あいまいでいいよ
羊文学 Lyrics

The lyrics of 羊文学's song あいまいでいいよ reflect on the ambiguity of love and the hesitation to express true feelings. The song starts by describing lovers who do not fully know each other's feelings and how they often miss each other while chasing the shadow of romance depicted in typical love songs. Despite this ambiguity, the song suggests that spring still exists in remote places, where the wind blows the scent that cannot be seized.

The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "あいまいでいいよ" ("it's okay to be ambiguous") emphasizing the idea that it's fine not to know everything and not to express everything. The singer of the song is sitting on his balcony, listening carefully to the echoes of his white T-shirt flapping in the wind, and drowsily thinking about his relationship. He encourages himself to forget the truth, to avoid facing the fear of rejection or, perhaps, the need to confront his own emotions.

The final stanza presents a dream-like scenario in which the lovers walk hand in hand, unable to finish the coffee they carry, eventually mimicking a kiss. The whole ambivalent context is portrayed as something sweet and fuzzy, a vague and overwhelming reality. The song ultimately emphasizes the beauty of love, even in its ambiguity, and the idea that sometimes the warmth of a relationship may speak louder than words.
