Go Away
中原めいこ Lyrics

The lyrics above are from the song "Go Away" by 中原めいこ. The song is about a painful parting, as the singer bids farewell to a loved one. The first stanza talks about September and bidding goodbye in the city. The dry wind serves as an epilogue to their relationship. The second stanza talks about how distant the person has become although the singer still loves them. She compares losing them to losing a ring in the sea. In the third stanza, Meiko wishes she had a magic spell that would stop the person from leaving. She accepts that feelings can change but confesses that she still loves the person. The final stanza reflects her desire to go back in time to meet the person she fell in love with when they first met but knows that person is gone, and somebody else is in their place. She tells him to leave quickly and not give her a chance to cry.

The song captures the pain of a relationship that has ended, and even though the singer still loves the other person, she has come to accept that it's time to move on. The bittersweet melody and poignant lyrics evoke feelings of nostalgia and longing for something that was once beautiful but has now come to an end. The use of the wind as an epilogue is a clever way of symbolizing the end of a relationship, and the imagery of losing a ring in the sea captures the sense of loss and regret one feels when a significant relationship ends.
