I married the love of my life in a burst of confetti and certainty. We stepped out into the world believing we could shape it with our hands. Then the cars pulled us apart. They drove between us like fate testing its strength. His fingertips briefly brushed the air where mine had been just a moment before. But I never doubted. He always finds his way back to me.
He did not simply return. He stopped traffic. He stood in the road in a borrowed uniform, commanding the city to halt so he could hand me a scrap of paper with a promise scrawled in ink. An address. A beginning. A universe that would rise from our shared faith in each other.
The gift arrived in pieces. A house without instructions. Walls that did not yet know who we were. He worked from dawn until the moon was high, measuring, hammering, fixing mistakes before I even noticed them. I watched his hands become maps of determination. Even when the planks refused to fit and the roof slouched like a tired sigh, he believed in our home.
There was one quite moment in the storm. I slipped into a bathtub surrounded by chaos and dust. He noticed the way the camera stared at me and he gently covered its eye. No words. Just a shield of palm and tenderness. Love can be thunder but sometimes it is the soft click of privacy granted. That moment felt like a vow no church could sanctify.
But the wind rose like a villain. It tore and howled, indifferent to his sweat-soaked shirt and hands raw from the fight. It spun our house as if the world needed to see us cling to the dream we built. We held each other and laughed because fear cannot steal what laughter protects. When the walls settled again, we just shrugged and tried again and again. He would always try again.
We even nailed the car to the wall of our home, as if anything with wheels could anchor us more firmly to the ground. He stepped back, brushed the sawdust from his sleeves, and smiled like he had just outsmarted gravity. And still, he worked. Always working. As if effort was the language of love and he was fluent.
Then the train came. A roaring beast of steel and indifference. It’s horn split the air and my heartbeat with it. For a moment time bent and stretched, that confetti from our wedding falling again behind my eyes and I thought I would lose the man who had stopped the world just to reach for me. The universe does not always reward devotion. Sometimes it tests how much it can take before you break. Our home shattered into a thousand flying promises. A future ripped from the tracks.
He planted the for sale sign in the earth like a sword refusing defeat. Beneath the sign, a folded note whispered truths only our scars could read. Failure is not the end. Walls can fall, but we remain standing.
We walked away together. There was no house behind us. There was no blueprint ahead. But love has never needed blueprints. It needs only two people who refuse to let go.
As we stepped forward, his fingers brushed mine again just as they did that first day when the world tried to separate us. Only this time, I held on first.
I looked at the man who wrestles storms and locomotives armed with nothing but stubborn hope. The man who sees possibilities even in rubble. The man who protects my dignity without asking for applause.
My heart moved before my lips did.
“You’re so cool.”
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In the silence of the night,
Two hearts beat and take the fight,
Through the shadows, through the fear,
Fuck the doubts, we’re drawing near.
[Pre-Chorus]
Chasing dreams beneath the stars,
Breaking through the bullshit scars,
Every moment, fierce and true,
I’m falling deeper for you.
[Chorus]
You’re so damn cool, like a flame that never dies,
Burning bright, lighting up these restless skies,
Raise your hands, we’re cutting through,
Every heartbeat, I’m falling for you.
(Falling, falling for you)
You’re so damn cool, like a flame that never dies,
Burning bright, lighting up these restless skies.
[Verse 2]
Whispers carried on the breeze,
Promises like autumn leaves,
Though the road may twist and bend,
I will be by your side until the end.
[Pre-Chorus]
Chasing dreams beneath the stars,
Breaking through the bullshit scars,
Every moment, fierce and true,
I’m falling deeper for you.
[Chorus]
You’re so damn cool, like a flame that never dies,
Burning bright, lighting up these restless skies,
Raise your hands, we’re cutting through,
Every heartbeat, I’m falling for you.
(Falling, falling for you)
You’re so damn cool, like a flame that never dies,
Burning bright, lighting up these restless skies.
[Bridge]
Hell yeah, we’re rising higher now,
With every breath, we break the clouds,
No matter where this crazy ride leads,
Together bound by passion and dreams.
[Chorus] [Verse 1]
In the silence of the night,
Two hearts beat and we’ll take the fight,
Through the shadows, through the fear,
Fuck the doubts, we’re drawing near.
[Pre-Chorus]
Chasing dreams beneath the stars,
Breaking through the bullshit scars,
Every moment, fierce and true,
There’s nothing we can’t do.
[Chorus]
You’re so damn cool, like a flame that never dies,
Burning bright, lighting up these restless skies,
Raise your hands, we’re cutting through,
Every heartbeat, I’m falling for you.
(Falling, falling for you)
You’re so damn cool, like a flame that never dies,
Burning bright, lighting up these restless skies.
