Even here in the north, the summer sun bites my skin
Bringing back the days in that city, where we used to live
"It’s not like me," I say with a hollow smile
Refusing to admit I’m still lost in the denial
My shadow trembles in the haze, breathing out a sigh
The sorrowful song I taught you long ago
Do you still remember how it used to flow?
That painful love we couldn’t help but know
Only the "goodbye" we shouted in the rain
Left behind, swaying in the summer wind
Maybe it’s not so bad, to feel this lingering pain
Keep your life just as it is, but let me ask you
Could you have stayed in love with me, only in your heart?
I tried to stir a Gin and Tonic, just like you used to make
Imitating your hands, but it’s a bitter mistake
It never tastes the same, no matter how much I shake
"It’s not like you," I hear your voice tease me
The scent of summer flows, making it hard to be free
I catch my breath, as memories rush over me
The sorrowful song I taught you long ago
If I hum it now, would it make a little show?
A bitter laugh for a girl who can't let go
Only the "goodbye" we chose to leave behind
Left alone, swaying in the summer light
Maybe it’s not so bad, this peace I’m trying to find

Not Like Me
1Tatsu
The definitive epilogue to the "Can't Throw Away Innocence" series, marking the true conclusion of the long-running story. Following "Fuko," a woman who once chose to leave her love behind to preserve its beauty before they could hurt each other. Years after that day she accelerated away into the distance, she now sits in a northern city, stirring a gin and tonic alone and confronting her past. This track is the hallmark of 1Tatsu's "Afrobeat Folk" style. The breezy percussion and melancholic folk guitar beautifully sublimate her "one and only selfish wish" to remain loved in his heart forever. Experience the final chapter of an immortal love story, now deepened through English lyrics.
