指輪物語
斉藤由貴 Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

一度指にはめたら
二度と外せないのね
きらめく魔法の指輪

三つ願い事がかなうと
あなたは言うの
優しく微笑みながら

永遠の命? 金貨と宝石?
いいえ違う願うのは一つよ

あなたのそばにいたい
死ぬまであなたの手に
光る指輪になりたい

人を純粋に愛してた
子供の頃に
戻れる二人でいると

好きよただそれだけの言葉
ささやくたびに
心は揺れる葡萄酒

長い間待ち焦がれていたのよ
そうよ未来塗り変える誰かを

あなたのそばにいたい
死ぬまでそばにいたい
それが私の願いよ

手と手を重ねじっと見つめて
薬指はあなたのもの

あなたのそばにいたい
死ぬまであなたの手に
光る指輪になりたい

あなたのそばにいたい
死ぬまでそばにいたい
それが私の願いよ

La La La La・・・
