Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood
Countdown Mix Masters Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey! Tell me why can't live together
Tell me why can't stop fighting now
いくつもの微笑 引き裂かれる

街角に聞こえる ささやきが耳元かすめる
悲しみの声が 響きわたってる
僕達は争うために 生まれてきたんじゃない
絶え間ない 優しさ抱きしめて
夢はただ願って かなうものじゃないから
そう闇をつき抜けて 思い切り走り出すのさ
Hey! 壁が音たてて 崩れ落ちる前に
すわり込んでいる 訳にいかないさ
Hey! 真実おきざりに あてもなく大地に
すわり込んでいる 訳にはいかないさ
明日は子供たちの 瞳に何を写すの
汚れない心が 教えてくれる
通りすぎる人は 光の中歩きだす
手のひらの上で 時を踊ってる
メニューを見てるだけじゃ
そうさ何も食べられない
風が冷たいのは 誰も悪くない 悪くないんだ
Hey! Tell me why can't live together
Tell me why can't stop fighting now
いくつもの微笑 引き裂かれる

Hey! 月が沈む夜 風が吼える世界
荒波に人々は流されてく

誰かの習慣を おしつけるのはやめてよ
少しずつ 輝きが失せてゆくよ
僕らは争うために 生まれてきたんじゃない
絶え間ない 優しさ抱きしめて
夢はただ願って かなうものじゃないから
そう闇をつき抜けて 思い切り走り出すのさ
Hey! Tell me why can't live together
Tell me why can't stop fighting now
いくつもの微笑 引き裂かれる

Hey! 真実おきざりに あてもなく大地に
すわり込んでいる 訳にいかないさ
Hey! 愛の始まりが 今 心の中に
勇気と呼べる 花の種をまくよ




Hey! 愛の始まりが 今 心の中に
勇気と呼べる 花の種をまくよ
