From the west to the east I have flown to be near you I have come all this way to be close, to be here with you And now, all my heart I will lay down precisely at your feet
My beloved, oh my sweet All the gifts you have given me The patience and the peace, Cherry blossoms and the candy, I am yours, I am yours For as long, for as long as you will have me
Dearest one, I had a dream I mouthed the words, The sound came out, I spoke to you in Japanese Oh, my love I cannot see, I heard your name I know at once there was no place I’d rather be All at once there was no place that I would rather be
From the west to the east I have flown to be near you I have come all this way to be close, to be here with you And now, all my heart I will lay down precisely at your feet
My beloved, oh my sweet All the gifts you have given me The patience and the peace, Cherry blossoms and the candy, I am yours, I am yours For as long, for as long as you will have me
I packed my bag, I’m on my way I am prepared for any season I am prepared to stay Here is my heart, my beating heart Oh, how I’m longing for this love affair to start How I’m longing for this love affair to finally start
From the west to the east I have flown to be near you I have come all this way to be close, to be here with you And now, all my heart I will lay down precisely at your feet
My beloved, oh my sweet All the gifts you have given me The patience and the peace, Cherry blossoms and the candy, I am yours, I am yours For as long, for as long as you will have me
