Shinkirou
Blu-Swing Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

夕なぎの髪はしとやかに
恋に乱れようとはしない
あまねく誘う

貴方の目さえうつろで

葡萄酒のあつい香りから
たちこめる嘘でかまわない

女はたぶん
散りぎわが華一途に

はかない夢なら
きれいに見るもの
さめても消えない二人よ

泣かせないで泣かせないで
抱かれればいい
蜃気楼(まぼろし)でもたわむれでも
愛に見えるなら

悔む程女に生まれて
刺も蜜もかざれるけれど
素肌を寄せる
その前ぶれに見つめて

このまま夜へと
落ちればいいのに
やさしい言葉はいらない

泣かせないで泣かせないで
せめてもの愛
蜃気楼(まぼろし)でも信じるだけ
とけてしまうまで

泣かせないで泣かせないで
抱かれればいい

蜃気楼(まぼろし)でもたわむれでも
愛に見えるなら
