しゃくなげの雨
田川寿美 Lyrics

The lyrics to 田川寿美's song しゃくなげの雨 tell the story of a woman who has recently gone through a break up. The song begins with her leaving the train station in Kamakura and feeling like she has finally sorted out her thoughts and emotions. She then goes to a temple to pay her respects and leave behind the memories of her past relationship.

The woman reflects on the pain and sadness she experienced during the relationship, which was nothing more than a one-sided love where she constantly cried. She is tired of waiting for something that will never come and can no longer bear the rain that brings back memories of the painful separation. She then admits that she is still a woman with emotions and needs.

In the second verse, the woman talks about the three years she spent with her partner, during which time she learned the taste of alcohol but also went through a lot of emotional turmoil. Although other people comment on how beautiful she looks now, all of her changes were just a result of her trying to deal with her anguish. She also confesses that she has been stubborn and lied to herself and others about her feelings for so long.

Overall, the song is a melancholic reflection on the pain of lost love and the difficulty of moving on.
