草加松原　たたずめば

傘にパラパラ　しのび雨

お前の好きな　煎餅の

焦げた香りが　胸を突く

どこへ行ったか　面影よ

夜の綾瀬川水面が揺れる

あぁ…　逢いたくて

逢いたくて

心が震える　草加の夜

駅の改札　人混みに

ふっとお前の　背を探す

「お疲れさま」と　微笑んだ

あの日の声が　耳に残る

バカな男の　ひとり言

ネオンにじむ　スナックの窓

あぁ…　恋しくて　恋しくて

お前を呼んでる　草加の夜

明日の行き先　知らないが

未練ひとすじ　抱きしめて

日光街道　どこまでも

歩いてゆこうか　雨の中

せめて今夜は　夢でいい

酔って切ない　男の涙

あぁ…　逢いたくて

逢いたくて

お前がすべてさ　草加の夜

[Title]
A Melancholy Love Ballad Set in Japan's Historic Town: New Single "Soka Shinobi-ame (Soka City: The Stealthy Rain)" Released!

[Description]
Experience the deep emotional landscape of Japan through this traditional-style cinematic ballad, "Soka Shinobi-ame" (Soka City: The Stealthy Rain).

The song is set in Soka City, Saitama Prefecture-a historic post town along the famous Nikko Kaido highway, renowned for its scenic pine tree promenade ("Soka Matsubara") and traditional rice crackers ("Soka Senbei").

Under a gentle, quiet rain (Shinobi-ame), a heartbroken man wanders through the town, triggered by the nostalgic scent of toasted rice crackers and the neon lights of retro bar districts. As he searches for the phantom of his lost love by the ripples of the Ayase River, his tears blend with the rain on the historic highway.

Combining the unique aesthetics of Japanese Enka/Kayokyoku (urban blues) with vivid cultural imagery, this track captures the universal essence of longing and heartbreak. Perfect for fans of Japanese culture, retro vibes, and emotional storytelling.
