[Intro] [Verse 1] There's a gap up in the sky, where the light comes shining through, on the rain-soaked stone below, blue comes shimmering through. Deep inside my pocket now, your warmth still remains, just a small and fleeting moment, lingers on here with me [Pre-Chorus 1] All alone, I looked up high into spring, a frame that dimly holds a younger shadow, and carries me back to the days long gone by [Chorus 1] Cherry petals sway and rise, and my own feet grow still, layers of scenery blend, and slip past my sleeve The pale colors of that day, blur and gently wash away, a smile just starts to come undone, and drifts away with the wind [Interlude] [Verse 2] Up the hill at evening's fall, our footsteps hurry along, as if we might just make it there, reaching for my hand You held a branch so full and heavy with blossoms, and your smile just overflowed, in the fading evening light, colors gently intertwine [Pre-Chorus 2] A pale rose blush that glows warm in the evening sun, brushes softly past my cheek, so smoothly continuing on from that day [Chorus 2] Petals reach their fullest bloom, and my heart begins to soar, the one who should be here beside me, I'm searching for your image Though I cannot touch you now, you are here with me, only now, a memory, you are still in bloom [Interlude] [Bridge] Far beyond the reach of wind, and the seasons flow along, it keeps on slipping through my palm, fading fast away, a single, precious moment, so carefully tucked away... [Final Chorus] Cherry petals sway and turn, rising to the sky, the memory of that bright day, carried lightly on the wind, hoping that you'll never fade away, while I whisper this prayer, at the tip of the branch, a light, with a faint and gentle glow Cherry petals sway and rise, and my own feet grow still, layers of scenery blend, and slip past my sleeve The pale colors of that day, blur and gently wash away, a smile just starts to come undone, and drifts away with the wind [Outro]
