A love with you from nine steps apartSHIROSE from WHITE JAM

“A Love Nine Years Apart” is a song whose lyrics are taken directly from a message SHIROSE sent to his partner.
It’s a heartbreak song: the other person already has a new lover, yet deep down he still has feelings…
It portrays that kind of unrequited love.
I think this situation is common in relationships, but it’s truly painful, isn’t it? I hope they can find the strength to move on toward their next love.

While SHOW-YA is known for powerful female vocals and virtuosic playing, this track stands out for its emotional content rooted in heartbreak and parting.
It vividly captures the uniquely sentimental atmosphere of the Christmas season, and when paired with its rock sound, the song’s depth and weight as a ballad truly shine.
