Story Behind The Song
This song was written as my way of dealing with the grief I experienced when my Nan passed away. The song is bittersweet, and the lyrics are based on a draft set of English lyrics I wrote when I was 13. The title means 'I want to see one more sunrise', because those are the words my nan said the day before she died. She got her wish, and died shortly after that last sunrise~
Song Description
This is a piano ballad which I started working on quite a while ago. It's a fairly simple song, the lyrics are in Japanese because I think Japanese sounds much prettier sung than English.
At the time the lyrics were written I was not very good at it, so there are grammatical errors in them. But the meaning is still clear, so I've left them the way I originally penned them.
Cele is a friend of mine from Finland who I met online about a year ago. He arranged and played the instruments in this recording for me.
