LIKE & LOVE
Lee Jin-Ah Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Brightly, wimpy, bittersweet and beauty
何もかも I didn't know 思うままに
Sing out, play it loud and swing it all baby (hey!)
未来なんて分からないよ今も
でも I'm gotta go (ya)
進む everyday (hey!)
My life is like a fairy tale
全ては気まぐれ
I'm just 未完成の運命
Oh, love like the films
(Hey!) たそがれ 涙を乾かせ
刻んだシャッターと polaroid
Oh, love like the movies (hey!)
(La lai la lai, la lai la lai) (hey)
The story in a photograph
Oh, love like the films
あれから how many years 過ごしただろう?
悩んで night and day 雨上がり Sunday
夕焼け一筋の飛行機雲
Someday someone 足跡のように (hey!)
未来なんて分からないよ今も
でも I'm gotta go (ya)
進む everyday (hey!)
Make my day!
My life is like a fairy tale
全ては気まぐれ
I'm just 未完成の運命
Oh, love like the films
(Hey!) たそがれ 涙を乾かせ
刻んだシャッターと polaroid
Oh, love like the movies (hey!)
(La lai la lai, la lai la lai) (hey)
The story in a photograph
Oh, love like the films (hey!)
まぶたの奥には今でも shining stars
We are the strays
But will be coming home!
Everyone plays a leading role
Everyone plays a supporting role
まるで coffee and cigarettes
Oh, love like the films
(Hey!) お待たせ
始めよう the main part
昨日までがやっとプロローグ
Oh, love like the movies (hey!)
(La lai la lai, la lai la lai) (hey)
The story in a photograph
Oh, love like the films (hey!)
(La lai la lai, la lai la lai) (hey)
The story is going on
Oh, love like the films (hey!)
The lyrics of Lee Jin-Ah's song "LIKE & LOVE" reminisce about the singer's youth, as she delicately describes the many emotions and experiences that she has encountered since then. In the first verse, she looks back at her younger self and reflects on how she felt everything in that moment without fully understanding it. The line "Sing out, play it loud and swing it all baby" is an invitation to live life fully and passionately, singing your heart out and embracing everything that comes your way.
The chorus of "LIKE & LOVE" describes the singer's life as a fairy tale, where everything is unpredictable and whimsical, and she feels incomplete, with love being the only constant. She compares her love to movies and photographs, where a story is captured and frozen in time, even as life continues to march on.
The second verse brings the passage of time into focus, as the singer wonders how many years have passed since her youth, and recalls days spent worrying and being lost in thought. The line "Someday someone 足跡のように" suggests the idea of someone coming into the singer's life and leaving a lasting impression, much like how footprints can be left behind in the sand.
Overall, "LIKE & LOVE" is an ode to the chaos and unpredictability of life, and how love, whether it be for a person or for life itself, is what keeps everything grounded and moving forward.
