女の波止場
森進一 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
死ぬほど好きな 人だから
あなたの名だけ 呼んでいる
船の汽笛も
ああ 泣く波止場
可愛いかもめも貰い泣き
独りはつらい やるせない
すがりもできぬ 淋しさは
船がわたしを
ああ 駄目にする
可愛いかもめも貰い泣き
流れの花の恋だから
真赤に咲いて 散るさだめ
あなたをひとり 乗せてゆく
船の無情が
ああ たまらない
可愛いかもめも貰い泣き
The lyrics of 森進一's song 女の波止場 depict a woman standing alone on a deserted pier, watching her love sail away on a ship. The woman is devastated at the thought of being separated from the person she loves so much that she could die for him. The desperation and pain she feels is evident as she calls out his name, while the ship's whistle blows in the background. The woman is unable to find solace in anything, not even the company of the lovely seagulls that cry along with her.
The lyrics are rich in imagery and evoke powerful emotions. The song speaks about the universal feeling of love and loss and the pain that comes with it. Ironically, the woman is left behind on the pier with nothing but her pain, while the man sails off, leaving her completely alone. The song highlights the unfairness of love and how it can sometimes be a source of great pain and suffering.
Overall, 女の波止場 is a poignant and melancholic song that captures the essence of heartbreak and the complexity of human emotions.
