Lyric

The Close of Summer

Chao

入道雲がオレンジに染まる

赤トンボたちが飛び交う空

風に少しの爽やかさを感じた

九月の夕暮れ

落葉樹が少し色を変えている

鈴虫たちが奏でる公園

羽の音色に涼しさを感じた

九月の夕暮れ

寂しくなった砂浜

プールも水着も

そろそろ終わり

秋が近く覗いている

A holiday spot, thinning out as summer nears its close

(夏の終わりが近づくにつれて人が減っていく行楽地)

I longed to savor it once more, yet summer is truly coming to an end

(もう一度楽しみたかったけど、本当にもう夏が終わるんだね)

今年の夏に終わりが近づく

熱過ぎた太陽も優しくなり

沈む時間も早くなった

また来年も夏は来る…

The close of summer

なぜこんなに夏の終わりは

寂しい気持ちにさせるんだ

夏祭りに盆踊り

花火大会や夏フェス

夏旅、海水浴

川遊び、甲子園

夏イベントは全て終わった

楽しかった夏休みも

Guess we'll have to wait until next summer

(また次の夏までおあずけってことだね)

穂を出し始めたススキが

ゆらゆらしている

空は高くなり

うろこ曇が見えてきた

灼熱の夏

青春の夏

思い出の夏

過ぎ行く夏

戻らない夏

A wistful blue summer

(青く切ない夏)

パラソルのない砂浜

スイカも氷も

そろそろ終わり

秋が近く覗いている

A holiday spot, thinning out as summer nears its close

I longed to savor it once more, yet summer is truly coming to an end

今年の夏に終わりが近づく

熱過ぎた太陽も優しくなり

沈む時間も早くなった

また来年も夏は来る…

The close of summer

なぜこんなに夏の終わりは

寂しい気持ちにさせるんだ

今年の夏も もう終わるんだ

熱過ぎた思い出たちと共に

この冬を越そうじゃないか

また来年も夏は来るから

The close of summer

なぜこんなに夏の終わりは

寂しい気持ちにさせるんだ

The close of summer

なんで毎年夏の終わりは

切ない気持ちになるのだろう…

The close of summer

The close of summer

Thank you, summer!

    The Close of Summer

    Chao

Even with all this heat, I still love summer.
And when it comes to an end, I can't help but feel a little sad.
Do you all love summer too?
Did you make some good memories this summer?
Please enjoy this song that's just perfect for the end of summer:)

Artist Profile

  • Chao

    I used to play bass in a band, and for a while I was also the vocalist. We mainly performed original rock and punk songs. After the band broke up, I stopped making music for a long time. At the beginning of 2025, I encountered AI music generation while creating a theme song for an event, and that led me to start writing lyrics again. "I still prefer songs and music created by people over those generated by AI. I don't think that will ever change. However, starting a music career requires instruments, equipment, and technical knowledge, which always felt like a huge hurdle for me. With the arrival of generative AI, many of those barriers have been lowered. Of course, new challenges have come with it as well... but even so, I'm excited about the possibilities that this technology offers. That said, if I leave everything to AI, I don't feel any personal attachment to the songs, so I write all the lyrics myself." "As for songwriting, when I'm writing lyrics, I already see the song's imagery and hear the music in my head. That's why, once I finish writing the lyrics, I first create the jacket artwork based on that vision. After that, I use AI to generate the music that had been floating in my mind during the writing process, recreating it over and over again until it matches my image as closely as possible. Then, I fine-tune the details of the arrangement until I'm satisfied, and only then do I release the song." "Since the vocals are not human, sometimes the words come out in a strange or awkward way, and I find myself going, 'Huh? What did it just say?' But honestly, I think that's part of AI's current charm. I'm sure one day it will become flawless... but in a way, I think that might feel a little lonely."
