Balance
Side-Step Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

愛し過ぎて恋にならない
心は落ち着かない
君に逢うたび 抱きしめるたび
崩れかける Balance Of Love
卑怯だぜ 君の不意打ちのKissは
取り乱してしまう 自分が嫌だね
午前0時の ヤニに煙るBarでは
遊び慣れた男が もて遊ばれてる
絡み合う二人の 駆け引きの中
仕掛けられた甘い
罠に 俺は堕ちてく
愛し過ぎて
シャレにならない
したたかに振る舞えない
君を少しでも嫌いになれば
つり合うのに Balance Of Love
出会った頃は 憂う眼差しの天使
今じゃ危険な香りと
美貌をもつ小悪魔
カウンターにもたれ
足組み変えてみせる
生意気な奴 だけど視線そらせない
グラスに溶けてゆく
ジンライムのように
君は俺のプライドまで
飲み干してしまう
愛し過ぎてヤケになれない
ペースはつかめない
与えるほど求め過ぎて
片寄ってく Balance Of Love
愛し過ぎて恋にならない
心は落ち着かない
君に逢うたび 抱きしめるたび
崩れかける
愛し過ぎて
シャレにならない
したたかに振る舞えない




君を少しでも嫌いになれば
つり合うのに Balance Of Love

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Side-Step's song "Balance of Love" touch on the theme of being in love to the point of imbalance. The first verse sets the tone with the lines "Aishisugite koi ni naranai" which roughly translates to "Loving too much, it doesn't become love." The singer’s heart is not at ease, and every time they embrace their lover, they feel their balance of love crumbling. The chorus repeats this theme with the line "Aishisugite, Share ni naranai," which means "Loving too much, it's not a joke," highlighting the seriousness and overwhelming nature of the singer's feelings.


The second verse introduces an element of danger and manipulation in the relationship, with the lines "Karamiau futari no kakehiki no naka, Shikakerareta amai wana ni ore wa ochiteku," which roughly translates to "Caught up in the game between the two tangled, I fall into a sweet trap set for me." This suggests that the love between the two is not necessarily healthy, and that there may be ulterior motives at play. The bridge of the song introduces a contrast between the initial portrayal of the lover as an angel and their current state as a "dangerous" devil, with the lines "Deatta koro wa ureu manazashi no tenshi, Ima ja kiken na kaori to bibou wo motsu koakuma," which means "When we met, you were an angel with a sad gaze, but now you're a dangerous little devil with beauty and allure." This further adds to the complex and intense dynamic of the relationship explored in the song.
