Japanese Rose
Luísa Sobral
Rose had a house in a dream
Where she used to sit and have tea
Now it's not there anymore
She baked little moons with her mother
And learned how to fish with her father
But now they’re not there anymore
And she says "Why did the
Sea take them from me?
Was he angry I didn't learn how to swim?"
So she cries
Hoping that the tears in her eyes
Will take her to see them once more
She hears people say that it's over
That the waves have all gone to sleep
And they won’t come around anymore
And she says "Why did the
Sea take them from me?
Was he angry I didn't learn how to swim?"
So she cries
Hoping that the tears in her eyes
Will take her to see them once more
