A gem of a love song that beautifully portrays both the joy and the anxiety of meeting someone special and loving each other.

Even when wrapped in unease and loneliness, the pure feeling that you can overcome it by trusting and supporting one another resonates deeply.

Woven from berry meet’s warm vocals and a pop melody, this piece was created for a split tour with bands of the same generation and released as a recording in May 2024.

It’s a soothing work that stands with those whose feelings lead them to see no one but the person right in front of them as their love deepens, loving them almost blindly.

Released as a digital-only single in February 2023, it was also included on the album “II,” which came out in March of the same year.

Judging by the title alone, you might assume this is a breakup song, but the lyrics actually feature two different “days we stopped being lovers.” The first is the day they broke up, which is what most people would imagine.

The couple in the song does part ways once.

However, they can’t forget each other, and when they meet again, they get back together.

Determined not to be alone this time, a proposal follows, and they become husband and wife—this is the second “day they stopped being lovers.” It’s a truly lovely story, and I imagine many readers were deeply moved by the lyrics.
