[English]

You're crying, sobbing, what should I say?

...

It's pathetic, but I can't find a single word.

In love, always searching for a place to escape, I've truly lost my real home.

The rain has been falling continuously in this room.

No matter how I hold you, it only makes us both wet.

I didn't know how to love, so I didn't even know how to be loved.

...

We were chasing the same dream, yet heading towards completely different futures.

We could only hurt each other.

On the day we met, we were nurturing moments we could call "happiness."

But now, our smiles are drenched.

Desperately overlapping again and again, sadness leaks from my lips.

Hey, what was it that you were seeking from me? I want you to tell me.

Before the rain stops, you will surely leave this room, while opening a new umbrella... Rainy Room.

No matter how I hold you, it only makes us both wet.

I didn't know how to love, so I didn't even know how to be loved.

It's raining, Rainy Room...

...

[Japanese]

君が泣いてる 泣きじゃくってる 何を言えばいい？

情けないけど 言葉が ひとつも見つからないんだ

逃げる場所を探してばかりいた恋は ホントの居場所なくしたね

この部屋に雨がずっと降り続いてる

もうどんなふうに君だけを 抱きしめたってふたり濡れるだけ

愛し方 そんなこと知らずにいたから 愛され方さえも知らなかったんだ

同じ夢を 一緒に見て 全然違う未来を

追いかけてた 僕らは 傷つけ合うしかなかった

出逢った日は「シアワセ」と呼べる瞬間確かに育んでいたのに

今では 笑顔がびしょ濡れになってる

くるおしく何度も重ねてた クチビルから 悲しみが漏れる

ねえ君が この僕に 求めてたものは一体何だったのか 教えて欲しい

雨が止む前に 君はきっとこの部屋を 出ていくんだろう 新しい 傘を広げながら... Rainy Room

もうどんなふうに君だけを 抱きしめたってふたり濡れるだけ

愛し方 そんなこと 知らずにいたから愛され方さえも 知らなかったんだ

雨が降る Rainy Room...
