Rain fills all my heart
I am drenched in it, my love
You came to stay in my heart and showered a gentle drizzle
What will happen to me, my love... my love...
You came into my sight and stole me away
What will happen to me, my love... my love...
Was it the moon that came at night?
My beautiful one, it was only your face
Even the bright moon wanes after its time
Your beauty will never fade, my moon
Is it the sun burning through the day?
My beautiful one, it is only your gaze
Your eyelashes are weapons fighting a war
My love... what are you doing to me?
Oh rain...
Because of you, my heart blossoms like a flower... oh...
Rain fills all my heart
I am drenched in it, my love...
Like birds flying across the sky
You and I could be born
We could forget the whole world...
Ah, in different corners of the sky
We could wander and drift apart
We could fly... we could float...
Becoming the wind, let us go hand in hand
Becoming clouds, here and there
We shall swing back and forth...
Is it really possible to live in a dream?
Is this magic happening right before me?
Are the sights my eyes see just a trick?
Where is my body drifting away to?
It is truly possible to live in a dream
And my dream will surely come true
I will hold your hand this very moment
Your image will live inside me forever
Oh rain...
Because of you, my heart blossoms like a flower... oh...
Rain fills all my heart
I am drenched in it, my love...
Once we melt into love
All sense of time will fade away
Even the weather will change...
In a seven-colored rainbow
A hundred colors will appear
Everything is pure magic
Rain will drizzle alongside the sunshine
Becoming clouds, here and there
We shall swing back and forth
Stars never come down to earth
Even if they come, the eyes do not see them
Even if seen, the hands do not touch them
If touched, what will happen to my heart?
Stars do come down to earth
And when they come, our eyes do see them
And when seen, our hands do touch them
And if touched, your heart will turn to love
Oh rain...
Because of you, my heart blossoms like a flower... oh...
Rain fills all my heart...
