I&U
Yasuda Rei Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
…で、 can't fly どこまでも遠く
描いたイメージと違いすぎ
…ください。矯正のアプリ
It's my mind 止まんない鼓動は
もう can't stop ここからどうするの？
「地球が廻り続けるから」
汚れた画面に(たったひとりの特別な君)
汚してごめんね(慌てて拭くトコは観せられない)
溢れ出すヒカリがきっと 想い届けてくれるよフラッシュバック
君がくれた この胸刺した 眩しすぎるキーワード
ひとつは「Ｉ」 もうひとつは「YOU」 ふたつのあいだ 七色の「LOVE」
誰かじゃない 君だけといたい 保存したい hold on 未来
"ぐるうっ"と 不安は繰り返す
そう keep cool デフォルトしなおすの
思った以上に不安定
…ください。救急の案内
It's your mind 聞こえない鼓動に
Why not scream おびえてばかりじゃない
「自由にこの空飛べたなら」
って言って、夜空見上げた
流れた着信(たったひとつの特別な音)
聴けずにごめんね(慌てて出るからちゃんと聴けない)
寂しさにヒカリが差した すべてが溶けてく 心で
君の声が 鼓膜を撫でた 優しすぎる低音
ふたつの「愛」 いまつながる 瞳を閉じて 感じてたい
何かじゃない 君に触れてたい 方法はない no more cry
不安な気持ちを(並べた文字で困ってる君)
信じる強さを(いつも返してくれてありがとう)
溢れ出すヒカリがきっと 想い届けてくれるよフラッシュバック
君がくれた この胸刺した 眩しすぎるキーワード
ひとつは「Ｉ」 もうひとつは「YOU」 ふたつのあいだ 七色の「LOVE」
誰かじゃない 君だけといたい 保存したい hold on 未来
The lyrics of Yasuda Rei's I&U speak of the anxious thoughts and feelings that come with being in love. The song starts with the metaphorical 'throbbing' of the heart as something that can't be controlled, symbolizing the overwhelming emotions that the singer is experiencing. She's unable to 'fly' and feels lost or distant from the person she's in love with, as the image she had of them is different from reality. The line 'Please, a correction app' could represent a wish for a tool or a way to help realign her expectations with reality.
The singer goes on to talk about the fear and uncertainty that come with being in love and how it's not healthy to just 'keep cool' all the time. Sometimes it's necessary to scream or speak out instead of bottling up emotions. The line 'If only I could fly in this sky freely' further emphasizes the theme of wanting to escape the anxiety and be with the person she loves.
The chorus repeats the idea of a 'light overflowing,' which could represent the hope and positivity that comes with truly being in love. The flashing back of memories and the 'too bright' keyword represents how much that person means to her, and the colors of love that come together. 'I' and 'you' are connected with love, and she wants to hold onto the future with just this one person.
Overall, I&U is a song that speaks of the chaos, fear, and hope that come with being in love, and the singer longs for a way to make those feelings easier to handle.
