Shining Over You
Hyde Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You were the love
I've always dreamed of
But now I know
I walked away too soon
No matter how
Far away you are
I'll be there
High up on the moon
Shining over you
あふれるくらい君へ
数えきれない愛を
重ね合う歳月ささやかな恋を
雨に濡れ絶やさぬように
そこからどれくらい流されている?
You were the love
I've always dreamed of
But now I know
I walked away too soon
No matter how
Far away you are
I'll be there
High up on the moon
Shining over you
永遠に彩る四季を信じていた明日を
この目には二度と映せはしないから
いつの日も祈っている
君へと輝きが降り注ぐように
You were the love
I've always dreamed of
But now I know
I walked away too soon
No matter how
Far away you are
I'll be there
High up on the moon




Shining over you ...
さよなら ...

Overall Meaning

These lyrics are from the song Shining Over You by Hyde, and they are a reflection on a lost love. The singer of the song is looking back on a past relationship with regret, realizing that they had truly loved their partner but had let them go too soon. Despite the distance between them, the person singing promises to always be there for their former lover, symbolically shining over them from the moon.


The Japanese lyrics add more context to the song, with lines about overflowing love for the person and a hope that they will always be showered with happiness. The reference to the changing seasons and the inability to see the future they once believed in implies both a sense of loss and a search for a new belief to hold on to.


The song's themes of lost love and regret are universal, but it is the specific imagery and poetic language used in the lyrics that make them resonate with listeners. The idea of shining over someone from the moon is both romantic and otherworldly, and the line about counting infinite love is a poignant way of expressing the depth of feelings involved.
