恋の酒
細川たかし Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
嫌いになったわけじゃない
部屋の灯(あかり)はつけてゆくわ
カギはいつものゲタ箱の中
きっと貴方はいつものことと
笑いとばすにちがいない
だけど今度は本気みたい
貴方の顔もちらつかないわ
女はいつも 待ちくたびれて
それでもいいと なぐさめていた
それでも恋は恋
多分貴方はいつもの店で
酒を飲んでくだをまいて
洗濯物は机の上に
短い手紙そえておくわ
今度生まれてくるとしたなら
やっぱり女で生まれてみたい
だけど二度とヘマはしない
貴方になんかつまずかないわ
男はいつも 待たせるだけで
女はいつも 待ちくたびれて
それでもいいと なぐさめていた
それでも恋は恋
男はいつも 待たせるだけで
女はいつも 待ちくたびれて
それでもいいと なぐさめていた
それでも恋は恋
それでも恋は恋
The song "恋の酒" by 細川たかし depicts the complicated nature of love and relationships. The first few lines talk about being tired of loving, which doesn't necessarily mean falling out of love with someone, but rather the exhaustion that comes with love. The singer talks about turning on the lights in the room and leaving the key in the usual place, suggesting that this may not be the first time that the lover has let her down or failed to show up, but still she's there with the hope that he'll come. She says that maybe he'll treat it like it's nothing, but she is serious this time and his face isn't on her mind, even if she's thinking about him.
The second stanza talks about the lover maybe being in a bar, leaving a letter on the desk next to the laundry. This implies the singer may be at the lover's home, and possibly waiting for him to come back. She fantasizes about being reborn as a woman again if given another chance, but she'd never make the same mistake with him. The last few lines of the chorus repeat the message that men always make women wait, leaving them exhausted, yet love is still just love.
