I look at you,
Through the veil of time,

Looking for you too,
Free my Lost Soul,

Your face is hidden now,
In lost memories,
And in dreams.

Love is only possible,
With a life with you;
In a time long ago,
In a distant place, half a world away.

You have taken hold of my heart,
I watch you playing, under the cherry blossom trees,
I look at you blooming into a beautiful woman,

A princess becoming a queen,
In the bright pink Seoul sunlight.


Loving you my dream is an impossible thing,
I will never embrace you,
My lonely eyes,
Only see you at midnight.

A dream that leads only to heartbreak,

At dawn every day.

Mustard & Mayonnaise sandwiches
Because nobody grocery shops in this place
After some time I learned to adapt
So it just became the new way

Oversleeping through breakfast
Lunch is noon and night
Mustard & Mayonnaise sandwiches
Because they satisfy my appetite

I begged my dad for turkey and Swiss
But he always managed to forget
And when friends asked "what do you got to eat"?
I'd say Mustard & Mayonnaise sandwiches

It's the little things we remember when we grow up
The dullest things can be so significant
They're a symbol of my childhood,
Those Mustard & Mayonnaise sandwiches
