Sono Mama de / The Way You Are
Rose Album

I could’ve sipped a wine hiji o atama ni nosete
sou yatte maiasa sugoshiteru okiru made yeah
nagareru kuruma ya baiku no oto ni nosete
noshikakaru you na nemuke ni good bye!

Although I long for the better days, you are the only answer for me
mousou no mama de owatta omoi wa away away away


mou kienai kotoba sae ukabanai hodo ni muchuu ni naru

sono mama de kotoba sae kazaranai mama de ite yo nee I have to know you

You could’ve sipped a wine, and have a good time together
hanbun na jibun ni wakare o away

Although I long for a better place, I know this is the true home for me
aa zenbu ni naritakute away

mou kienai kotoba sae ukabanai hodo ni muchuu ni naru

sono mama de kotoba sae kazaranai mama de ite yo nee I have to know you
In my days...

negaitai yorokobi o sekaijuu no uta atsumete sing like this

owaranai kono omoi atarashii kaze ni fukarete... I have to know you

Inside your eyes...
I could’ve sipped a wine, stretching my elbows up to my head
That’s how I spend every morning until I get up, yeah
Riding on the sounds of a stream of cars and bikes,
almost falling over from sleepiness – good bye!

Although I long for the better days, you are the only answer for me
Caught up in wild dreams, those over-and-done-with feelings are away away away

You’re still here – I’m so crazy for you that even words won’t come to mind properly
The way you are – unadorned and honest even with your words is so you, isn’t it? I have to know you

You could’ve sipped a wine, and have a good time together
It feels like half of me has been split up and away

Although I long for a better place, I know this is the true home for me
Ah, wanting for so long to become everything – away

You’re still here – I’m so crazy for you that even words won’t come to mind properly
The way you are – unadorned and honest even with your words is so you, isn’t it? I have to know you
In my days...

I want to wish for your happiness by gathering songs from throughout the world that sing like this
With these neverending emotions blowing towards a new wind... I have to know you
Inside your eyes...

Rie's liner notes:  “Living and sharing music” was the image I had this time for my opening track. Compared to up until now, when I’ve just done as I please instead of deciding on a theme before making a song, for the first time I did decide on a theme: “a track that would go well with going to work/school in the morning.”
Under a transparent blue sky, the scenery around me comes alive, and it feels like everything is sparkling.
