Falling gently, one by one, The cherry blossoms fall The night sky, chilled by frigid drifting snow, Grows darker by the hour as the snow starts to glow One petal here, some scatter there, There's soft pink petals swirling everywhere. If only those petals would last forever It'd be a memory I couldn't sever Thousands of cherry blossoms drifting away Bringing light to those who wish to see another day
