悲しい気持ち
桑田佳祐 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
抱き合うたび溶けそうな瞬間にお別れ
夢で逢えたら あの日に帰ろう
夜空に舞う星に 願いをこめて
Just a man in love, oh yeah
涙に濡れて
心に咲く花は君の香り
やがて誰かと 恋におちても
胸に残る言葉は 消えないままに
泣くのはやめて 愛しい女性よ
君のことを今も 忘れられない
Just a man in love, oh yeah
悲しみの my heart
Just a man in love, oh yeah
愛されたあの頃が 遠ざかる
Anyone would be holdin' on
夏は終わり 夜風に身を病んで
I won't lose, if I just have you
いついつまでも君は my sweet babe
Just a man in love, oh yeah
涙に濡れて
Just a man in love, oh yeah
悲しみの my heart
Wow, wow, wow, just a man in love, oh yeah
またいつか逢えたなら hold me close to you
The lyrics in 桑田佳祐's song 悲しい気持ち (Kanashii kimochi) translate to "Sad Feelings," making it unsurprising that the song is about lost love. The song begins with the singer saying goodbye to his lover ("Last kiss to the summer goddess, every time we hug it feels like melting"), and then he daydreams about meeting her again ("If we meet in a dream, let's go back to that day / And make a wish upon a star dancing in the night sky").
Despite trying to move on from his past love ("Even if I fall in love with someone else someday / The words left in my heart will remain"), the singer cannot forget about his lost love and urges her to remember that he still can't forget about her ("Stop crying, my beloved woman / Even now, I can't forget about you"). The song ends with the singer expressing his love for his lost love, hoping to one day be able to hold her again ("If we meet again someday, hold me close to you").
Overall, 悲しい気持ち is a poignant and emotional song that captures the pain of lost love and the longing to hold on to what once was.
