On My Mind
The All Stars Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

夜毎 彼女の telephone number
涙ながらに問いかける
飲み過ぎて君をからかいがちに
いきなり抱きすくめたつもりでも
傷ついてしまったのは no, no, no

祈る想いだけど no, answer
他の誰かに持ってかれちゃう
ひとりきりが これほど辛いなら
ふらちなマネを悔やむべきなのに
離れ離れの今宵も ring a bell

逢いたさ見たさ病める my mind
君恋し I love you
胸に雲がつかえたような
ためらいがちの ev'ry day
I don't know what to do

泣いてばかりじゃ駄目 heart breaker
彼女もすぐに戻るだろう
時折君がそばにいた頃の
香りが風に舞うような気がする
振り向いてもせつなくて
You may well cry

逢いたさ見たさ病める my mind
逢いたさ見たさ病める my mind
君だけが好きな
Oh 胸をツメでとがれたような
落ちこみがちの ev'ry day

Tell me the reason why
Whenever you come to me, I'm gonna treat you right!
Whenever you come to me, I'm gonna treat you right!




Whenever you come to me, I'm gonna treat you right!
Whenever you come to me, I'm gonna treat you right!

Overall Meaning

The All Stars’s song On My Mind is about a man who is deeply in love with a woman but is struggling with the fear of losing her. He calls her every night even though he knows she may not answer. He admits to teasing her while drunk, but wants her to know that he always intended to hold her close. However, he realizes his actions have hurt her ("傷ついてしまったのは no, no, no" - "It's no, no, no that I hurt you"). He wants to confess his love, but he's afraid of rejection ("祈る想いだけど no, answer" - "My prayers go unanswered"). He's afraid that someone else will take her away from him, leaving him alone and heartbroken ("他の誰かに持ってかれちゃう" - "Someone else might take her away").


The singer is constantly reminded of her ("逢いたさ見たさ病める my mind" - "I'm sick of missing you, sick of wanting to see you"). The feeling of longing is making him hesitant and cautious about their relationship ("ためらいがちの ev'ry day" - "Hesitant every day"). He knows that he can’t keep crying and hurting himself ("泣いてばかりじゃ駄目 heart breaker" - "Crying won't solve anything"). He's hoping that she will forgive him and return even though he's hurt her ("彼女もすぐに戻るだろう" - "She'll probably come back soon"). In the end, he promises to treat her right and begs her to give him a chance ("Whenever you come to me, I'm gonna treat you right!").

@VivaTunita

@@gjallahorngjallahorn4758 actually I came here from that same discogs page! btw I'm not an expert on turntables, but I just get a pair of used Reloop 2000 and they are really cool. Not as good as Technics nor MK2 but for the price I got em I'm more than happy.
I hope you get yours and enjoy this groove without any extra bleep, cheers from Uruguay my funky friend!
