English Under the spring-coloured sky You start walking alone Down the long road you painted Like a dream you had one day As you put your uniform and the days gone by Into your memories for today And are reborn I’m watching your back The tear that landed on my cheek When you looked back uncertainly And forced a smile Was a period To help me grow up I’ll be an eternal cherry tree Yes, I’ll never move from here If your heart loses its way I’ll be standing here, showing you where love is You’ve just taken The first step Towards the future you talked about with your classmates In the sun in the classroom You mustn’t feel nostalgic For the season when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom You’ll get through the winter with its chill wind that makes you shiver And the flowers will bloom Come back alone sometimes To the empty schoolyard You’ll be able to meet The shining person you were The day you graduated I’ll be an eternal cherry tree And mark your starting point Even when all my flowers have fallen My branches will be outstretched, waiting for you Everybody always forgets somewhere That resolve like pressed flowers in their heart In the season when the cherry blossoms bloom Remember Me... This one tree... I’ll be an eternal cherry tree Yes, I’ll never move from here If your heart loses its way I’ll be standing here, showing you where love is
