Long, long ago in a land far away
A little boy and a girl were so in love
Standing 'neath the moon above
He said, me Japanese boy
I love you, I do love you
You Japanese girl, you love me
Please say you do
He carved their names
On an old cherry tree
Just like they've done
In Japan since time began
Then he gently held her hand
And said, me Japanese boy
I love you, I do love you
You Japanese girl, you love me
Please say you do
In a blue and white kimono
She became his happy bride
From that day until this very moment
She'd been standing by his side
Now they are old
And from what I am told
They're still in love
Just as much as they once were
Every night he kisses her
And says, me Japanese boy
I love you, I do love you
That is the way that it
Should be when love is true
That is the way that it
Should be for me and you
