Selfish
Tina Moon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
君の腕 I'm sleeping
夢は意地悪さ 思い通り 行かないし
不思議なんだ なぜか
そう 君に触れる それしか
僕でいれないのに
優しい人じゃなくていい
泣き虫な僕らが心地いい
幸せが何かわからないままで
全て終わった顔しないで
僕のわがままも聞いて
うまらない隙間は
誰にでも
完璧なんてない
わかっても 寂しくて
自分を壊して
消えてくのが 君じゃないよう祈るだけ
Don't fly away Don't go
優しい人じゃなくていい
泣き虫な僕らが心地いい
そよ風で消えそうな
何を掴めば止まるの
