Sign
Ray Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've tried so hard to keep our home alive but you don't even know that I'm around
You tell me that somehow our love has died
And you'd rather be set free than be tied down
All right I'll sign the papers even though you know I love you so
All right I'll sign the papers but oh how it hurts to see you go
[ steel ]

I've laid awake at nights when you were gone
And thought of all the things that I could do
To try and make you happy when you come home




But the more I try the more you make me blue
All right I'll sign the papers...

Overall Meaning

As a result, he reluctantly agrees to sign the divorce papers, even though he still loves her deeply.

It represents the kind of pain and heartbreak that comes with the end of a once-cherished relationship. The lyrics highlight how difficult it can be to let go of someone you love, and the struggle of trying to make things work despite the odds. The song's emotional impact is further emphasized by its slow and melancholic melody, which suits the theme and message of the song.

頬を過ぎる潮風 君は黙ってるだけ
本当はその横顔 触れてみたいのに

口づけた気がしてた あれはそう、夢の中
現実の境界を 風がさらう

何気ない言葉で輝きだした日常
いつか見た映画みたいだね

季節が巡り巡っても 僕らをずっと待ってる
焦げたフィルムのような夏の香り
出会った日の空の青
覗いた君の瞳
きっと…
消せない予感がした

君の笑顔弾けた 夏色のレンズ越し
本当はもっと近くで 見つめたいのに
揺れる木々のざわめき 仲間の笑いあう声
一瞬の勇気 邪魔されて 今も言えない

覗いてみたいな 本当の君の気持ち
風の向きが変わる前に

理性に逆らうように 思いが強くなってく
太陽に焼かれた砂のように
瞼を閉じても出会う笑顔に意識遠くなる
真夏の空の下

手招く君と蜃気楼
短い季節の真ん中で 揺れた…

季節が巡り巡っても 僕らをずっと待ってる
焦げたフィルムのような夏の香り
疼いて消えない予感
覗いたレンズ 飛び越えて
その手を掴むから…

I feel the same, so true to me too. I'd really love to see her back singing again.

この曲を聞くとアニメはもちろん当時の夏を思い出してしまいます。
