When the sun begins rising in the west
We'll continue this somber song of mine
And saying our goodbyes
Our dreams turned out to be nothing in the end
Chasing after the light within in our eyes
On the warm winds we would ride

Dancing barefoot, taking in the sunshine
The summer in Uji, that happened to change our lives
In the moonlight, singing our favorite lullabies
Going home in spring, counting down til I see you again

In the back of my mind
My memories still resides
In those fun summer days
(It was warm)

Holding hands with you down
That path by my house
As we picked colorful flowers
(And we sang)

The clouds always swayed
On nights when you were away
I always wanted to show it to you
But I awaken to the fact
That you're never coming back
So my search for you begins

My feet move on their own, moving towards your presence
How could you desert me, I can't live without my friend

When the sun begins rising in the west
We'll continue this somber song of mine
And saying our goodbyes
Our dreams turned out to be nothing in the end
Chasing after the light within in our eyes
On the warm winds we would ride

Dancing barefoot, taking in the sunshine
The summer in Uji, that happened to change our lives
In the moonlight, singing our favorite lullabies
Going home in spring, counting down til I see you again

Middle of the night - maybe 7
Picking flowers that we loved in the summer
Do you even want to see me?
Do you want to come back to me?
Are my feelings not reaching thee?
Are you ignoring these
Tears that I have shed for you?

In a second, a flash
Something blinded my sight
Like a sign from above
Pushing me back
It told me to move on
You'll come back in time
The tears that I had shed
Would be rewarded in the end

In a flash, a blast
Filling the cracks
Like a sign from above
Pushing me back
It told me to move on
You'll come back in time
The tears that I had shed
Would be rewarded in the end

Dancing barefoot, taking in the sunshine
The summer in Uji, that happened to change our lives
In the moonlight, singing our favorite lullabies
Going home in spring, counting down til I see you again

Dancing barefoot, doing a perfect Samba
The summer in Uji, that happened to change our lives
In the moonlight, singing our favorite lullabies
Going home in spring, counting down til I see you again

When the sun begins rising in the west
We'll continue this somber song of mine
And saying our goodbyes
Our dreams turned out to be nothing in the end
Chasing after the light within in our eyes
On the warm winds we would ride
