Sakura

Very very veeery quick sketch. I wanted to practice Backgrounds and had this picture in my mind since I passed by Bonn Central Station last weekend.
I was listening to a song of Ikimono Gakari. It’s called “Sakura” and was just exactly about what I felt as I went trough the Station and passed by a lot of people.
I just love this song, even if it makes me sad everytime I’m listening to it ^^ Part of the Lyrics:


The cherry blossoms fell, fluttering down
Embracing every bit of my fluttering love
Even now, I’m dreaming the dream I prayed for with you that spring

The cherry blossoms scatter
From the train I could see
The traces of one day
The big bridge we crossed together
Graduation time came
And you left town
On the colourful riverbank, I search for that day

We went our separate ways
And brought our spring to an end
My future is in full bloom
But it fills me with panic
This year, once again, the cherry blossoms are reflected
In the window of the Odakyuu train
In my heart
I hear your voice

The start of my letter to you
Says “I’m doing OK”
You’ll see through that little lie, won’t you?
Even the town going past
Is taking in the spring
The flowers are opening their buds again this year
I’ll get through these days without you
And I, too, will grow up
Will I forget everything?
“I really loved you”

I hold out my hands to the cherry blossoms
Now my love is wrapped in the spring
The cherry blossoms fell, fluttering down
Embracing every bit of my fluttering love
Even now, the strong words you gave me
Remain in my heart; the cherry blossoms dance


and there you can see a live version of it, it’s such a beautiful song *w*
