手を伸ばせば きっと届くと
君の冷たくて白い
手を握りしめたあの日
がむしゃらに時間を過ごして
目の前の事が楽しくて
いつしかそれが当たり前の
様に思ってたんだね
君の笑い声がとなりで聞こえて
気付けば
でっかくたくさんの想い出が
いつでも僕を救ってくれて
僕等の前に続く道は
いつの日にか2つになってた
君の冷たくて白い
手はもう握れなかった
がむしゃらに夢を追いかけて
目の前の事しか見えなくて
いつの間にかそれが
当たり前の様に思ってたんだね
二人で怒られたあの日の夜も
渡してスグになく
したあの日の指輪も
気付けば
でっかくたくさんの想い出が
今でも僕を救ってくれて
僕の声が 君の胸に
僕の声が 君の心に
届く様に僕はずっと
この場所で歌うから
僕の声が 君の胸に
僕の声が 君の心に
届く様に あなたに響けよ
暗い夜に光る白い星
手を伸ばせば きっと届くと
君の冷たくて
白い手を握りしめたあの日
がむしゃらに時間を過ごして
目の前の事が楽しくて
いつしかそれが当たり前の様に
思ってたんだね
二人が出会ったあの日の夜も
二人で聴いていたアイツの歌も
気付けば
でっかくたくさんの想い出が
いつでも僕を救ってくれた
僕の声が 君の胸に
僕の声が 君の心に
届く様に僕はずっと
この場所で歌うから
僕の声が 君の胸に
僕の声が 君の心に
届く様に あなたに響けよ
僕の声が 君の胸に
僕の声が 君の心に
届く様に僕はずっと
この場所で歌うから
僕の声が 君の胸に
僕の声が 君の心に
届く様に あなたに響けよ
僕は何かを探し
出す為に気付けば
周りが見えなくなって
この場所からも君を
見つけずにいました
僕は何かを
掴み取る為に気付けば
君が見えなくなってて
この場所からも
君を捜せずにいました
僕の声が 君の胸に
僕の声が 君の心に
届く様に僕はずっと
この場所で歌うから
僕の声が 君の胸に
僕の声が 君の心に
届く様に あなたに響けよ
あなたに響けよ...
These lyrics are from the song "Album Version" by R. Kelly. The song expresses a nostalgic theme, reflecting on a past relationship and the memories associated with it. The lyrics convey a sense of longing and the desire to hold onto cherished moments.
The opening lines talk about a white star shining in the dark night, symbolizing hope and optimism. The singer reaches out, believing that he can grasp that hope if he tries. The next lines describe a specific memory of holding the hand of the person he was in a relationship with, describing it as cold and white. The lyrics depict a time when they spent their days recklessly together, finding joy in the present moment. The singer reflects on how they took each other's company for granted, considering it as something normal and expected.
As the song progresses, it becomes evident that the relationship has ended. The singer acknowledges that they can no longer hold onto the person's cold, white hand. The lyrics describe the pursuit of dreams, where the singer becomes consumed with what is directly in front of him, losing sight of everything else. They realize that they took this single-mindedness for granted as well.
The lyrics then mention the night they were scolded together and a ring that was lost on the same day, both memories that offer comfort and solace. The song continues to emphasize the power of memories and how they continue to save the singer even now. The chorus repeats the desire for the singer's voice to reach the person's heart and for them to resonate with the lyrics.
Overall, "Album Version" captures the emotional journey of reminiscing on a past relationship and reflecting on the significance of shared memories.
