朝は突然に
きみのドアをたたく
離れ離れになるときみは気づく
そして恐れてる
ぼくはためらってる
きみの瞳はなにを物語ってる
迎えにいこう
きみの待っている場所へ
走っていこう
きみに早く会えるように
ちからいっぱい
きみを抱きしめたい
生きていくために
家を空けるのは
男の務めだと父親はいった
そして同じことを
息子はくり返す
孤独を抱いた子どもがまたひとり
迎えにいこう
きみの待っている丘に
走っていこう
坂道を駆けのぼって
ちからいっぱい
きみを抱きしめたい
淋しさをきみは
何でまぎらわす
淋しさと毎日 戦ってるのか
いつでもずっと
そばにいれたらいいのに
泣きたいときは
思いきって泣いていいよ
ちからいっぱい
きみを抱きしめたい
Baby Oh, Baby
きみを抱きしめたい

Hug
Iwashita Keisuke Sardine
"Don't Let Me Go" was released in September 1996 and is Keisuke Iwashita's only self-produced CD. Production began in April and took about three months to complete. All lyrics, composition, arrangement, performance, singing, recording, editing, and cover illustrations were done by Iwashita himself. My partner gave me appropriate advice during the recording, so I credited her with "directions." At the time, I didn't have a computer, so I asked Kojima Recording in Yoyogi to do the mastering and printing. I ordered 500 sheets and 5 cardboard boxes. I priced it at 2,000 yen, but only about 200 copies were sold. Afterwards, I handed them out to people (I still have about 100 copies left in my closet).
The following is a quote from Kazuhiko Yukikawa, which was published in the "Independent Edition" of "Music Magazine January 1997" (pages 266-267).
"Don't Let Me Go" is a CD containing seven songs, mostly played and sung on the piano. It has a smooth flow similar to the quiet songs of Elton John, Todd Rundgren, and Pete Townshend, an oozing pop sensibility, and a heartrending voice and melody that remain in your heart.
Artist Profile
Iwashita Keisuke Sardine
My name is Iwashita Keisuke, also known as Sardine. Over the 18 years from 1985 to 2002, I recorded about 150 songs that I recorded over multiple tracks by myself. I will release these songs one by one in 2024. First, I released the anthology "Catchy 22" a collection of familiar songs, on February 24th. Next, I released the bitter-sweet second anthology, "Sardine's Confession" on March 23rd. On April 27th, I released a collection of socially conscious works, "21st Century Protest Songs." Then, I will release "50/50," a piano and vocal album, on May 24th. After that, she released her first collection of works, "Everything/Nothing," on June 23rd, followed by a gem of a collection of lyrical poems, "Don't Let Me Go," on July 15th, and "Cut 'N' Paste," a collection of controversial works. It is scheduled to be Released on August 10th. "Henshin" will be released on November 16th, where I attempted a love song. These are oldies but evergreen songs that depict a mixture of romanticism, cold-heartedness, and passion, as well as incoherent anxiety and a longing for something that cannot be reached. Please listen to Sardine's songs.
