nukumori sae mo nai, nai, nai
tada furi tsudukeru ame on kodama shi te
futari madowa seru no? Oh no
teki na no ka mikata na no ka wakara nai
demo It's time to pay the price
subete ga kawaru shunkan
yama nai nai te mo
yama nai inot te mo
watashi tachi wo ima washing away
mou tsunagi tome rare nai
saigo no daishou ha sou
Just let it rain let it rain let it rain
Just let it rain let it rain let it rain
mi te nai furi shi te mukiat te ko nakat ta
kizui te ta noni It's over, over
tae nai ame ha sou azawarau ka no you ni
sarani tatakitsukeru
teki na no ka mikata na no ka wakara nai
demo It's time to pay the price
subete ga kawaru shunkan
yama nai nai te mo
yama nai inot te mo
watashi tachi wo ima washing away
mou tsunagi tome rare nai
saigo no daishou ha sou
Just let it rain let it rain let it rain
Just let it rain let it rain let it rain
ame agattato tatoe anata no sugata naku te mo
Gotta go, gotta let you go
kitto watashi wa tomadowa nai wa aruki hajimeru
Sun will shine...
yama nai nai te mo
yama nai inot te mo
watashi tachi wo ima washing away
mou tsunagi tome rare nai
saigo no daishou ha sou
Just let it rain let it rain let it rain
Just let it rain let it rain let it rain
The lyrics of Shojo Jidai's "Let It Rain" reflect the emotions of a person who is going through a difficult time in their life. The song starts with the singer noticing the mysterious light shining in the night sky, but even that light cannot bring warmth to them. As they continue to walk in the rain, feeling lost and unsure, they wonder if they are being led astray with someone else. The vague question of whether they are with a friend or a foe is irrelevant; they realize that they have to face the consequences of their actions.
The chorus highlights the cathartic nature of the rain for the singer. The rain is a metaphor for the problems in their life, which they are unable to escape. Though they try to resist, the problems are stronger and determine their fate, and the singer ultimately accepts the situation and lets it wash over them. The rain washes away everything, and the singer is prepared to accept the final reward.
The final section of the song reflects the singer's acceptance and willingness to move on from the past. Even though they have to let go of something that once held importance to them, they are prepared to take the next step forward in life. The sun will shine again, and they will continue through the journey, regardless of what rains come their way.

I was only 14 when this was released. Fast forward to 10 years later, it's still gold.

Their 1st Japanese album was solid and one of my all time favourite albums from a kpop group.
@weirdcoincidence
Jessica and Seohyun's voice color/harmonization (?) always kills me. They're simply astonishing.

SJJD's Japanese discography is gold and I think one of the best out of any other Japanese songs sung by Korean idols
