Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
赤いジェット機に 見えたよ
Darlin' あの日から 街は滑走路
Memory 舞い上がるよ
Sweet 手をつなぎ
Sweet 眠ったよね
Darlin' 別れても 誕生日だけは
そばにいたいから 贈った
花がとどいたら
愛に 水をやって
Please 恋人が
Please 眠ったあと
忘れたくない人を 想い出す
誰かを 好きになるたび
贅沢な女だと 言われても
ハートは止められないよね
Darlin' 見かけより
ロマンチストさと
海を眺めてたね
忘れたくない人が 見えてくる
賑う人込みの中
幻を抱きしめる 幸せを
あなたに 教えてあげたい
見つけたよ
あなたと同じ サングラス
かけてみた
渚の見える サングラス
Darlin' 走り去る あなたの車が
赤いジェット機に 見えたよ
Darlin' あの日から 街は滑走路
Memory 舞い上がるよ
Sweet 手をつなぎ
Sweet 眠ったよね
In "Darlin'" by PMC All-Stars, the lyrics paint a picture of a bittersweet love story. The song begins with the singer reminiscing about seeing their loved one's car driving away and how it seemed to them like a red jet plane. This imagery suggests the feeling of speed and leaving, hinting at the idea that their relationship may have ended abruptly or unexpectedly.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the sweetness and closeness the couple once shared. Holding hands and sleeping together, these moments are portrayed as precious and cherished memories. Despite the breakup, the singer confesses their desire to be with their ex-partner on their birthday, symbolizing the lingering attachment and a hope for reconciliation.
The second verse reflects on the reception of the singer's love life by others. They admit that each time they fall for someone new, people label them as a "self-indulgent" woman. This lyric captures the realization that society may judge individuals who wear their hearts on their sleeves or who are repeatedly drawn to love. Nonetheless, the singer emphasizes that their heart cannot be stopped or controlled, suggesting a sense of inevitability in their romantic inclinations.
The bridge delves into the singer's longing for someone they don't want to forget. In the midst of a bustling crowd, they begin to see the person they want to hold onto in their memories. They express a desire to embrace the happiness of holding onto this person, even if it is only a fleeting illusion. This longing is portrayed as a secret they want to share with their ex-partner.
The song concludes with a repeating chorus, emphasizing the image of the red car as a symbol of departure and the city as a runway. This repetition reinforces the idea of a love story that has ended but still lingers in the singer's heart and mind. The mention of the memory soaring like a red jet plane suggests that the memories associated with their past relationship continue to rise and stay with them. The closing lines of the chorus capture the sweetness and intimacy shared between the couple, reminiscing about holding hands and sleeping together, highlighting the fond memories that endure.
