音時雨 ~Regentropfen~

★ vintage love

In the day before yesterday, it rained all the day. During the night, I looped the song “vintage love” by KOKIA. To choose a song to fit the weather is important to get a good ambience. That night, only this song was the best one to fit the slightly cool or rather chilly time. That's also kinda strangely, since in such a peaceful song, I was drawing an extreme cute character, Sakura from the animation “Card Capter Sakura,” I didn't feel anything unmatched.
I love raining days, I love KOKIA and her songs, and that drawing in the raining night.

雨ならいいのに...傘をさして寄り添う
目深にかざして人込みに紛れるの
チカ チカ ネオンの谷で 肩寄せ確かめあうの
このまま朝まで 雨音に抱かれよう
そのまま眠りが醒めなければいいのに...
ショパンの調べに似た雨音がずっと
秘密を守って静かに降り注ぐの
ユラ ユラ 揺れるろうそく
消える頃には明るくなるの
朝まで止まない予報が当たればいい
都会の夜にはお似合いの寂しい音

it's fine even if it rains... we put up umbrellas and get closer
and hid into the crowd with our sights covered
we confirmed each other, in the deep flashing neon lights
let's embrace in the tones of rain, all the time
it would be so nice if we never awake, all the time...
like Chopin's melody, held the secret
the tone of rain continued in silence
the flickering candles swung and became brighter
at the moment of being vanished
that would be so nice if the forecast of a continuing rain was true
there were only lonely sounds that fitted a city night
