鏡の前ではありのまま
もう背伸びは必要ないと
ほっとしてる自分に気づいたの
あなたが好きな苦い珈琲 心まで少しほろ苦いね
ふたり見上げた真冬の星座 つたない恋をさらって消えた
あの日の星のように 小さく輝いている
部屋の隅に置き忘れた
読みかけの本を開く風
あなたが聴く音楽さえ
きっと 私 無理に合わせていた
深い藍を広げた夜空 大人にはゆっくりとなればいい
いつか見つけた真冬の星座 今頃どこを旅しているだろう
ひと差し指でなぞる夏の大三角 今日もこの街で
誰かの物語 優しく見つめているよ
ふたり見上げた真冬の星座 思い出すのはあわい温もり
めぐる季節を告げる夏の大三角 きっとこの恋も
あの日の星のように 小さく輝いている
The song "Ao" by Mone Kamishiraishi is a beautiful and nostalgic tribute to the passage of time and the lasting memories of love. The lyrics evoke a sense of reflection and appreciation for the simple joys in life.
The first verse sets the scene with the image of a moonlight shining in a serene blue, and the singer looking at their reflection in a mirror, realizing that they no longer need to pretend or stretch themselves to fit in. This realization brings a sense of relief and acceptance.
The second verse introduces the bitter coffee that the singer loves, which serves as a metaphor for the bittersweet nature of their emotions. It hints at the complexities of love, where even the heart can have a hint of bitterness. The lyrics then move on to describe a winter sky and the constellation they gazed at together, representing an imperfect and fleeting love that eventually faded away. However, the memories of that love still shine like tiny stars, subtly reminding them of that special day.
The third verse depicts a forgotten book in the corner of a room, waiting to be read. The lyrics suggest that even the music the singer listened to was chosen to please someone else, highlighting a sense of compromise and self-sacrifice. The deep blue of the night sky spreading out becomes a metaphor for the need for adults to slow down and appreciate the beauty and depth of life.
The final verse brings back the imagery of the winter sky and the constellation they discovered together. The singer wonders where those memories are traveling now and traces the summer triangle constellation with a single finger, symbolizing the connection between people's stories and the gentle way they are watched over. The song concludes with the idea that this love, like the stars of that day, will continue to shine in a small but significant way throughout the changing seasons.
