Girl Next Door Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

いつだって三つ星だけは見つけた
まっすぐに追いかけるあの瞳で
ヒカリを結ぶ軌跡が
交差する座標軸に
悲しい物語りが
あることも知らずに
真冬に輝くオリオン見上げて
思いきり泣ける場所をたずねたら

宙にくるまれて
心が溶けてあふれ出した
どんなにこの手のひらを伸ばしても
触れることさえできない悔しさを
胸に抱きしめて
眠れない部屋で目を閉じる

つないでた指先が離れてゆく
昼と夜すれちがう世界のように
見えていたものが消えて
隠れてたものが見える
けれどそれはきっとずっと
そこにあるもの
真冬に輝くオリオンみたいに
愛されてると思い続けたまま
時を止めてたら
迷うこともなかったのかな?
会いたくて会えなくて
でも会いたくて
確かめたがる気持ちで傷ついた
信じてることが
真実だとは限らないね

涙の数だけ強くなるなんて
いまはもうこれ以上
泣きたくないよ
さよならの弓で答が出るなら
目を逸らさずにすべて受け止めたい
未来はいつでも
逃げない瞳の中にある
真冬に輝くオリオンみたいに
強く自分らしくあり続けたい

だからひとりでも
選んだ道を歩いてゆく

いつだって三つ星だけは見つけた
まっすぐに追い駆けるあの瞳で

ヒカリを結ぶ軌跡が
交差する座標軸に
悲しい物語りが
あることも知らずに

真冬に輝くオリオン見上げて
思いきり泣ける場所をたずねたら
宙(そら)にくるまれて
心が溶けてあふれ出した

どんなにこの手のひらを伸ばしても
触れることさえできない悔しさを
胸に抱きしめて
眠れない部屋で目を閉じる

つないでた指先が離れてゆく
昼と夜すれちがう世界のように

見えていたものが消えて
隠れてたものが見える
けれどそれは、きっと、ずっと
そこにあるもの

真冬に輝くオリオンみたいに
愛されてると思い続けたまま
時を止めてたら
迷うこともなかったのかな？

会いたくて会えなくて　でも会いたくて
確かめたがる気持ちで傷ついた
信じてることが

涙の数だけ強くなるなんて
いまはもうこれ以上泣きたくないよ

さよならの弓で答が出るなら

未来はいつでも
逃げない瞳の中にある

真冬に輝くオリオンみたいに
