One Million Flowers

Morning slacker
You’ve got to give it to me
I always make it up
Shaking with laughter
We find a place to hang clothes clean and away
From condensation of the gathering day
Catch everyone in a hurry
Sharing our days in the sun
Blossoms all starting to fall

One million flowers
Dash for the natural light
Another one million flowers
Spill to the river

Faded lacquer
Flashes in the dark
You read my mind
But never imprison me there
Lanterns shiver 

In a still moment after the rush hour
‘Let’s play’ your motto on the Yamanote Line
Catch everyone in a hurry
Sharing our days in the sun
Blossoms all starting to fall

One million flowers
Dash for the natural light
Another one million flowers
Spill to the river
