From Album: On Fire (2001)


Lyrics translation:

Just reported, as if it was heard in my dreams
7 O'clock , Severe rainstorm cancelled half day of work
Realising it's been thousands of days, occupied by over all sorts of business
As if it's neverending, not knowing why

Black and white　Rising and sinking between hands
Turning the page
Piano keys urging my fingertips to tap
Seems like this habit has been neglected
Used to spend days and nights at the piano
On worse weather, it did not matter much

Chorus 1:
Dust covering the wooden bench　
uncovering this white piano on a black rainy day
Let me gently caress this resonating sound texture
Piano chords accompanying melody
can't help but take avantage of this black rainy day
Leaving this host shaken
Cherishing the black rain that made this day captivating

Chorus 2:
Dust covering the wooden bench　
uncovering this white piano on a black rainy day
Let me gently caress this resonating sound texture
Piano chords accompanying melody
Let go of yesterday's distress
Even in a downpour and dark clouds　
Don't make me wait
Let my pair of hands rediscover those lost footprints
