待ちぶせもこれで10回目
１度だけデートの約束
その日僕はずっとうわの空

色っぽい大人の魅力と
完ペキなフェイスとボディーが
理想なのさやっと出会えた
夢に見てたバラ色の日々だ

若さだけとりえのあの娘と
比べたら天と地なのさ
小悪魔か天使の微笑み
なやましく僕をふるわせる
そんなバカな! 彼女はこない

１人きりの公園のベンチ
きょうも恋が終りを告げるよ

Overall Meaning

The lyrics suggest a sense of longing and unrequited love as the singer reflects on their past encounters and disappointments. The theme of missed opportunities and dashed hopes is prevalent throughout the song, with the lyrics emphasizing the passage of time and the repetition of waiting in vain. The mention of a tenth encounter hints at a pattern of pursuits and disappointments, creating a sense of melancholy and resignation.

The singer recalls a promise of a date, highlighting their anticipation and excitement for a potential connection. However, their mind is preoccupied and distant, perhaps indicating a lack of genuine interest or emotional investment in the romantic pursuit. The mention of the allure of an attractive adult figure with a perfect face and body contrasts with the singer's detached attitude, suggesting a longing for idealized companionship that remains unattainable.

The comparison between the alluring figure and a youthful girl with charisma and innocence reveals the singer's struggle with conflicting desires and expectations in relationships. The references to a devilish or angelic smile further emphasize the internal turmoil and confusion experienced by the singer, who is unsure about the nature of their affection and the suitability of their romantic interests. The sense of envy and frustration towards the elusive lover adds depth to the emotional landscape portrayed in the lyrics.

The conclusion of the lyrics on a melancholic note, with the singer lamenting another day of unfulfilled romance in a deserted park, captures the essence of unrequited love and dashed hopes. The recurring theme of unattainable fantasies and missed connections resonates throughout the song, evoking a sense of yearning and resignation in the face of unfulfilled desires. The poignant imagery and introspective tone convey a sense of vulnerability and longing that permeates the singer's emotional journey in the "Garden of Sorrow."
