koi no arashi
Mariya Takeuchi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Dance, dance, dance, never stop
ふと触れた指先に
心が揺れる夜は
秘め続けた想いさえも
隠せなくなる
動き出したハートは
もうこのまま止められない
罪の始まり
Dance, dance, dance
頬を寄せて 強く抱いて
ステップ踏むの
Chance, chance, chance
まだ今なら
帰る場所を 選べるわ
Dance, dance, dance, never stop till you say you love me
Dance, dance, dance, never stop till you say you love me so
あなたの車に乗り
駆け抜ける雨の街
涙色に輝いてる
切ないくらい
二人を急かすように
降り続く雨の音
誰もいない駐車場で
止めたエンジン
Rain, rain, rain
窓を打って
もっと降って 嵐を呼んで
Pain, pain, pain
恋するほど
ついてくるの 哀しみも
Dance, dance, dance
頬を寄せて 強く抱いて
ステップ踏むの
Chance, chance, chance
まだ今なら
帰る場所を 選べるわ
Rain, rain, rain
窓を打って
もっと降って 嵐を呼んで
Pain, pain, pain
胸の痛み
熱いキスで 忘れたい
Rain, rain, rain, never stop till you kiss me baby
Rain, rain, rain, never stop
Rain, rain, rain, never stop till you kiss me baby
Rain, rain, rain, never stop till you kiss me baby
Rain, rain, rain, never stop till you kiss me baby
Rain, rain, rain, never stop till you kiss me baby
Rain, rain, rain, never stop till you kiss me baby
Rain, rain, rain, never stop till you kiss me baby (rain, rain, rain)
The song "Koi no Arashi" by Mariya Takeuchi is a romantic dance track that explores the feeling of being swept off one's feet by love. The lyrics use a variety of metaphors to express this feeling, such as the rainstorm that both symbolizes the intensity of the lovers' feelings and spurs them to move forward together. The repetition of the phrase "dance, dance, dance, never stop" throughout the song serves as a motif for the unstoppable force of love that the singer feels.
The first verse describes a night where the singer's heart is trembling from just a touch, and where even their secret desires can't be hidden anymore. The second half of the verse introduces the conflict in the song, as the singer wants to stay friends but can't help the way their heart is moving them.
The chorus then begins with the repeated encouragement to dance, emphasizing both the physical and emotional aspects of the act. The phrase "never stop till you say you love me" adds an extra layer of urgency, as the singer is seeking validation from their love interest.
The second verse finds the singer and this person driving through a rainy city, their tears glistening and the sound of the rain as their accompaniment. The weather is likened to a hurricane, as the singer feels the intensity of their feelings growing stronger. Again, the enjambment of the last line leads seamlessly into the chorus.
The final chorus repeats most of the same phrases and motifs, but the last two lines shift slightly to "never stop till you kiss me baby," emphasizing the physical manifestation of the love that's been building up throughout the song.
Overall, "Koi no Arashi" is a story about being swept off one's feet by someone unexpected, and the way that love can feel like a whirlwind that leaves you gasping for breath.
