Hearts
The Square Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

ふと見あげる空が四角だから 意味もなく孤独を感じてしまう
おまけに心はね 三角だし よくできたアスファルトに少し毒づく

君との約束まで あと何日あるかな
モドカシフローは今日も僕の周りウロウロしてる

今どこいるかな
君が僕を好きなこと知ってるはずなのに
不安・欲望入り混じり つい電話をしてしまう
君が喜ぶ何かを話さなくちゃ
近付き過ぎて嫌われちゃったら元も子もないのに
止まれないんです

小さな幸せを道で拾った つまらない毎日が少し光る
みんなは「何だそれ」って笑い飛ばすだろう
でも君ならわかってくれる気がする

言葉にしたらなんだか 半端になるこの気持ち
モドカシフローと一緒に紙に書いて飛行機にして 風に乗せるよ

例えば暗い話をしているはずなのに
いつの間にか笑い話に変える君の魔法
まだこの街を嫌いにならないのは
「それでも多分この街をずっと愛したいんでしょ」
教えてくれたから

何のために生きてるのって聞かれたら 自分のためだって迷わないけど
その片隅のほんのちょっと けど大事なスペースに君がいて欲しい
わがままかな

君が僕を好きなこと知ってるはずなのに こんなに僕も好きだから

君が僕を好きなこと知ってるんだよ だから
煩わしく思われてしまったら嫌なんだけど
逸る気持ち抑えたり 抑えなかったりするよ
見上げる空は四角くたってさ きっと繋がってる




だからそう 一人じゃない
約束の日まであと少し もう待ちきれないんです

Overall Meaning

These lyrics from The Square's song "Hearts in 2" convey a sense of loneliness and yearning for connection. The opening line, "The sky I suddenly look up at is square, making me feel lonely without any meaning," speaks to a sense of isolation and detachment. The singer then reflects on their own triangular heart and how they find fault even in well-made asphalt.


The song continues as the singer ponders how many days there are until a promised meeting with someone they care about. The line "Modokashi flow is wandering around me again today" implies a sense of restlessness or unease. They wonder where the person they love might be at that moment.


Despite knowing that the other person likes them, the singer feels a mixture of anxiety and desire, leading them to make phone calls to maintain the connection. They feel the need to share something that will make the other person happy, fearing rejection if they get too close. However, they can't stop themselves from pursuing this connection.


Amidst the mundane days, the singer finds a sense of small happiness, which they believe others might dismiss but feel certain that the person they love would understand. They express their feelings by writing them down and sending them off like a paper airplane carried by the wind.


The song also explores the transformative power of the other person's presence. They have a magical ability to turn dark conversations into laughter. The singer appreciates that this person has helped them not hate the city they live in, reasoning that maybe they want to love it forever. They then express a desire for the person they love to occupy a small but significant space in their life.


The lyrics conclude by emphasizing the mutual feelings of love between the singer and the other person. They express a fear of being seen as bothersome but admit to struggling with controlling their intense emotions. They find solace in the idea that the sky, even if square, is connected, implying that they are not alone. And finally, they eagerly await the promised day, feeling unable to contain their anticipation any longer.


Overall, the lyrics of "Hearts in 2" by The Square convey themes of loneliness, yearning for connection, fear of rejection, and the transformative power of love.

学生の頃、何度も繰り返し目を瞑って
音色を味わい聴いてたなあ
本当に懐かしい…

netunof

Best J-Fusion band ever, no contest!

starmanovich

Love them both. T-Square more 80’s pop sound, Casiopea more disco in the early stuff.

netunof

@RYC アネモヤ I love Casiopea, their usage of FM sounds is genius, but T-Square has the mojo haha

loudness

一番好きな曲。
各人パフォーマンスが素晴らしい!

Cereal Killer

amazing!

Fiando Perdana

Now imagine Masato Honda-san on the Sax.

Heartsは1982年リリースの「脚線美の誘惑」所収。リリース当時は洗練されていないと感じてましたが、この曲は後の「SNOWBIRD」(ラス・フリーマンの手が入っていますが)につながる、いわばダイヤの原石のような曲だったのか、と思うのであります。

高塚一司

名バラードですよね。
エンディングのギターが盛り上げています。

macs Y

いつまでも消えない切なく悲しい胸の痛み、、。
