freckles
Rurouni Kenshin - Judy and Mary Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I brush against the freckles that I hated so,
But life goes on and I heave a little sigh for you.
It's heavy, the love that I would share with you,
Then it dissolved like it was just a sugar cube.
Now the little pain sittin' in my heart,
Has shrunk in a bit, but it really does hurt me now.
Those silly horoscopes I,
Guess I can't trust them after all.

If we could get further away,
I wonder what it would be like...ya-a-ay!
I'd be so happy,
Inside my heart!

All the memories, I have are beautiful in my mind,
But they don't feed the hunger deep inside my soul.
And tonight I thought, I'd be just sitting in my sorrow,
And now I must wonder wonder why.
What did it really mean to you?
I just can't see it anymore!




I just can't see it anymore!
Oh-ahohoh-o-o-oooh!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Freckles" by Judy and Mary from Rurouni Kenshin reflect on a bittersweet love experience and the subsequent emotional turmoil that follows. The singer starts by acknowledging a physical feature, freckles, that they previously disliked. This symbolizes a part of themselves that they once criticized but now embrace as part of their growth and self-acceptance. The mention of brushing against these freckles conveys a sense of introspection and reconciliation with their past insecurities.


As the song progresses, the singer reflects on a past love that has ended, expressing a mix of longing and resignation. The heaviness of the love they once shared is likened to a fragile sugar cube that dissolved, highlighting the transient nature of romantic relationships. The pain in their heart has lessened but still lingers, showcasing the lingering effects of heartbreak. The mention of silly horoscopes suggests a sense of disillusionment with false hopes and expectations, emphasizing the singer's desire for clarity and closure.


The yearning for distance and the unknown future is expressed in the lines "If we could get further away, I wonder what it would be like." This longing for a fresh start or a different perspective on the past hints at a desire for healing and renewal. The possibility of happiness is envisioned as a distant yet tangible dream that resides in the singer's heart, providing a glimmer of hope amidst their emotional turmoil.


The song concludes with a reflection on memories that, despite being beautiful, cannot fill the void within the singer's soul. The contrast between the external beauty of reminiscences and the internal hunger for emotional fulfillment highlights the complexity of human emotions. The singer grapples with confusion and introspection, questioning the true significance of the past love and struggling to find closure. The repeated refrain of "I just can't see it anymore" underscores the singer's sense of disillusionment and uncertainty, encapsulating the emotional journey of self-discovery and healing woven throughout the lyrics.
