Lyrics
Seaside Haiku
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Somewhere beyond
These cold winds from Japan
Vermillion suns
Churn the black and gold sand
I drop my glove
And it rolls in the waves
I'll give a lot
But not too much away
Ah, ah, ah, ah
In a yellow coat
She scoops up the sky
Five seagulls laugh
At her flying green kite
She's been burned, too
So she understands
She'll give a lot
But not all that she can
Ah, ah, ah, ah
I thought loneliness my lot, it's true
I walk the beach alone, I'm not blue
Blue is the sky and the fiery flame
I've learned from pain
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Give but don't give too much
Of yourself away
Give but don't give too much
Give but don't give too much
Of yourself away
Give but don't give too much
Give but don't give too much
Of yourself away
Give but don't give too much
Give but don't give too much
Of yourself away
Give but don't give too much
Give but don't give too much
Of yourself away
Give but don't give too much
Give but don't give too much
Of yourself away
Give but don't give too much
