Prism Heart
Yogee New Waves Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

時計の針を折ってもう一度だけハグして
STOP THE TIME 嬉しいよ
白いシーツにくるまって眠ろう

都会の空できみがひかりの粒まとって
GROWING UP 気流も操って
覗き込むよぼくは夢の中
極彩色の光の中

揺れるテンポとシナトラでさ踊ろう

答えを砂に埋めて見てないふりをやめた
SLOW IN LOVE 溶けるような
恋の深度を確かめて眠るの

落ちてゆく夜にはかけた魔法をといてよ
OPEN EYES 地球をさまよって
たどりつくよひかりの側
香りをもとに会えたのさ
飛ばす車も転ぶ足もぼくのもの

何度だっていいよ壊れて生まれ変わるときも
シーツとレコードでさ踊ろう

PRISM HEART GONNA
SHINY SHY ROAD

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Yogee New Waves's song Prism Heart portray a dreamy world where the singer is trying to stop time and be happy in a moment. In the first verse, the singer desires to break the clock's hands and press the pause button at that happy moment. The second verse imagines the singer and their lover collecting light particles in the sky and manipulating the airflow as they dance to the sound of Sinatra. In the third verse, the singer has found love and now wants to explore its depth before they go to sleep. The fourth verse urges to undo the night's magic and move closer to the light, and finally, the chorus exclaims the shining road of the Prism Heart that will lead the singer to the destination of their dreams.

The lyrics of Prism Heart can be interpreted as an ode to living in the moment while dreaming of a bright future. The theme of time is quite prominent, indicating the singer's desire to slow it down or stop it and soak in the happy moment. The reference to light and colors signifies a world where there is wonder and joy. The use of Sinatra's music and the smell of the car and footsteps, in the end, brings a sense of nostalgia and romanticizes memories of love and happiness.
