Singer-songwriter Mariya Takeuchi is from Izumo City in Shimane Prefecture.

Come back—my time

Crafted by the star-studded duo of lyricist Kazumi Yasui and composer Kazuhiko Kato, this song marks Mariya Takeuchi’s memorable debut single.

Long beloved as the theme for an Isetan commercial, its urban, stylish sound feels like the dawn of city pop.

Delivered in Takeuchi’s youthful, translucent voice, the message of “Come back—this is my time” gently resonates with those of us who tend to push ourselves too hard.

When we’re busy living each day to the fullest, it’s easy to forget to make time for ourselves—but listening to this track might just lift your spirits and make you think, “That’s right, I’m going to reclaim my time.”

Mariya Takeuchi – A Love Without Tomorrow (Official Music Video)

A ballad for mature adults, written and composed by Mariya Takeuchi herself.

Even knowing they can’t promise a future, they’re drawn to each other.

The helplessness and inner conflict of such an impossible love are depicted with aching realism.

Even when you know there’s no tomorrow for the one you love, you still can’t cut off your feelings—that’s the inescapable nature of romance.

Released in March 2007, the song was chosen as the theme for the TV series “Tuesday Drama Gold.” The intricate human relationships of the suspense drama align beautifully with the song’s heartrending world.

On nights when your heart aches from a love with nowhere to go, why not let this song gently keep you company?
