Cherry Alley

Lyrics by Shuichi Kato

In the early hours of a spring night
When the cherry blossoms fill the alley,
Memories of lost love returned.
You are no longer here.
But the queen of flowers has returned
To comfort me and my memories.

In the early hours of a spring night
When the cherry blossoms fill the alley.
I probably will never see you again.
"How have you been?"
"It's been so long since I saw you..."
Isn't this a useless thing to say?
Shouldn't I be happy just to gaze at the flowers?

Ah...In the early hours of a spring night
When the cherry blossoms fill the alley.
