Affairs are generally considered taboo by society, but sometimes you might fall for someone without knowing they’re married.

You probably have feelings you’re keeping tucked away in your heart, too.

This article introduces songs about “affairs.”

Some songs depict people already in an affair, while others are about accepting there’s no future and choosing to part ways.

Many of these tracks express painful emotions, so you may find one that resonates with how you feel.

A song about ending an impossible love by your own choice: Flower’s “I Just Had a Sadder Love Than Anyone Else.” It’s a supportive song for people who are thinking of ending a painful relationship.

She loves him desperately, but the woman in the song lets go so that the man can choose his other love.

She lines up excuses and soothes the man who is crying and clinging to her, but isn’t it true that she wants to cry, too? She must have been waiting for the moment she’d be loved the most… It’s heartbreaking.

The Last Rain Yasushi Nakanishi

It’s a song about an affair told from a man’s perspective.

The one featured here is Yasushi Nakanishi’s “Saigo no Ame,” released in 1992.

Even nearly 30 years after its release, it’s still a classic covered by many.

The protagonist is told goodbye by the person he loves, and his burning feelings for her really hit you in the chest.

Maybe the mistress is saying goodbye so she can return to her husband, or maybe the wife has chosen her lover and is seeking a divorce—there are many possible situations.

What’s common to all of them, though, is a passionate love so strong that he doesn’t want to let her go.
