流星とバラード
東京スカパラダイスオーケストラ Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
消えてた思いを辿り 走りだす記憶
まわりも見えないスピードに
優しく奏でるバラードを
雨が降る街の光に 未来が霞んでる
眠れない夜の夢に 君は悲しんだ
悩んだメロディー抱きしめて
モノクロの夜にさよならを
終わらない幸せ 体に委ねて
真っ白な光でも 眩しくないほどに
曝け出したら もう 答えは既に手の中に
まわりも見えないスピードに
優しく奏でるバラードを
悩んだメロディー抱きしめて
モノクロの夜にさよならを
小さな眼の中に 光る星一つ
終わらない幸せ 体に委ねて
車で聴いていた 優しいバラード

The singer holds onto a troubled melody, bidding farewell to the monochrome night. They find solace in an everlasting happiness, willingly surrendering their body to it. The lyrics suggest that even though surrounded by bright light, it no longer blinds them. Once they expose themselves fully, the answer they seek is already within their grasp.
