[Verse 1]
We sat beneath a tree who wept in shades of pink
And Spring devolved her speech, the blossoms peaking
With borrowed comfort sipped from bottles made of glass
Ah, Sakura, mono no aware
[Chorus]
O, fairweather friend
Bending away for the touch of light
O, fair thee well, friend
All that I ask is you say goodbye
[Verse 2]
Along a failing climb, we danced without our wits
Suspended curly wisps – like clouds of cirrus
Hakanai koi, amai Sakura
Ah, Sakura, mono no aware
[Chorus]
O, fairweather friend
Bending away for the touch of light
O, fair thee well, friend
All that I ask is you say goodbye
[Verse 3]
Below the waning moon, we chilled our sticky cheeks
And Neptune played a song – as dreams were changing
The moments that will last were never made of tact
Ah, Sakura, mono no aware
