In the Eastern Sea

This song was written when I was 15. That time I liked a lot of things connected with Japan. Certainly, I was inspired by this mysterious country. Music: ON/OFF - Eien no Setsuna.

I

You're flourishing, developing 
In all spheres of our life.
You can stay the same and be changeable
'Cause you're Japan, you are so fine.

You can't imagine how I want to fly 
Above the sea, under your eastern sky!
Under your eastern sky...

Chorus:

Yes, I'm here but my soul is where
These islands make me feel
That though I'm here, my heart is there -
In the eastern sea.
In the eastern sea!

II

No doubt that you are very wise.
Besides, you're wonderful and nice.
Let us just see your lovely parks
At sakura's blooming times.

You can't imagine how I want to fly 
Above the sea, under your eastern sky!
Under your eastern sky...

Chorus.

Music.

Chorus.
