Rain
Incapable of words, frozen in place,
I'd lived gently in front of the eyes of the world.
In order to shift the burden, so crudely,
I embraced you in the rainy night.
The buildings by the road, the broken streetlamps -
At the street corner, everyone was in a rush.
It's not you; the fault lies with me,
Unable to hide my own intensity.
Lady, you're shrouded in the rain.
I ran for a bit through the empty station.
"I don't mind getting caught in the downpour."
"I don't mind being soaked to the bone."
As you kick up the water beneath your feet, you fade away.
Morning comes early in the back streets,
So I try to catch you while I still can -
"Don't go, don't go,"
I call out.
Now we live separately. I no longer have the strength
To grasp the sky that's on the verge of tears.
If you'd stay unchanging, in a corner of my heart, always hurting me,
I don't need you anymore.
Lady, you were soaked by the rain,
And you looked into my eyes for a little while.
"I don't mind getting caught in the downpour."
"I don't mind being soaked to the bone."
Whistling, I follow.
Even though I've come to know you far too well,
Just as I did on the night we first fought,
"Don't go, don't go,"
I call out.
By the time the shirt, shoulders dry, passes through the ticket gate,
The rain has already subsided to a drizzle in your city.
Only today can continue to tomorrow.
In this way, I can't end it with you.
Lady, even now, you go on this way,
Holding not even a small umbrella...
"I don't mind getting caught in the downpour."
"I don't mind being soaked to the bone."
As you kick up the water beneath your feet, you fade away.
Morning comes early in the back streets,
So I try to catch you while I still can -
"Don't go, don't go,"
I call out.
"I don't mind getting caught in the downpour."
"I don't mind being soaked to the bone."
As you kick up the water beneath your feet, you fade away.
Morning comes early in the back streets,
So I try to catch you while I still can -
"Don't go, don't go,"
I call out.
