UNIVERSE 始まりの刻(とき)は今
遥か時空も越えて来るの
落ちた雪解けの雫たち
それは愛の羽根に変わるから

Overall Meaning

The song "Spring" by the Japanese electronic music duo Sphere is about the beginning of the universe, and how it transcends through space and time. The lyrics describe the transformation of snow melting into drops of water, which then turn into the wings of love. The song talks about the rhythm of the never-ending heartbeat and the voice of the people, who always wish to be straightforward with their feelings of becoming passionate. They sing about reaching out into the universe, wanting to touch the deep universe in the eyes of their loved one.

The song then proceeds to talk about a breathtaking rainbow that a person saw during their journey. They marvel at the beauty of the Earth and the trust and bonds that they found, which is what they hope to find throughout their life. The lyrics then proceed to talk about the hope that is present during periods of loneliness and how gentle touches bring hope and dance in the darkness. Finally, the song talks about the infinite world that opens up when two people feel each other's emotions and become one.
