BOY
沢田知可子 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

砂の道づれに 哀しみをのせて
終る恋にすがる 私を捨てよう
あの夏限りのFortune少年のままで
昨日のことのように
微笑みかけるよ
私をどんなふうに
変えれば上手に愛せるの?
幻に励まされて
今もBoy 波の音が 潮風に揺られて
だからBoy......
夜の海が好きよ ふと足を止めて
焼けた素肌よりも 胸が熱かった
輝く星はずっと遠くに
逃げて行く気がして
涙も乾いていくよ
今もBoy 波の音が 潮風に揺られて
だからBoy......
私をどんなふうに
変えれば上手に愛せるの?
幻に励まされて




今もBoy 波の音が 潮風に揺られて
だからBoy......

In the end, the woman is left with nothing but her memories of the brief time she spent with her lover.


Overall, the lyrics of BOY are a haunting and introspective look at the aftermath of a failed relationship, with the woman struggling to come to terms with her new reality.
