Song for You
Paris Match Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

僕はまた思い出してしまうよ君のことを
痩せた月眺めても孤独(ひと)りでは切ないのに
ひそやかなあの夢の音五線譜に浮かべて夜更けに口ずさんだ

瞳を見つめて瞳の中で微笑(わら)おう
会えない季節には花の雨のように
届けるよ唄を優しい君の唄を
静かに眠れ全ての哀しみまで僅かな一瞬(とき)でも

僕はまた小さな未来見つけて戻れるから
夜の裏待ちくたびれた君はあの日のまま
街の灯が寂しくさせて崩れ落ちそうになる時には思い出して

瞳を閉じよう瞳を閉じて祈ろう
会えない季節には絹の風のように
届けるよ詩を優しい君の詩を
静かに積もれかすかな悦びまで儚い刹那に

ひそやかなあの夢の音五線譜に浮かべて夜更けに口ずさんだ

瞳を見つめて瞳の中で微笑おう
会えない季節には花の雨のように

届けるよ唄を優しい君の唄を
静かに眠れ全ての哀しみまで僅かな一瞬でも

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Paris Match's "Song For You" express deep emotions of nostalgia, loss, and love. The singer remembers the person they love and how even the sight of the thin moon makes them feel lonely without them. They also remember the silent sound of a dream and hum it in the late night, capturing those precious moments. The lyrics describe a strong connection between two people who are separated by distance, culminating in the heartrending line "静かに眠れ全ての哀しみまで僅かな一瞬でも" (Even for a fleeting moment, may you rest quietly, free of all your sorrows). The singer finds hope that they can return to the future because they have found a small future for themselves, and they long for their loved one to be with them again.
