This Night
Chemistry Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

They say, Love the dream, and the love they share
You're now in the sun, and I was left in the shadow
But I know, I am along side of you

Anata wa shitteru
Subete no mo wa sou hikui hoube nakarerukoto
Watashi wa shitteru
Sugoshita jikan wa mou watashi wo kaetano

Subete wasureru tameni wa jikan ga hitsuyoudakara
Mousugoshidake konomamadeite hoshiino

Anata ni totte watashi wa tonaa huuni irebaiino
Watashi ni totte anata wa torikaeno kanaimono
This night, I'll be over you
Nandodemo nandodemo kurikaesuno
Ai no kotoba to konnanimo konnanimo itai omoi wo

Itsumade tsudukuno
Owaraserunara sou watashidatte wakatteruno
Hontou wa shitteta hajimarikara zutto

Kotoba no hosoi itode tsunagi yameta musubime wa
Chikadukeba chikaduku hodoni mienakunaru

Anata ni totte futari wa dorekeno imi wo motsuno
Watashi no naka de anata ga yubisakikara koboreteku
This night, I'll be over you
Nandodemo nandodemo tashikameruno
Ai no kioku to konnanimo konnanimo tsunoru omoi wo

Watashi no kimochi te ni toru yoni wakatteruhazu
Modorenaikoto zembu wakatteirunoni

Anata ni totte watashi wa donnahuuni irebaiino
Watashi ni totte anata wa torikaeno kanaimono
This night, I'll be over you




Nandodemo nandodemo kurikaesuno
Ai no kotoba to konnanimo konnanimo itai omoi wo

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Chemistry's song This Night seem to be about a relationship that has ended, and one person is struggling to move on while the other appears to have already done so. The opening lines reflect this, as the singer acknowledges that the love they once shared is now just a dream, and their former partner has moved on and is now in the sun, while they remain in the shadow. However, even though they know they're no longer together, the singer feels like they're still alongside their former partner.


The central theme of the song seems to be the struggle to let go of someone you still have feelings for, and the singer knows that in order to forget everything, they need time. They want to forget everything just so they can move on. They're aware that dealing with painful memories can be hard, but they don't want to stay stuck in the past forever. Whether or not they're successful in doing so is up to interpretation. Ultimately, the song highlights that sometimes letting go is easier said than done.

あなたは知ってる
全てのものは そう
低いほうへ流れること
わたしは知ってる
過ごした時間は もう
わたしを変えたの

全て 忘れるためには 時間が必要だから
もう少しだけ このままでいて欲しいの

あなたにとって
わたしはどんなふうにいればいいの
わたしにとって
あなたは取り替えのきかないもの
This Night, I'll be over you.
何度でも何度でも繰り返すの
愛の言葉と
こんなにもこんなにも痛い想いを

いつまで続くの
終わらせるなら そう
わたしだって分かってるの
本当は知ってた 始まりからずっと
こうなるんだって

言葉の細い糸で 繋ぎ止めた結び目は
近づけば近づくほどに 見えなくなる

あなたにとって
二人はどれだけの意味を持つの
わたしの中で
あなたが指先からこぼれてく
This Night, I'll be over you.
何度でも何度でも確かめるの
愛の記憶と
こんなにもこんなにも募る想いを

わたしの気持ち
手に取るように分かってるはず
戻れないこと 全部分かっているのに

あなたにとって
わたしはどんなふうにいればいいの
わたしにとって
あなたは取り替えのきかないもの
This Night, I'll be over you.
何度でも何度でも繰り返すの
愛の言葉と
こんなにもこんなにも痛い想いを
