Me, Japanese Boy

Long, long ago in a land far away
A little boy and a girl were so in love
Standing 'neath the moon above

He said, me Japanese boy
I love you, I do love you
You Japanese girl, you love me
Please say you do

He carved their names
On an old cherry tree
Just like they've done
In Japan since time began
Then he gently held her hand

And said, me Japanese boy
I love you, I do love you
You Japanese girl, you love me
Please say you do

In a blue and white kimono
She became his happy bride
From that day until this very moment
She's been standing by his side

Now, they are old
And from what I am told
They're still in love
Just as much as they once were

Every night he kisses her
And says, me Japanese boy
I love you, I do love you

That is the way that it should be
When love is true
That is the way that it should be
For me and you
