藤原さくら Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
"Good morning, did you sleep well?"
Kiss, get up, wake up
"Good morning, how are you today?"
"What is your plan today, honey?
Let′s go for a walk, hey, my dear"
By the way, what time is it?
"Can you say goodbye?"
I don′t wanna leave you anyway
"Well then, don't go out, stay with me"
Hey, wake up baby, for a nice day
It's our day, it′s a nice day
Hey, wake up baby
Can you go out soon, baby?
Hey, wake up baby, for us
Hey, come on, get up, it′s time to go
Yeaheaheah
Kiss, get up, wake up
"Good morning, did you sleep well?"
Kiss, get up, wake up
"Good morning, how are you today?"
Sound of the alarm
I don't like it anyway
But the sound of you
What a great...
Again and again
I′ll say I miss you anyway
"Well then, don't go, stay with me"
Hey, wake up baby, for a nice day
It′s our day, it's a nice day
Hey, wake up baby
Can you go out soon, baby?
Hey, wake up baby, for us
Hey, come on, get up, it′s time to go
Yeaheaheah
Yeaheah

In this song, the singer wakes up to the sound of her partner's good morning kisses and asks what they plan to do that day. She suggests going for a walk together and asks what time it is, hinting that they should start their day soon. However, when her partner asks her to stay with them and not leave, she obliges and decides to spend the day together, even if it means changing their plans.
The singer describes the discomfort of waking up to the sound of an alarm and contrasts it to the joy of waking up to her partner's kisses. This reinforces the theme of the song, which is the happiness that comes from being with the one you love. The repeated phrases and playful melody give this song a lighthearted and catchy quality, similar to a playful love duet.
In all, "Good Morning" speaks to the feelings of joy and contentment that can be found in simple moments of togetherness. It is a reminder to cherish those moments and prioritize the people we love in our lives.
