Silent Snow
花澤香菜 (Kana Hanazawa) Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

少し早い冬の音
聞こえるかな離れてるけど
届くかな。。。
遠ざかる町の景色
降り注ぐ朝の光
繰り返す毎日が続いてく
同じ空見上げたあの日
キミを想う気持ち切なくて

もう一度だけ手を繋いで
優しく見つめ合えたらいいな
舞い降りてく雪に
寂しさを全部包み込むの今
形のない約束を
いつまでも信じてるから
きっといつか。。。
確かなのはひとつだけ
キミに出会って変わっていく
町の色空の青風の匂い
ありふれた言葉よりも
大切な事に気付いたから
いつの間にか巡って行く
季節に追い越されそうになっても
時を告げる鐘が
雪景色の中響きだすのほら

もう一度だけ手を繋いで
優しく見つめ合えたらいいな
舞い降りてく雪に
寂しさを全部包み込むの
いつの間にか巡って行く
季節に追い越されそうになっても

時を告げる鐘が
雪景色の中響きだすのほら

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Kana Hanazawa's song "Silent Snow" describe the feeling of missing someone special during the winter season. Starting off with the line "Can you hear the sound of winter coming a little bit early?" the song sets a cold, lonely mood that continues throughout. The singer wonders if their feelings are reaching the person they miss and longs to hold them once more, to look into their eyes and feel the warmth of their touch. The daily repetition of life feels endless and melancholic, making the moment of connection with their loved one all the more precious.

The snow becomes a powerful metaphor in this song - it falls and wraps everything up, including the singer's loneliness. It represents the uncertainties of life and how even the most fleeting moments can hold so much importance. The singer clings to a vague promise, a shapeless belief that someday things will be alright. They acknowledge that meeting this person has changed them, that they've come to understand the importance of small things like the color of the town or the smell of the air. As the seasons go by and time threatens to outpace them, the sound of the bell ringing through the snow reminds them that there is still hope, still something to hold onto.
