夜汽車
MAMALAID RAG Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
赤いペディ・キュアとその黒い瞳
夜汽車の座席でガタゴトユラユラ
カーヴ曲がるたびぶつかる膝頭
いつの間にか 恋に落ちてゆく
僕は目を閉じて 深くシートにもたれた
手をのばしてその冷たい指先 触れてみたいけど
素敵な夜は衣擦れの音が
深い闇の中でクスクス笑ってる
哀しいことも今は知らん顔
仄かに光る街と後ろへ遠ざかる
いつの間にか 話題も尽きたまま
僕は目を閉じて 深くシートにもたれた
手をのばしてその冷たい指先 触れてみたいけど
君は窓の外みてる
いつの間にか 話題も尽きたまま
僕は目を閉じて 少しひとりになってみる
放っておいたことが 前触れもなく
込み上げたせいで 泣き崩れそうになる
手を伸ばしてその冷たい指先 触れてみたいけど
君は小さくハミング
君は窓の外みてる
The lyrics of MAMALAID RAG's song 夜汽車 depicts a scene of a couple on a night train ride. As the moon shines on the lovely night, the singer describes the red pedi cure and black eyes of their companion sitting with them on the train. The train ride is bumpy and every time it curves, their knees bump together. The singer realizes that they have fallen in love with their companion, but the person is not reciprocating their feelings. The singer yearns to touch their cold fingertips, but the person is looking outside the window instead.
Notably, the night is beautiful but there is the sound of cloth rubbing in the silence. The beauty of the moment is contrasted with the train's passage through the dark and the singer's sadness at the thought that their companion may not feel the same way about them. As the train goes farther away from the city, the conversation between them runs out, and the singer leans back in his seat. The singer's thoughts dwell on their unrequited love, and they feel a sudden urge to cry. They extend their hand to touch their companion's cold fingertips but are met with their companion humming quietly and looking outside the window.
Overall, the lyrics of 夜汽車 portray feelings of unrequited love and longing for someone who is not interested in the way one is interested in them. It also highlights the beauty of nighttime and the passing of it through the train journey.
