I don't want to be shy 
Can't stand it anymore 
I just want to say 'Hi' 
To the one I love 
Cherry blossom girl 

I feel sick all day long 
From not being with you 
I just want to go out 
Ever night for a while 
Cherry blossom girl 

Tell me why can't it be true 

I never talk to you 
People say that I should 
I can pray everyday 
For the moment to come 
Cherry blossom girl 

I just want to be sure 
When I will come to you 
When the time will be gone 
You will be by my side 
Cherry Blossom Girl 

Tell me why can't it be true 

I'll never love again 
Can I say that to you 
Will you run away 
If I try to be true 
Cherry blossom girl 

Cherry blossom girl 
I'll always be there for you 
That means no time to waste 
Whenever there's a chance 
Cherry blossom girl 

Tell me why can't it be true
