Lyric

By the time it dries

Yuu

朝の光が

カーテン越し

昨日の雨を

忘れてく

洗濯物を

抱えながら

ベランダまで

運んでく

白いTシャツ

青いタオル

風に揺れてる

見慣れた景色

ひとつだけ

変わったのは

キミが

いないこと

乾くころには

忘れるかな

そんなこと

思ってみるけど

風が吹くたび

思い出すから

まだ少し

困ってる

靴下ひとつ

飛ばされそうで

慌てて掴んで

笑ってる

こんな話を

キミにしたら

きっとまた

笑っただろうな

時間だけは

ちゃんと進む

洗濯物も

乾いていく

乾くころには

平気かな

そんなこと

何度も思うけど

空の青さが

眩しい日は

少しだけ

寂しくなる

残ったハンガー

揺れるたび

季節だけが

先に行く

乾くころには

笑えるかな

今日よりも

少しだけでも

白いTシャツ

風の向こうへ

手を振って

The Thing I Left Behind Was Summer.

Summer always seems to end before we even realize it.

The stone steps leading to a shrine, the lively morning glory market, the sound of wind chimes, a river glowing at sunset, lanterns at the summer festival, fireworks lighting up the night sky, and a single earbud left behind on the walk home.

These ten songs are a collection of small memories, carefully gathered from the quiet moments that make a summer unforgettable.

The joyful days, the bittersweet ones, the laughter we shared, and the feelings we never found the words to express-all of them continue to drift quietly through time. Yet somewhere deep inside us, the breeze, the scent, and the sounds of those days never truly disappear.

"The Thing I Left Behind Was Summer." is not an album about searching for something that was lost.

It is an album about remembering what we unknowingly left behind as we grew older.

May the sound of your own unforgettable summer continue to echo gently in your heart, long after the music has faded.

Artist Profile

  • Yuu

    Yuu is a singer songwriter who began her journey performing on the streets. With acoustic guitar at the core of her sound, she portrays everyday scenes and the quiet distance between herself and society through honest lyrics that never exaggerate emotion. Her music avoids loud statements and fixed conclusions, focusing instead on discomfort that belongs to no one in particular and on the act of continuing to think while living. Rather than expressing anger or presenting answers, Yuu writes songs about pausing, questioning, and choosing again. Keeping the intimacy of her street performances, her voice gently blends into the daily lives of listeners. For Yuu, music is not a tool to prove what is right, but a voice that allows her to live each day by her own will.
