カナリア
SOUL LOVERS Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

ときめき忘れたカナリア
檻の中で泣いた
少しの愛ですべてが
変わろうとしているのに
どんなときでもそばで
やさしく抱きしめてあげる
悲しみの言葉たちに
押しつぶされそうなら

いつでもあなたのそばで
やさしく歌ってあげる
いつの日でもいつまでも

言葉を忘れたカナリア
渇いたのどは冬
少しの光ですべてが
眠りからさめてくのに
あふれそうな涙に
そっと口づけてあげる
ふたり見つめてた夢が
離れてしまうまえに
いつでもあなたのそばで
変わらず守ってあげる
いつの日でもいつまでも
求めれば手にできない
与えながら身につけるもの
深い夜のなかで抱きあえば
やがて二つの影ははばたきだす
どんなときでもそばで
やさしく抱きしめてあげる
悲しみの言葉たちに
押しつぶされそうなら
いつでもあなたのそばで
やさしく歌ってあげる
いつの日でもいつまでも
あふれそうな涙に
そっと口づけてあげる
ふたり見つめてた夢が
離れてしまうまえに
いつでもあなたのそばで
変わらず守ってあげる
いつの日でもいつまでも

いつの日でもいつまでも
いつの日でもいつまでも

Overall Meaning

The song カナリア by SOUL LOVERS tells the story of a canary that has forgotten how to feel excitement or happiness. The canary has been trapped in a cage and cried for a long time. Even though the canary knows that a little bit of love could change everything, it seems impossible to attain. Despite the sadness and despair that tries to pull the canary down, the singer promises to be there to hold the canary with love and sing gentle songs to make it feel better, no matter when it is needed. The song deals with themes of love, compassion, and hope even when things seem bleak.

The second verse explores the canary's feelings in detail. Not only has it forgotten how to be happy, but it has also lost its voice completely. The canary is trapped in the cold winter with a parched throat. However, the singer promises that, with a little bit of light, everything can change and wake the canary from its slumber. The canary cries as if there is no tomorrow, but the singer gently kisses away its tears and swears to protect it from anything that may harm it. The final verse of the song discusses the things we cannot acquire by simply seeking them out. The singer believes that love can be learned and shares it unconditionally. It is a powerful sentiment that permeates throughout the song.