[Verse 2]
Whispers carried on the breeze,
Promises like autumn leaves,
Though the road may twist and bend,
Standing strong, no need to pretend.
[Pre-Chorus]
Chasing dreams beneath the stars,
Breaking through the bullshit scars,
Every moment, fierce and true,
There’s nothing we can’t do.
[Chorus]
You’re so damn cool, like a flame that never dies,
Burning bright, lighting up these restless skies,
Raise your hands, we’re cutting through,
Every heartbeat, I’m falling for you.
(Falling, falling for you)
You’re so damn cool, like a flame that never dies,
Burning bright, lighting up these restless skies.
[Bridge]
Hell yeah, we’re rising higher now,
With every breath, we break the clouds,
No matter where this crazy ride leads,
Together bound by passion and dreams.
[Chorus]
You’re so damn cool, like a flame that never dies,
Burning bright, lighting up these restless skies,
Raise your hands, we’re cutting through,
Every heartbeat, I’m falling for you.
(Falling, falling for you)
You’re so damn cool, like a flame that never dies,
Burning bright, lighting up these restless skies.
[Outro]
You’re so damn cool
So cool, so cool, so cool
So fucking cool
ソー・ダム・クール You’re So Cool
私の人生の愛と、紙吹雪と確信の爆発の中で結婚した。私たちは手で世界を形作れると信じて外に踏み出した。だが、車が私たちを引き離した。運命がその力を試すかのように、車は間に割り込み、彼の指先がほんの少し前に私の指先があった空気をかすめた。しかし、私は決して疑わなかった。彼はいつも私のもとへ戻ってくる。
彼はただ戻っただけではない。彼は交通を止めた。借りた制服を着て道の真ん中に立ち、街を止めて約束が墨で殴り書かれた紙切れを私に手渡した。住所。始まり。私たちの信頼から生まれる宇宙。
その贈り物はバラバラに届いた。説明書のない家。私たちをまだ知らない壁。彼は夜明けから月が高く昇るまで働き続け、私が気づく前に測り、打ち、間違いを直した。彼の手は決意の地図となった。板が合わず、屋根が疲れたため息のように垂れ下がっても、彼は家を信じていた。
嵐の中のひとときの静寂。私は混沌と埃に囲まれた浴槽に滑り込んだ。彼はカメラが私を見つめるのに気づき、優しくその目を手のひらで覆った。言葉はない。ただの手の盾と優しさ。愛は雷のような時もあれば、プライバシーが許された柔らかな音の時もある。その瞬間は教会すら聖別できない誓いのように感じられた。
しかし、風は悪役のように立ち上がった。汗で濡れたシャツと戦いで荒れ果てた手を無視して、ひどく吠えながら破壊した。まるで世界が私たちが築いた夢にしがみつく姿を見せる必要があるかのように家をぐるぐると回した。私たちは抱き合い、笑った。恐怖は笑いが守るものを奪えない。壁がまた落ち着いたとき、私たちは肩をすくめて何度も挑戦した。彼はいつもまた挑戦する。
私たちは車を家の壁に打ち付けた。まるで車輪のついたものがよりしっかりと地面に私たちを繋げるかのように。彼は一歩下がり、袖の木くずをはらい、重力に勝ったかのように微笑んだ。それでも彼は働いた。いつも働いた。努力が愛の言語であり、自分は流暢なスピーカーのように。
そして列車が来た。鋼鉄の無関心な咆哮。ホーンは空気とともに私の鼓動を裂いた。一瞬、時間は曲がり伸び、結婚式の紙吹雪が再び私の目の奥に舞い降り、世界を止めて私に手を伸ばした男を失いそうになった。宇宙はいつも献身を報いるわけではない。時には壊れるまで耐えられるか試す。私たちの家は千の飛び散る約束に砕けた。線路から引き裂かれた未来。
彼は負けを拒む剣のように「売り出し中」の看板を地面に立てた。その下には折りたたまれたメモが私たちの傷だけが読める真実をささやいた。失敗は終わりではない。壁は倒れても、私たちは立ち続ける。
私たちは一緒に歩き去った。後ろには家もなければ前に設計図もなかった。だが愛は設計図を必要としない。ただ手を離さないふたりがいるだけ。
そして前に進むとき、彼の指があの日、世界が私たちを引き裂こうとしたときのようにまた私の指に触れた。ただ今度は私が最初に握った。
私は嵐と列車に立ち向かう男を見つめた。頑固な希望だけを武器に未来を見据え、瓦礫の中にも可能性を見つけ、歓声はいらない尊厳を守る男。
私の心は唇より先に動いた。
かっこいいね。
