もっともっと・・・
篠原涼子 Lyrics

ねえどんな夜を
通り過ぎてきたの?
きっと損な回り道を選んできたの?
ねえだけど恋は
そんなことないよね
だってちょっと見えない
理解(わか)らない遠い眼をするの
ときどきもっともっと輝いて

揺らめいて抱きしめて
愛を重ねる
Hold me Trust you
出来すぎた人生じゃ
あなたをちゃんと信じれない
たくましく生きてなきゃ
ほんとうの愛なんて誇れない

ねえずっとチャンス
なんかとてもないよね
明日も夜は
お互いすれ違いで電話だけだね
言い訳をあまり言わないあなたと
夢をあんまり
うまく伝えられない私と2人で
もっともっと優しくて
激しくて貫いて瞬間を捜すよ
Hold me Trust you
やり直す事だって
あなたとならば出来たい
おびえずに歩かなきゃ
ほんとうの場所なんて行けない

現実と永遠と偏見にとらわれず
見つめているからね...
もっともっと輝いて
揺らめいて抱きしめて
愛を重ねる
Hold me Trust you
出来すぎた人生じゃ
あなたをちゃんと信じれない
たくましく生きてなきゃ
ほんとうの愛なんて誇れない
おびえずに歩かなきゃ
ほんとうの場所なんて行けない
Hold me Trust you

(Hold me Trust you)
Hold me Trust you

Overall Meaning

In the song "もっともっと・・・" by 篠原涼子, the lyrics speak about the singer's reflections on their past choices and experiences in love. They wonder about the nights they have passed and if they have taken unnecessary detours along the way. Despite feeling confused and distant, they acknowledge that love is not like that. It is something that shines and flickers, something that they want to embrace and build upon. They express a desire to trust and be trusted, to believe in someone despite their own flaws and insecurities. The lyrics emphasize the importance of living authentically and fearlessly, as they realize that true love cannot be boasted about unless they lead a strong and genuine life.
