Discover the story of the song > April Showers – Aimer

The lyrics talk about a protagonist who is standing in the rain, looking at the town and feeling a sense of nostalgia. The protagonist mentions someone who was always by their side, even on rainy days. They remember past views and finding shelter under a tree. The protagonist also mentions feeling small and young, like a crying child. The chorus talks about the rain in April and how it makes the protagonist's wings wet. The protagonist waits for the sun and dreams of flying. The lyrics also mention a night where they stopped time and looked at the stars. They remember the words exchanged before sleep and the things they didn't want to lose. As time passes, the protagonist finds it harder to walk forward and feels the coldness of passing showers. They hold onto something valuable and keep it in their bag, still remembering the warmth of their partner's hand. In the bridge, thunder sounds like the invitation to a spring storm. The lyrics mention seeing the same scenery with someone in the past. In the final chorus, the protagonist's wings spread as they surrender to the coldness of spring. They hold onto something valuable in their bag and head towards a blooming May in the distant sky, without even using an umbrella.
