この町で出会って私あなたに恋をした
お揃いにしていたクロス外したら carry them for luck
限がないほどにキスをしたね終わりはないと思ってた
だってあなたは最初の boyfriend

Yeah, wow, ooh

ガムを噛み指で key を鳴らす胸が痛いつい涙をこぼした

ガラになく黙り込んだ汚れたTシャツの背中
ちょっと見は怖いけれども実は優しい人

この町で出会って私あなたに恋をした
お揃いにしていたクロス外したら carry them for luck
限がないほどにキスをしたね終わりはないと思ってた
だってあなたは最初の boyfriend

苦いラテ古い blue jeans 色んなモノ好きになれた「アリガト」

内緒で出かけた summer holidays 時間が止まって欲しかった
ふたりきりの birthday nite その全てを忘れない

顔くっつけてそして peace して机に飾ってた
Lovegetiiのふたり子犬みたいだねじゃれあっちゃって
だけど心は遠く離れて思い出だけが残るけど
変わらないのは最初の boyfriend

Yeah, boyfriend, you will always be my one and only boy that I'll remember
Can't forget those good times that we shared
I'm reminiscing he's the one I'm missin'
It's all in the past and all those times we both thought it would last

Boyfriend, you will always be my one and only boy that I'll remember
Can't forget those good times that we shared
I'm reminiscing he's the one I'm missin'
It's all in the past and all those times we both thought it would last

早起きをした朝雨の夜「いますぐあいたい」と困らせたの
子どもだったよね私があなたにあげられたものがあるのかな? yeah

この町で出会って私あなたに恋をした
お揃いにしていたクロス外したら carry them for luck
限がないほどにキスをしたね終わりはないと思ってた
だってあなたは最初の boyfriend

この町で出会って私あなたに恋をした
お揃いにしていたビーズ外したら carry them for luck
笑っちゃうほどにキスをしたね終わりはないと思ってた

ずっとあなたは最初の boyfriend
ずっと私の大事な boyfriend

Overall Meaning

The song Boyfriend by Flower is an emotional and nostalgic ballad about the singer's first relationship. The song opens with the singer recalling how she fell in love with him in the same town and they used to wear matching crosses for good luck. She also remembers how they kissed each other endlessly, believing that their love will never end because he was her first boyfriend. However, as the song progresses, she realizes that they have grown apart, and their love is no longer the same. She recounts different memories of them such as hanging out together, their favorite things, and the intimate moments they shared. She admits to missing him and cherishing the memories they created together, but she is also aware that their relationship is in the past, and they both have moved on.

The song captures the bittersweet feelings of first love that many people can relate to. The singer's reminiscing about the moments shared with her first lover brings a feeling of nostalgia, and the realization that it is all in the past adds a tinge of sadness. The lyrics also portray the complexities of relationships, and how they can sometimes be unpredictable. The lines that describe the boyfriend as a nice but scary-looking guy also emphasize how appearances can be deceiving, and things are not always as they seem.

You are not my boyfriend,
And I'm not your girlfriend
You are not my boyfriend,
And I'm not your girlfriend

Mou kore kara wa watashi no denwa narasanaide
Nee onegai konna koto wo iwasenaide No
Juugo kagetsu to nijuuni nichi no rekishi wa kitto
Machigai ja nai demo zenbu sutete mo oshikunai

(Shuumatsu futari de yoku dekaketa ne) itsumademo fukareteta shiokaze
(Ima hitori de miteru yoru no umi) mangetsu ga yurete iru

Ano koro no kimi no hitomi ni wa waratteru watashi dake ga ita
Anna ni sunao na kimochi doko de nakushite shimatta no?
Chika sugite miotoshiteta mono kuyande mo mae ni susumenai
Tebanashita koto no itami dake ga aishiatta akashi

You are not my boyfriend,
And I'm not your girlfriend
You are not my boyfriend,
And I'm not your girlfriend

Hitori kiri demo kimi ga inakute mo arukeru kara
Kamawanaide yo watashi no koto wa douka wasurete

(Omoide ga fui ni yomigaeru yoru)
Umaku iki ga dekinai no wa naze
(Mado wo ake yozora wo miagereba)
Mikadzuki ga nijimu dake

Ano koro no watashi ga mite ita keshiki nara subete oboeteru
Kimi no ichiban yasashii egao wa uso wo tsuiteru toki de
Kanau nara chigireta negai wo
Mou ichido tsunagi awasetai
Dakedo sore wo todokeru aite wa kitto kimi ja nai kara

Ano koro no kimi no hitomi ni wa waratteru watashi dake ga ita
Anna ni sunao na kimochi doko de nakushite shimatta no?
Ano koro no watashi ga mite ita keshiki nara subete oboeteru
Kimi no ichiban yasashii egao wa uso wo tsuiteru toki de
Chika sugite miotoshiteta mono kuyande mo mae ni susumenai
Tebanashita koto no itami dake ga aishiatta akashi

You are not my boyfriend,
And I'm not your girlfriend
You are not my boyfriend,
And I'm not your girlfriend
You are not my boyfriend
