[Verse 1]
I don't think I have ever loved someone this much
I was too afraid of hurting you more than hurting myself
"Waiting for the last bus
How many times have I had the chance?"
"We used to have eyes for each other so much
That we didn't even feel the cold"
"What if" means nothing
[Pre-Chorus]
"Oh, how many more days do we have till graduation?
What will change from that day forward?"
"Just because I'll be going to another place
Just because I'll be having new friends"
"I'll be called an adult
While still leaving something precious behind"
[Chorus]
"The cherry blossoms carry my thoughts for you
Blown in the wind and soar in my heart"
If only it were in a little fuller bloom...
"No matter how much in love
Seasons pass and flowers flutter away so fast"
That day was in the cherry blossoms time of the year
[Verse 2]
"If I talk about my dream here and now
I might end up uttering other words..."
"Love is a selfish ball
If you throw it, you will be the only one that can relax
I can't do that"
"You told me you had made up your mind to leave for Tokyo
And wanted to give you a supportive push"
"Someday the smile I faked
Will prove it was meant for
Sweet and sour is what adolescence is about"
[Pre-Chorus]
"""Are you trying to play it cool?""
The other me is flabbergasted, but"
"when I remember you
I want to at least think our love was beautiful"
"and even if it will only be an ego trip
I want to pat myself on the back for letting you go"
[Chorus]
"Just like there is no flower that blooms forever
If we can't stay like this"
How can we flutter away beautifully?
"Soar high in the sky and flutter away
So I can remember you time after time"
Fall slowly and in a lingering way
[Bridge]
"Delicately, so that you won't notice
As I closed my eyes"
"I turned my ears to your voice
Trying to keep it in my memory"
[Pre-Chorus]
"Beyond the dark night sky
I can still see the cherry trees in full bloom"
That flower is the one I used to love
When I grow up and see my dreams and ideals as not the way I want to
I hope I can flutter away beautifully like that
[Chorus]
"The cherry blossoms carry my feelings for you
As they blow in the wind and soar in my heart"
If only it were in a little fuller bloom...
"No matter how much in love
Seasons pass and flowers flutter away so fast"
Don't cry; it's the cherry blossoms time of the year
