B'z Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
勝ち誇るように笑われても それほどイヤじゃないよ
生まれてくる前 聞いたようなその深い声
それだけで人生のオカズになれるくらいです
すべて知るのは到底無理なのに 僕らはどうして
あくまでなんでも征服したがる カンペキを追い求め (血眼で)
愛しぬけるポイントがひとつありゃいいのに
もしそれが君のほんのイチブだとしても
何よりも確実にはっきり好きなところなんだ (何が何でも)
困った時少し まゆげを曲げてみせたり
抱きよせるとホッとするような柔らかさだったり
すべて掴んだつもりになれば また傷つくだろう
ほんとに要るのは有無を言わせない 圧倒的な手ざわり (oh, you're the one)
愛しぬけるポイントがひとつありゃいいのに
君にしかわからないこと 僕だけが見えていること
どれもホントのこと
すべて何かのイチブってことに 僕らは気づかない
愛しい理由を見つけたのなら もう失わないで (oh, you're the one)
愛しぬけるポイントがひとつありゃいいのに
それだけでいいのに
The lyrics of B'z's song "Ichibu to Zenbu" express the idea that despite having only known one aspect of someone (represented as "Ichibu" which means "just a part"), it could be enough to love them wholeheartedly. The singer suggests that knowing everything about a person is impossible and yet, people still strive for perfection and conquer everything in sight. However, the singer implies that it's not necessary to know everything about a person to love them deeply. In fact, sometimes the smallest things can be enough to make someone lovable, such as the way they curl their eyebrows when they're troubled or their soothing embrace. The singer believes that if they can find just one point to love about someone, it should be enough to appreciate them fully.
The song expresses the idea that love isn't about knowing everything about a person, but rather falling in love with the small parts that make them unique. The singer suggests that if they could find one aspect of a person to love, then they would never lose them. The song seems to be saying that oftentimes, people can become fixated on the idea of perfection, wanting to know everything about someone before they can love them. But in reality, love can transcend the boundaries of knowledge and understanding.
Overall, the lyrics of "Ichibu to Zenbu" speak to the deeper aspects of love and relationships, suggesting that true love can be found in the smallest things.
