Melody
崎谷健次郎 Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

月から届いた
光がピアノを弾く
なつかしく響くバラード
唇追いかける
いまきみはどこで
暮らしているのだろう
残された古いRecord
誰とももう聞かなくなった

ふれられない気持ち
今夜どうしようか
あの銀色のMelody
瞳にあふれる場面
戻ることのないまぶしい微笑み
胸に消えないMelody
涙に似ている香り
きみのその名前好きだった
冷たいグラスで
氷が泣いている
あれから越したこの部屋は
誰とも眠ったことがない
きみを忘れられる
夢はみつからない
あの銀色のMelody
肩越しに見てた夜空
夏のくちづけと冬のためいきと
いまも消えないMelody
耳をふさいでもずっと
きみのその声が聞こえてる
la la...
出かける店さえ
思いつかない時間
脱いだジャケットが静かに
記憶を抱きしめようとするたびに
Melody 瞳にあふれる場面
戻ることのないまぶしい微笑み
いまも消えないMelody
耳をふさいでもずっと

きみのその声が聞こえてる
la la la...

Overall Meaning

These lyrics are from the song "Melody" by 崎谷健次郎 (Kenjiro Sakiya). The song portrays feelings of nostalgia and longing for a lost love. The moonlight, which symbolizes a distant connection, plays the piano and the melody from it resounds like a familiar ballad. The singer wonders where the person he cherishes is now living and laments the fact that they no longer listen to the old records together. The lyrics hint at the unattainable feelings and uncertainty of what to do with the silver melody tonight. The song describes a scene that overflows in his eyes, a shining smile that will never return, and a melody that remains in his heart forever. The scent resembles tears, and he admits that he still loves their name. The singer's room, where he moved after the separation, has never been slept in by anyone else, and he struggles to forget the person he lost and find a dream. The lyrics mention the night sky he used to look at, summer kisses, and winter sighs that can't be returned. The melody is still lingering in his ears, even when he tries to cover them, and he feels connected to the voice of the person he loves. The song concludes with a reflection on the time that doesn't even bring up the idea of going to a certain place and how the jacket, a symbol of memory, tries to hold onto and embrace the past.
