Chocolove from AKB48 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
触れただけて溶けるように
甘くなる少しビターな
その愛しさ もう忘れられない
バスを待ってた
夏の停留所で
急に黙る2人
風が通り過ぎる
君は瞳をそっと つむって
LOVE こっち向いた
胸の奥のチョコレート
その銀紙 剥がすように
ときめいて僕の唇
誰よりも 君の近くにいた
緩いカーブに
バスが見えて来たら
魔法解くみたいに
そばで蝉が鳴いた
どんな顔すればいいのだろう?
空が眩しいふりをしながら
LOVE あっち向いた
君のキスはチョコレート
触れただけて溶けるように
甘くなる少しビターな
その愛しさ もう忘れられない
胸の奥のチョコレート
その銀紙 剥がすように
ときめいて僕の唇
誰よりも 君の近くにいた
君のキスはチョコレート
触れただけて溶けるように
甘くなるバスの座席に
置き忘れたあの麦わら帽子
The lyrics of "Chocolove" by AKB48 are about the sweetness and bitterness of love, likened to a chocolate kiss that melts at the touch. The singer recalls waiting at a bus stop with their love interest, both suddenly growing silent as a breeze passes through. They are unsure of how to proceed, but then the love interest closes their eyes, turns towards the singer, and kisses them, causing their heart to flutter like a piece of chocolate melting in their mouth. The singer reflects on the intensity of their feelings, how they will never forget this moment, and how they have always been closer to the love interest than anyone else. As they watch the bus curve towards them, they feel like a magic spell has been broken and the world has become brighter. But they are also filled with uncertainty, wondering what kind of face they should make and where their love might lead them.
The song captures the emotional intensity and bittersweetness of youthful love, as well as the uncertainty and sense of magic that often accompany such experiences. The chocolate metaphor adds an extra layer of sensory richness and sweetness, making the emotions feel more tangible and immediate. Overall, "Chocolove" is a beautifully executed love song that captures the fleeting but powerful moments of first love.
