Rainy Days ~ Dear Nancy Front Cover

Lyric

On a rainy day

Takemi Otsuki

いつも 気まぐれだった 話すこともないくせに

電話を かけてみたり 長い手紙を 書いてみたり そんなお前

いつも 淋しそうで 何気ない 横顔さえ

どこか 暗い翳りが たまらなく 抱き寄せてみたい そんなお前

オレが突然に 「逢ってほしい」 云った

雨降りの朝 傘もささずに 走って 来てくれた

そんなことも あったっけ

本当に愛して いてくれたのか

とても 不安だったけど

サヨナラを オレから 言い出した時

初めて 涙を 見せたね

後ろをむいて いつまでも

泣いていた 帰らない 恋だけど

雨降りの日は 来てくれるようで

なぜか 落ち着かないよ

いつも 気まぐれな 君だから 君だから

どこか 投げ遣りだった 同じ時間 積み重ねて

求めた 白い肌に 吐息一つが 残っていた そんなお前

なぜか 震えていた 絡めた指 離さないと

きっと 口に出せずに 別れの予感 信じていた そんなお前

オレが夢破れ 打ちひしがれた夜

突然の雨 激しい風も お前と 二人なら

耐えて行ける 気がしてた

愛された記憶が 何もなければ

言葉 一つ 知らなくて

最後は 戸惑いばかり募って

サヨナラ それしか 云えずに

お前の涙 拭えずに

振り向いて 去っていく 恋だけど

雨降りの日は 声が聞こえそうで

胸が 苦しくなるよ

遠く 離れた 君だけど 君だけど

    Takemi Otsuki

I began writing lyrics and music in the latter half of junior high school. I started by having my music teacher correct me and writing songs to lyrics spelled out by a girl in my class.

Her name was Ms. Nancy.

From that time on, I wrote the lyrics first and then spun the melody. We went to separate high schools, but we exchanged lyrics like a correspondence. We wrote more than 30 songs together in that way.

When I put music to the lyrics that someone else had written, I would encounter word choices and word arrangements that I had not envisioned, and the melodies inspired by them would become gems of music that would not have come from my own lyrics.

For this album, I decided to bring back the nostalgic memories of those days and to convey new life to those songs, so I newly arranged, performed, and sang almost all the songs with supplementary lyrics, while using DTM, an electronic piano-based system.

And in her honor, we decided to call it "Dear Nancy".

And for the lyric card, we asked pupapo design to illustrate and draw the lovely scenes attracted by each song with a touch of watercolor painting. I would like to express our deepest gratitude to them.
