toddle Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

聴きたい歌があります
君のメロディー求め
悲哀が音階奏で
月明かりの部屋に降る
聴きたい歌があります
僕のメロディー求め
悲哀が音階奏で
月明かりの部屋に降る

要らない音かきわけて
君のメロディー求め
未来が音階奏で

今という花は散る
朝焼けに　君のメロディー歌う

Overall Meaning

These lyrics are from the song "A Sight" by Japanese artist toddle. The lyrics are in Japanese, and they translate to: "There is a song I want to listen to / Seeking your melody / Sadness plays on a musical scale / Falling into a room lit by moonlight / There is a song I want to listen to / Seeking my melody / Sadness plays on a musical scale / Falling into a room lit by moonlight / Filtering out the unnecessary sounds / Seeking your melody / The future plays on a musical scale / The flower of now falls / Singing your melody in the morning sun."

The lyrics speak to the power of music in expressing and processing emotions. The singer is seeking solace in a particular melody, perhaps to help them cope with feelings of sadness or loss. The moonlit room described in the lyrics adds to the melancholic atmosphere of the song.
