玉置成実 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
手をのばしてるんだ
遠くとおい場所へと
風に吹かれ歩いていく
描いてた未来握りしめて
遥か彼方見つめてるんだ
生まれ来た意味を知りたくて
抱きしめること今、選ぼう
僕たちはみなきっと
手をのばしてるんだ
失くせないものに向かって
輝いた夢だけを たぐりよせながら
遠くとおい場所へと
いつか見てた空の色が
涙するたびに汚れてく
頬を拭ったら気づくだろう
消えていく光の強さ
僕たちはみなきっと
ただ探してるんだ
答えがそこになくても
誰も知らない自分 信じてみたくて
遠くとおい場所へと
僕たちはみなきっと
手をのばしてるんだ
果てしない空を目指して
鼓動が響き合えば
独りじゃないから
遠くとおい場所へと
僕たちはみなきっと
手をのばしてるんだ
失くせないものに向かって
輝いた夢だけを たぐりよせながら
遠くとおい場所へと
In "Sanctuary" by 玉置成実, the lyrics describe the journey that we all take as we navigate through life. The song starts by stating that we all reach out towards something, even if that something is far away and difficult to attain. The wind blows us forward and we grasp onto the dreams that we once held in our hands, looking towards the distance horizon. The singer speaks of the desire to understand why we were born and what our purpose is in life. Even in the face of potential loss, we should hold tight to what we have now and cherish it.
The chorus repeats the idea that we all reach out our hands towards something we cannot see, but we are all searching for something invaluable. The dreams that we once held onto tightly are what we pull towards us as we journey towards a faraway place. The singer speaks of how the colors of the sky that we once imagined have become diluted with each tear we shed, but we must continue to walk forward and believe in ourselves, even if the answers we seek are not readily available.
In the final chorus, the singer reminds us that we are not alone in our journey. Our heartbeats embrace each other, and we all reach towards the vastness of the sky, clinging onto our shining dreams as we journey towards an unknown place.
