虚ろな瞳で見ていた
微かな色彩と光
曖昧な境界線(ライン)
遠くで鳴り響く鐘の音(チャイム)
明けてゆく朝もやの中
手を伸ばした 触れられない何も
目覚めたのに始まらないの?
呼び覚まして
今、頬摩った日差し
温かい風が誘う 窓の向こう側で
「分からないよ...ah」
まだ閉ざした扉を叩いた小さな声
意識を越えて
recall anything to my mind
眼差しの奥に見つけた
鏡のように映し出したこの瞬間を
1つずつ確かめながら
つたない日々辿っていた
手をかざして この不慣れな今日に
少しずつ 色づく季節感じたいの
止まらないで
まだ、芽吹きだした願い
冷たい空の下で 静かに囁いた
「そばにいたい...ah」
心に灯った明かり
小さな現在(いま)照らして
会いに行くから
recall anything to my mind
recall anything to my mind
浅い眠りの中で見た泡のような夢
目覚めても胸に残るこの痛み
いつか巡り会う証ならと抱きしめた
出会う日はこの傷跡重ね合おう
呼び覚まして
今、頬にそっと触れて
貴方の指伝って もう一度感じたい
「離さないよ...ah」
肩に寄り添って見せた
笑顔は未来繋ぐ扉の鍵ね
ずっと掴んだ手を離さないで
拓いた道 2人で行こう
recall anything to my mind
The song Recall by Ray presents a dream-like scenery, where the singer is trying to recall memories and emotions that seem to be fading away. The first verse paints an ethereal landscape where everything is indistinct and uncertain. The use of the word "幻想" (yume), meaning "fantasy" or "illusion," further emphasizes this sense of otherworldliness. The singer seems disoriented and lost, not understanding where they are or where they are supposed to go. The only tangible things are the dim colors and lights around them and the distant sound of a ringing bell. The second verse is more introspective, as the singer dives into their memories, trying to reconcile with their past and find meaning in their present. The use of the word "recall" emphasizes the desire to remember and understand, but also suggests a difficulty in doing so.
The chorus brings a sense of resolution and hope, as the singer finds comfort in the presence of someone else. This person represents a beacon of light shining through the singer's confusion and pain. The use of the word "recall" becomes more assertive, almost like a mantra that helps the singer move forward. The bridge presents a moment of vulnerability and fragility, as the singer clings to a painful memory that they hope will one day bring them closer to their ideal future. The repetition of the phrase "小さな" (chiisana), meaning "small" or "tiny," adds a sense of delicacy and preciousness to this memory.
