(Breathy, intimate, low)
いつもの時間に 水を替えそうになる
窓を開けたまま 風だけ通る
玄関の隅に そのままの紐
片付ける理由が まだ見つからない
[Pre-Chorus]
(Strings enter softly)
雨の匂いがして
季節だけ進む
何か言いかけて
やめたまま
[Chorus]
(Full, soaring, strings swell)
十五年ぶんの足音が
まだ消えない
振り向くたびに
そこにいるみたい
空いた場所だけ
少し暖かい
名前を呼べば
遠くなるのに
[Verse 2]
(Piano and voice, add cello)
眠れない夜も
今なら 愛おしむ
困った顔ごと
そっと 抱きしめる
小さな毛布の
ぬくもりが 残る
触れれば何かが
ほどけそう
[Pre-Chorus]
紫陽花の色が
滲んで見える
昨日の続きが
ないだけなのに
[Chorus]
(Bigger, full strings)
十五年ぶんの季節が
まだ終わらない
閉じた扉に
手を伸ばしてしまう
空の器が
静かに光る
言葉にすれば
こぼれそうだから
[Bridge]
(Everything drops to near silence, a held breath)
[Drop Chorus]
(Piano and bare voice only, quietest)
十五年ぶんの足音が
まだ消えない
名前を呼べば
遠くなるのに
[Outro]
(Piano fading, almost whispered, unresolved)
風が止むころ
少し眠ろう
残ったものを
名前にするなら
たぶん
まだ

Fifteen Years of Footsteps
YUI
"Fifteen Years of Footsteps" is an emotional ballad about the memories that remain after someone precious is gone.
The everyday routines.
The quiet moments.
The simple presence we once took for granted.
Sometimes what disappears from sight never truly leaves our hearts.
This song explores loss, remembrance, gratitude, and the warmth left behind by a life shared together.
Rather than saying goodbye, it reflects on the traces that remain-the footsteps, the memories, and the love that continues to exist in silence.
May this song bring comfort to anyone remembering someone dear.
Written and Composed by YUI
