海を見に行かないか
郷ひろみ Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

僕の好きな海を君に
見せてあげたい
何も言わず沈む夕陽
夕焼け残し
夜を呼ぶ風吹けば
君は言うだろう来てよかったと
日帰りなどつまらないわと
寄せて返す波を見ていると

先のことがわからなくなるけど
砂に書いてみたい君の名を
僕の苗字の真下に

波打ちぎわ歩きながら
夢を語ろう
夢があればきっと愛も
長続きする
足あとを残すのさ
髪をなびかせ目を閉じる君
僕の胸もさざ波になる
濡れた砂の上に枯れたバラ
拾いあげて遠い海に流し
そっと呼んでみたい君の名を
僕の苗字に続けて
寄せて返す波を見ていると
先のことがわからなくなるけど

砂に書いてみたい君の名を
僕の苗字の真下に

Overall Meaning

These lyrics are from the song "海を見に行かないか" (Umi o Mi ni Ikanaika) by 郷ひろみ (Hiromi Go). The song is a beautiful and romantic invitation to spend time together by the sea. The singer expresses his desire to show his favorite sea to his loved one and watch the sunset together. The lyrics describe a serene and picturesque scene, with the setting sun leaving behind a beautiful twilight. The wind brings a sense of anticipation as it calls for the night to come. In this moment, the singer envisions his companion expressing how glad they are to have come, dismissing the idea of a mere day trip as uninteresting. While observing the waves coming towards the shore and receding, he admits that he loses sight of the future. However, he expresses the wish to write his loved one's name in the sand beneath his surname, symbolizing the desire to connect their lives and create lasting memories.
