If you let me
Go back to the time
When I fell in love
Won’t you let me fall in love again?

At its core, it is a song that encapsulates a yearning and hope for reconciliation and reunification. Amidst the heavy themes, it offers solace through its comforting and gentle melody.
They said that the tigers used to live together
But got separated some time ago
I hope you get to visit the forest of tigers after you’ve grown up
3. Letter

Once again when I think of you
I will run to you one step at a time
All your swallowed emotions
Please write a letter to me
