工藤静香 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
粉雪が踊る 白い帰り道
ラジオを消して 車を停めたら
空にとけそうね
膝に置いた ゆびさき
あなたのこと 待ってる
もしも 帰すつもりならば
ただ ほほえんで
好きと言ってね
やさしい夜 忘れたくない
ずっと 雪にかこまれて
ふたり このままで 困るのもいいわ
窓が曇って 揺れる 街灯り
胸が あたたかい
とても あなたが近い
ためいきまで 奪われ
もしも 帰したくないなら
ただ みつめてね
ワイン ひとくちの嘘でも
いま 信じてる
もしも 愛してくれるなら
ただ 抱きしめて
あなたの瞳 忘れたくない
The lyrics to 工藤静香's song "Wine hitokuchi no uso" describe a romantic moment shared between two individuals on a snowy night. The singer is tempted by the warm breath of her companion and the dancing snowflakes on their way home. They turn off the radio and park the car, and the singer remarks that they are so close that they could melt into the sky. She waits eagerly for her companion, placing her finger on her knee. The singer asks her companion to simply smile if they plan to leave, but confess their love even if it's just a one sip lie. The gentle night is so unforgettable, and the singer wishes to be surrounded by snow forever. The couple doesn't mind being stranded together, and the singer's heart feels warm as the streetlights sway. The singer sighs, feeling like her companion is so close that they can almost steal her breath away. She asks her partner to simply gaze at her if they don't want to leave, and tells them that she believes a one sip lie is true. If her companion loves her, the singer wants to be held closely, and she never wishes to forget the gaze of her companion's eyes.
The lyrics present a romantic evening, which is accentuated by the snowy night and the warmth shared between the two lovers. The song evokes emotions of longing, passion, and desire, capturing the essence of a moment when someone is so close to us that they almost feel like a part of us. The singer's request for their lover to lie and assure them with even a little sip of wine that they are loved, highlights the desire for emotional validation in a romantic relationship. The song has a timeless quality to it, as it speaks to the universal human emotions of love and companionship.
