Koji Kikkawa Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
滲(にじ)む街が
おまえの瞳を
優しく 濡らしてく
夢ばかり捜す日々に
疲れた心は
KISSよりも
Day by Day
なにを見つめてたの
Day by Day
心のどこかで ふたり
あの夏がいま
くりかえすMELODY
思い出に変えて
くだらないこともしたと
笑ったまちかど
この場所が
俺は好きだった
Day by Day
なにかを信じてる
Day by Day
心はいまでも ふたり
あの夏がまだ
終わらないMEMORY
ときめきに変えて
Day by Day
なにかを信じてる
Day by Day
心はいまでも ふたり
あの夏がまだ
終わらないMEMORY
ときめきに変えて
あの夏がいま
くりかえすMELODY
思い出に変えて
The song "Day by Day" by Koji Kikkawa is a heartfelt ballad about nostalgia and the longing for the past. The lyrics describe a scene of a city at dusk, with the urban landscape blending with the singer's memories of a summer romance. The imagery of the city is used to show how it is affected by the same melancholy the singer feels, as if the streets and buildings are crying with him. The song expresses the universal feeling of longing for a simpler time, and how the memories of a summer love can provide comfort and solace from the harsh realities of everyday life.
The verses describe the singer's weariness from searching for a dream, and how he desires a simple sigh more than a kiss. The chorus expresses the sentiment of searching for something to believe in, and how the memory of a summer romance is a source of solace and happiness. The repetition of the phrase "Day by Day" highlights the gradual nature of nostalgia, where memories and emotions resurface slowly over time. The song ends with the singer hoping to turn his memories of a summer love into a lasting feeling of young love, conveying the endless cycle of nostalgia and recollection.
Overall, the song "Day by Day" is a poignant reflection on the power of memories and the human desire to hold onto the past.
