(Meaning of songs)

Kanda River

You have probably already forgotten
The times we went together
To the public bath down the side street
Wearing red towels as scarves
Even though you would say,
"Let's come out at the same time"
You always kept me waiting
My wet hair was chilled to the core
And my soap rattled in its dish
You hugged me in your arms and would say,
"You are cold"

I was young then and afraid of nothing
Only your gentleness frightened me

I wonder if you have already thrown away
My portrait that you drew
With the 24 color crayon set that you bought
Even though I would ask you to draw it well
It never resembled me at all
Below the window Kanda River flows by
And in a small 3-mat room
You looked at the tips of my fingers
And asked, "Are you sad?"

I was young then and not afraid of anything
Only your gentleness frightened me

I and my fife spent almost 7 years for the volunteer work in Sri Lanka.
We are not from the Government, but more Personal level.
We mainly made efforts to support the victims after the Tsunami.
Now we are helping the few orphanages.

When we go back to Japane a few month a year, I sing on the streets with my guitar and sell my CDs. This is help to raise sport for Sri Lanka.
Then I just found out this site, seems like a lot of people using the site.
And I thought that maybe I can find somebody who can play with me.
Also I can share what I have with music and other things.
Nice to talking with you. see you.
