(In English is the upper, in Japanese is the lower.)

This song was written long long ago. Although I though that I could not remember anything about this song, I remembered it clearly. So, I decided to record this song as like a bonus track.

Except this song, all song lyric was written by myself. But the lyric of this song was written by two my old friends. They handed over the lyric to me separately. I had felt their lyrics could be connected together. The connected lyrics showed consistent meaning strangely. So, I wrote the music to coincide their lyrics.

I am very poor at doing well socially so that I do not know not only both this lyric writers contact but also how they are doing now. I listed them by just family names with Mr. and Ms. in the credit. If you have a few guess about them, please let me know.

As same as my " Bang Your Drums “, this song represented The Beatles influence straightforwardly. This song have a different color than other my composed songs. The band who I had participated in during younger days played this song a few times only in the club circuit.


The lyric is below.

L.L.W.

She is working hard everyday
And she want to be better half
Anyone looks for someone
She said that nothing is changed

Lonely lovely lonely lonely lovely
Lonely lovely lonely lonely lovely woman

At the party we attended
In a tiny room the laughter sounds
They are high but all are suffering
Nothing is about to be changed

Lonely lovely lonely lonely lovely
Lonely lovely lonely lonely lovely

Yeah lovely lonely woman
She said that she will be better half
Yeah lovely lonely woman
She said that nothing is changed

Yeah lovely lonely woman
She said that she will be better half
Yeah lovely lonely woman
She said that nothing is changed

She is working hard everyday
And she want to be better half
Anyone looks for someone
She said that nothing is changed

Lonely lovely lonely lonely lovely
Lonely lovely lonely lonely lovely woman

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Hello how are you

 この曲はずいぶん昔に書いた曲です。この曲については何一つ思い出せないだろうと思ったのですが、きれいに全部思い出しました。せっかくなので、ボーナス・トラック的にこの曲を録音してみることにしました。

 この曲を除いて、全ての歌曲の歌詞は私自身で書いていますが、この曲の歌詞は、私の古い友人が二人で書いてくれたものです。二人ともばらばらに、それぞれ書いた詩を私に渡してくれたのですが、私は彼らの詩を一つに出来るんじゃないかと思い、つないでみたところ、面白いことに、つないだ詩は一貫した意味を持っていました。ですので、そのつないだ詩に合うように、この曲を書きました。

 私は人付き合いがとても苦手なので、この詩を書いてくれた二人の連絡先どころか、今どうしているのかすら知りません。クレジットには、敬称つきで苗字のみで掲載しました。心当たりのある方は、お知らせください。

 「Bang Your Drums」と同様、ビートルズの影響を素直に出した曲です。私の他の曲にはないカラーの曲となっています。若い頃参加してたバンドがライブハウス回りをする中で、数回ほど、この曲を演奏したことがあります。

 歌詞、クレジットともに上述してあります。
