Dreams of Japan

tonight i had a dream of japan
we were walking through the grass hand-in-hand
and i wondered
how long it'd last

we laid flat on our backs
looking at the sky

we forgot all of our troubles
and didn't wonder why

the cherry blossoms were in bloom
and they were beautiful as they fell dancing
next to you

the sun began to drift to the west
it started getting cool and we could see our breath

but suddenly the sky
filled with fireworks

we heard music from a festival
a mile away

we decided to walk there
along the bay

the colors and sounds were surreal
and i wasn't bothered
by the spring night's chill

your warm presence couldn't elude me
it seemed that everything
was meant to be

and then we kissed
