Next To You
Katou Emiri & Fukuhara Kaori Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
ふたりを包んでゆく夕暮れ
出会ったあの日も
こんな風が吹いてた
なぜだかすぐにわかったんだ
空っぽになりかけの世界で
同じ色の夢 見てたね
少しずつ近づく距離に
一緒ならば弱い私
変えられるようで
いつからか
I'm standing here next to you
白黒のキャンバスに
ふたりして色つけて
ふざけながらね 永遠を願った
いつまでも
Will you be here next to me?
退屈も 憂鬱も 君となら消え去って
虹もつかめる そんな気がしてた
笑っちゃうほど気まぐれで
恥ずかしくなるほど生真面目で
自分にないとこ好きだった
なのにね
焦るほどに近づけない
憧れを 君ひとりが先に
つかんで遠くへ行きそうで
いつかすれ違った言葉
もいちど繋げて
一緒だからできることを
思い出したから
今だって
I'm standing here next to you
未来っていうパズルなら
君なしじゃ埋まらない
流した涙 ピースのひとつさ
聞かせてよ
Will you be here next to me?
激しさも さみしさも
隠さずに分け合って
初めてふたり 友達になれた
聞こえたよ
"I'm standing here next to you."
不確かな焦燥は振り切って走りだせ
見えないものを もう怖れないよ
約束さ
You will be here next to me
喜びも 輝きも
ふたりして見つけよう
君のとなりで 胸を弾ませて
The lyrics to Katou Emiri & Fukuhara Kaori's song "next to you" depict a blossoming relationship between two individuals. The song begins by describing the scene of flowers dancing on the surface of a river and the evening enveloping the couple. The lyrics hint that from the moment they met, it was evident that they were meant to be together. They had both been experiencing a sense of emptiness in their lives, but when they found each other, they felt a connection.

The second verse further explores their personalities and how they complement each other. The song denotes one person as whimsical and the other as serious, yet they find themselves falling in love with the aspects they lack within themselves. However, despite their longing to get closer, they feel unable to catch up to the other person's achievements. The lyrics touch upon the idea of reconnecting the words they missed saying and rediscovering the things they can accomplish together because they are united.
The bridge signifies the depth of their bond as they express their willingness to overcome uncertainties and fears together. They have become friends and can now openly share their intensity, loneliness, and joy. The song concludes with the sentiment that even if the future is like a puzzle, it cannot be completed without the other person. They have become each other's comfort and support, and their hearts beat with excitement when they are together.
Overall, the lyrics to "next to you" convey the journey of two individuals finding solace, love, and companionship in each other. They discover that together, they can fill the emptiness in their lives, overcome challenges, and experience the joy and brightness in the world around them.
