小さな体験
郷ひろみ Lyrics

The lyrics to 郷ひろみ's song 小さな体験 ("Little Experience") describe the singer's admiration and affection for a woman whom he finds incredibly beautiful and alluring ("Why do you become so beautiful like that? / I want you to be only mine / No matter who invites you, pretending not to know is nice"). The singer cherishes the woman's captivating gaze and wishes for her to always look at him this way ("Why do you have such lovely eyes? / Always keep looking only at me / When someone calls you, pretending not to hear is nice").

The lyrics also evoke a memory of the two first meeting at a coffee shop, where there was a canary ("For the first time we met, there was a canary / At the coffee shop"). The singer wonders why the woman was alone, chewing on a straw ("Why were you chewing on a straw alone?"). Later on, the two share a kiss by the seaside under the moonlight, but the woman sheds a tear and the singer wonders why ("Why did you shed a tear that time? / No matter who invites you, pretending not to know is nice").
