorrow is shining. The sun illuminates their passionate back as they confirm the path they should walk. Despite the rapid heartbeat, they won't panic and will face forward. They want to convey their own words right now. This is not a predetermined rail; it's a path where they can spread their wings and be themselves. Freedom should exist once they find it. They will ring the key to tomorrow and open the door that leads to the future. It is their time to shine.

It's a bad morning when I wake up, in the mirror
The eyes behind the cloudy glass are dazzling
I put my secret wishes in my pocket
And quietly confirm them with my palm
Love hesitates and work goes nowhere
I can go forward with just a little bit of courage, believe it
Dreams are a mix of risk and reality, that's why I can try my best
I'll stand up as many times as it takes
If I stumble and get a scrape, I'll tell myself it's okay
Because I'll turn around with a smile
The sun shines on my hot back
I confirm the path I should walk on
Even if my heartbeat is fast, I'll stay calm and look ahead
I want to convey it with my own words, right now
I found a path where I can spread my wings and be myself, not on predetermined rails
There should be freedom if I find it
I'll ring the key to tomorrow, open the door and continue to the future
When I shine
If I knew that hope was really important
Even a little bit of injury would heal, surely
Dreams are a mix of risk and reality, that's why I can try my best
I'll stand up as many times as it takes
If I stumble and get a scrape, I'll tell myself it's okay
Because I'll turn around with a smile
I found a path where I can spread my wings and be myself, not on predetermined rails
There should be freedom if I find it
I'll ring the key to tomorrow, open the door and continue to the future
When I shine

歌詞の素晴らしさとジャズの主旋律に歌のメロディ。
そのままで歌える歌唱力がやばすぎるので、もっとこの曲は評価されて欲しい

俺は好きなんだけど俺がニッチなのか。。。
ゲームの曲に採用されたりTVのテーマソングに採用されたり需要はあると思うんだけどね。
@marisanlanovalalisa4917
エイベックスみたいなゴミ会社じゃなかったらな、、
@taiheitsuchiya
大好きな曲の一つですが、初めてこのMVを見た22歳の頃、大人になればこんなアフターファイブがあるんだと思ってた。
@daim4942
この曲聞くと、とても元気が出ます。
@akizuki7470
このNeva Evaを初めて音楽番組で見た時、緑色の服を着ていたのをハッキリと覚えていて、曲とダンスに一瞬で心捕まれました。今も大好きで１日1回は再生してます。
