To you
Marina Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Больно, и до нитки промокла
Поздно, сама во всем виновата
Плачут от дождя машин стекла
Завтра, без тебя будет завтра

Вернись, мой человек с зонтом
Мне холодно без тебя и тоскливо
Вернись, промокла я под дождем
Непогода совсем накрыла

If you go away
It will always rain
If you go away
If you go away

My man with umbrella
I will be sad forever
If you go away
If you go away, go away

Думала, есть тебя лучше
Не оценила того, что имела
В душе теперь постоянные тучи
Без тебя словно осиротела

Вернись, мой человек с зонтом
Мне холодно без тебя и тоскливо
Вернись, промокла я под дождем
Непогода совсем накрыла

If you go away
It will always rain
If you go away
If you go away

My man with umbrella
I will be sad forever
If you go away
If you go away, go away

If you go away
It will always rain
If you go away
If you go away

My man with umbrella
I will be sad forever




If you go away
If you go away, go away

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in Marina's song "To You" are filled with a bittersweet nostalgia, capturing the feelings of saying goodbye to someone you care about deeply but also holding onto the hope that you will meet again. The first verse sets the scene of a moment when two people are about to part ways, perhaps only for a short time, and the singer acknowledges the sadness of saying goodbye but also the beauty of seeing each other again soon. The use of both Japanese and English suggests a cultural exchange or perhaps a shared linguistic background between the two individuals, adding another layer of intimacy to the scene.


As the song goes on, the singer describes the small gestures and details that they will miss when they are away from the other person, like the way their shirt catches the light during sunset or the way they nervously check their watch in the rain. The line "友だちのままで/ いられなくなるほど/ その瞳 せつなくて" (I can't stay just friends with you/ Your eyes are too sad for that) hints at a deeper emotional connection between the two people that will be hard to ignore. The final lines of the song reaffirm the promise of seeing each other again, even if it's difficult to say goodbye for now.


Overall, "To You" is a touching reflection on the fleeting nature of relationships and the ache that comes from missing someone you care about deeply. The lyrics are simple but evocative, capturing the melancholy and hopefulness of sharing a moment with someone who means the world to you.

LYRICS

[Intro]
(You)

[Verse 1]
You don't know me like you think you do
You don't own me, but I can't cut you loose

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Everybody thinks that you're a star
But underneath I see just what you are
We both know that we can never change
Walking slowly through the smoke and flames

[Chorus]
You, yeah, you break me down (You)
Yeah, you shut me out (You)
But it's all about you, you (You)
I know what you're about (You)
But I need you now (You)
'Cause it's all about you, you (You)

[Post-Chorus]
You (You, you)
You (You, you)

[Verse 2]
You don't love me like you think you do
You don't know I'm just as bad as you

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Everybody thinks that I'm the heart
Of every party, but it's just the start
Deep down, I know that we're just the same
Burning slowly through the dust and flames

[Chorus]
You, yeah, you break me down (You)
Yeah, you shut me out (You)
But it's all about you (You)
I know what you're about (You)
But I need you now (You)
'Cause it's all about you (You)

You (You, you)
You (You, you)
You (You, you)
You (You, you)

You don't know I'm just as bad as you

You, yeah, you break me down (You)
Yeah, you shut me out (You)
But it's all about you (You)
I know what you're about (You)
But I need you now (You)
'Cause it's all about you (You)
[Post-Chorus]
You (You, you)
You (You, you)
You (You, you)
You (You, you)

[Outro]
You don't know me like you think you do

There were so many songs from this album that were incredible. Way too difficult to pick favourites.

Dangerous2099

I've been a fan since 2010, but nothing on this album speaks to me out of the 10 odd tracks I've listened to so far.... It might be time for me to get off the Marina train...

devourerofwatermelon

@Dangerous2099 That's a shame. Maybe you can jump onto the FKA twigs one ^^ Cellophane is so good

S W

Maybe Love + Fear it's not her best album, but now, a year later, i can say that is my favorite. Perfect to listen in the summer, lying down in the grass soaking up the sun

Minh Lam Quang

It's like Starring role and Buy the stars and Hypocrates have a lovechild. Absolutely brilliant.

Duval

Minh Lam Quang I VERY MUCH hear Buy The Stars, even the lyrics are similar.
