[Verse]
Under the cherry trees I wait
A shadow dances soft and late
The wind it hums a lover’s tune
Under the whispers of the moon
[Chorus]
Oh
The moon she sighs
She sighs tonight
A golden bell
A silver light
Oh
The stars they sing
They sing so clear
Do you hear
Do you hear
My dear?
[Verse 2]
A lantern floats on water's skin
Ripples calling where dreams begin
The taiko beats
My heart replies
A rhythm shared with ancient skies
[Prechorus]
Shakuhachi calls
Haunting
Wild
Koto strings weep
Soft and mild
[Chorus]
Oh
The moon she sighs
She sighs tonight
A golden bell
A silver light
Oh
The stars they sing
They sing so clear
Do you hear
Do you hear
My dear?
[Bridge]
Clappers strike and time stands still
Echoes rolling from the hill
Kokyu wails
The biwa speaks
Secrets of the mountain peaks |
