Shining Black - Shining Black
SHINING BLACK
A DISTANT APRIL LOST IN TIME
UNDER A CHERRY BLOSSOM TREE
FALLING WERE PETALS, SHINING WHITE
UNDER THE SUN OF A NEW SPRING
THAT'S WHERE YOU PROMISED TO BE MINE
SMILING AT ME WITH SPARKLING EYES
WE HUGGED AND LEFT, THEN SAID GOODBYE
WE WOULD HAVE MET NEXT BLOSSOM TIME
I COUNTED THE SEASONS PASSING SLOWLY, ONE BY ONE
SOMEONE TOLD ME YOUR LIFE WAS GONE ON A COLDEST WINTER'S NIGHT
WHITE BLOOMS, FALLING DOWN EVERY YEAR
THEY FALL LIKE A CASCADE OF PALE TEARS
AFTER SO MANY YEARS STILL I
COME TO THIS TREE IN BLOSSOM TIME
SOMETIMES I SEEM TO SEE YOU HERE
LOOKING AT ME, FROM THE CLIFF
WAS IT A THOUSAND YEARS AGO?
COULD BE A BIT LESS COULD BE MORE
BUT EVERY YEAR YOU'LL FIND ME HERE
UNDER THIS OLD CHERRY TREE
I'M STILL COUNTING THE SEASONS PASSING SLOWLY, AND I SEE
WHILE PETALS ARE BLOOMING I JUST THINK OF YOU AND ME
ANOTHER YEAR IS PASSING BY
BIRDS HAVE ARRIVED, LOUD THEY SING
THEY'RE SINGING A SONG WHICH HAS NO WORDS
BROKEN MELODIES OF LOVE
I THINK OF YOU AND YOUR LAST SMILE
WISH I HAD KNOWN, TO SAY GOODBYE
MY LIFE IS DROWNED IN SHINING BLACK
AND THERE IS NO WAY OUT
WHITE BLOOMS, FALLING DOWN EVERY YEAR
THEY FALL LIKE A CASCADE OF PALE TEARS
SOME PEOPLE SAW ME YEARS AGO
THEY RAN IN FEAR, CRYING OUT
TELLING THE STORY OF A GHOST
FLOATING IN SILENCE, ALL AROUND
THE LEGEND OF A CRYING SOUL
STARTED TO SPREAD IN THE TOWN
CURIOUS COME AND TRY TO SEE
THE SPIRIT OF THE CHERRY TREE
I'M STILL COUNTING THE SEASONS PASSING SLOWLY, ONE BY ONE
AND WHILE PETALS ARE BLOOMING I JUST THINK OF YOU AND ME
ANOTHER YEAR IS PASSING BY
BIRDS HAVE ARRIVED, LOUD THEY SING
THEY'RE SINGING A SONG WHICH HAS NO WORDS
BROKEN MELODIES OF LOVE
I THINK OF YOU AND YOUR LAST SMILE
WISH I HAD KNOWN, TO SAY GOODBYE
MY LIFE IS DROWNED IN A SHINING BLACK
AND THERE IS NO WAY OUT
ANOTHER YEAR IS PASSING BY
BIRDS HAVE ARRIVED, LOUD THEY SING
THEY'RE SINGING A SONG WHICH HAS NO WORDS
BROKEN MELODIES OF LOVE
I THINK OF YOU AND YOUR LAST SMILE
WISH I HAD KNOWN, TO SAY GOODBYE
MY LIFE IS DROWNED IN A SHINING BLACK
AND THERE'S NO WAY OUT
WHITE BLOOMS, FALLING DOWN EVERY YEAR
THEY FALL LIKE A CASCADE OF PALE TEARS
