Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

ひとりきりじゃ歩けないの
通い慣れた道さえ
とても弱かったわたしに
初めて気がついた
つのる(今も)心細さに
何度もたち(足が)すくむけど
会いたい人が(呼んで)いるの
帰るからあなたが待つ場所まで

そうゆっくりでも
分かれ道自分で向かう先を
選んでゆく
広い空を見上げながら

守るはずだったあなたに
逆に守られてたね
どこか迷ってしまわぬよう
手を引いてくれたの
子供(淋し)すぎるわたしは
いつのまにか(ひどく)甘えてた
その優しさが(だって)好きで
できるならただ導かれていく
それだけじゃなくて
この想い伝えるため手と手を
つなぎたいの
夢を見ることなんてまだ
贅沢かも知れないけど
許されるなら
こんなわたしでも(信じて)
夢見ても(ねえ)いいですか

帰るからあなたが待つ場所まで
遠く離されても
分かれ道自分で向かう先を
決めてゆくの
明日からおとずれる日々のこと
ふっと考えたら
胸よぎるやわらかな痛みさえ

いとおしくて
空がまた広く見えた

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Blue Drops' song "帰るから" discuss the struggles and insecurities of a person who feels unable to walk alone. The familiar path she once traversed now feels weak, and she is forced to confront her own vulnerabilities for the first time. Despite the overwhelming sense of hopelessness that builds within her, she finds solace in the presence of someone she longs to see, someone who is waiting for her as she sets out on her journey home. Even though she walks slowly towards the crossroads, she hopes she can find her way by herself, and all the while, she looks up at the vast sky above her.

In the early stages of the song, the artist juxtaposes her own weakness with the strength of someone she dearly wishes to see again. As the song progresses, the artist acknowledges that she feels lost and alone without this person, but that this person came into her life to guide her through challenging times. While she admits she can't walk alone, she trusts this person to help her move forward. The singer is afraid of being alone, admitting she has leaned on others too much, but realizes that relying on empathy and kindness is what makes life meaningful. Finally, as the song ends, the singer musters the strength to embark on a new path, one that she must choose for herself, but she feels a sense of warmth and security knowing that those she loves still remain close to her heart.
