This is my favourite song (lyrics wise) off the new album! It’s almost like I have a thing for heart breaking ballads 😘 It’s a sad love song about having a broken heart be washed away by a rain of tears.
Original Japanese: Utaten
English Translation:
To start with I didn’t want to get wet
But once I started to get wet I didn’t care anymore
For example, just like this rain
I wonder if I’ll get used to my scars one day too
From time to time I want to get a little bit wet
It makes me stronger, this rain of tears
The words you said, the hand that has let go of mine
All soaking wet and melting away, the four letters of that word
The pouring rain of tears
The sky sees straight into to my heart
My umbrella soaks right through
The rain of tears will be over soon
I’ll be at peace and say “goodbye” with a smile
It’s like the sky is revealing how I feel inside
A rain heavier than ever before
Drenches the hat you gave me
I remember that day
Like a fool that is going to catch a cold
I run home like a child
The sun sets and the day comes to an end
The play list we listened to that day
I wonder how those songs will feel when I listen to them now
The pouring rain of tears
The sky sees straight into to my heart
My umbrella soaks right through
The rain of tears will be over soon
I’ll be at peace and say “goodbye” with a smile
The sky reveals how I feel inside, but…
There are many times the sun will shine and many the rain will fall
This rain of tears is the result of a smile
Only during this rain of tears is it the perfect time
To cry with all my heart
The pouring rain of tears
The sky sees straight into to my heart
My umbrella soaks right through
This rain of tears that wasn’t forecast
Strong and cold, this rain of tears
But still, the sun will shine again one day
To start with I didn’t want to get wet
But once I started to get wet I didn’t care anymore
I admit I’m not much into ballads but this one just pulls at you heartstrings. I loved the chorus the moment the preview was released, and I feel like ebi captured the feeling pretty well. And the same goes with your translation! I like reading while listening to the song and asdlajlal I felt that!
btw I think these two lines got misplaced and should be 6 lines up?
“The play list we listened to that day” / “I wonder how those songs will feel when I listen to them now”
Thank you for the translation, Claire!! 💜 Looking forward to the rest 😍
