Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

風船がはじけた
音を横で聞いた
うずくまって包んだ
お守りみたいに
その手首を
もう一度かぎたいよ
なんでだろ 君が好きだから
いつの間にやら忘れちゃった普通
Lu lu lu 口ずさむ
In tiny バスタブ
体濡れたまま踊ったね
こんなに不器用だったっけ
欲しいもの なんだって手に入れてきたじゃない
もういらない 愛だって ぜんぶ
悲しみの色が青だなんて嘘だ
なんにも無いんだよ ここには
すがるように まぶた越し また君を思い描くよ
覚えてていいよって 言ってくれよ ねぇ
この曲もいつか懐かしい引き出しに詰められる

風船がはじけた
音を横で聞いた
うずくまって包んだ
お守りみたいに
その手首を
もう一度かぎたいよ
なんでだろ 君が好きだから

だいたい集まるのは眠る時間
おとぎ話 もしかして in a dream
覚めたくないよ baby
曖昧にしとくべきなのさ 本当は
約束未満で進行してく
いろんなもの いろんなこと
ぼやけたまま生活
僕はもう君のことを忘れるよ
昨日愛したエイリアンはもう飛んでった
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
会えないならもうなんもいらない
これ以上優しくしないでよ
僕の匂いにしてしまいたい
ほんとは今すぐ会いたいんだ

風船がはじけた
音を横で聞いた
うずくまって包んだ
お守りみたいに
その手首を
もう一度かぎたいよ
なんでだろ

風船がはじけた
音を横で聞いた
うずくまって包んだ
お守りみたいに
その手首を




もう一度かぎたいよ
なんでだろ 君が好きだから

Overall Meaning

The song "Balloon" by chelmico is a melancholic love song about a person who is struggling to forget about someone they love. The song begins with the sound of a burst balloon, which the singer hears and is reminded of the person they have been trying to forget. The singer then reveals that they want to hold onto the memory and the feeling of their love, like a charm. They want to hold onto the memory of the person's hand, just to feel close to them again. The singer admits that they have forgotten what it feels like to be "normal" because they have been so consumed by their love for this person. However, they also acknowledge that they have achieved everything they wanted in life, and love is the only thing they are missing.


The chorus repeats several times, expressing the singer's desire to hold onto the memory of their love. They are unsure why they still love this person, but the feeling is so strong that they cannot let go. The second verse of the song implies that the singer and the person they love are not able to see each other frequently, and that they only meet during the time they both sleep. The singer uses the metaphor of a fairy tale, asking if they are in a dream. They want to stay in this fairy tale for as long as they can, but they also know that it is not real. They are aware that their relationship is not based on actual promises but on hope and wishes. The singer is trying to convince themselves that they can forget about their love, but the memory of the person is too strong, and they end up still longing for them.

Lyrics Translation

The balloon burst.
I heard the sound beside me
I cowered and wrapped it
Like a good luck charm
I want to smell your wrist again.
I wonder why? Because I love you.

Before I knew it, I'd forgotten how to be normal
Lu lu lu I croon in tiny bathtub
I danced while my body was still wet
I don't remember being so clumsy
I've gotten everything I've ever wanted
I don't want it anymore I want it all, even love
It's a lie that the color of sorrow is blue.
There's nothing here.
I'll think of you again through my eyelids as if I'm clinging to you.
Please tell me it's okay to remember you, okay?
Someday this song will be stuffed in a nostalgic drawer

The Balloons burst.
I heard the sound beside me
I cowered and wrapped myself
Like a good luck charm
I want to smell your wrist again.
I wonder why? Because I love you.

We usually get together when it's time to sleep
A fairy tale Maybe it's in a dream
I don't want to wake up, baby
I should keep it vague, really
I'm going on with less than I promised
Various things, various things
Living in a blur
I'll forget about you now
The alien I loved yesterday has already flown away
If I can't see you, I don't need anything more
Don't be any nicer to me than you already are
I want to make you smell like me
I really want to see you right now

The balloon burst.
I heard the sound beside me
I cowered and wrapped myself
Like a good luck charm
I want to smell your wrist again.
I wonder why? Because I love you.

You know the music's good when the language barrier isn't enough to stop you from enjoying it

みんな,ありがとう

Which is exactly why I love listening to international music. It's like travelling the world and experiencing culture even if you can't leave your own home (due to finances or, in this case, COVID lol).

Half the English speakers I know do t even pay that much attention to the lyrics of the English songs they love.

I actually came across this when I first moved to Japan, they had it at the little Tower Records listening port and I bought the CD on the spot. Crazy to see them blow up now
