Memories

With You


Whenever I looked up at the sky
It always gave me a weird feeling
And wondered why I loved it so much

Closing my eyes I see the fondly remembered memories
Gently smiling grandpa, tiny house, friendly neighbors
Remembering how we used to laugh together of what we did
Under the clear blue sky

In the spring, the soft pink cherry blossoms
Protected us as we stepped into the school ground
Full of Fear
Under the clear blue sky

In the summer we wore short pants and tank tops
Went outside and got so many mosquito bites
Ate tons of watermelons, ate so many ice creams
We caught our first firefly
Under the clear blue sky

In the fall we collected all kinds of leaves
Just for fun
And screamed at the caterpillars that fell from the trees
Under the clear blue sky

In the winter we wore layers of clothes
That we looked so fat we couldn't move
We played with the freezing snow till out hands got red
Under the clear blue sky

That had changed
When I had gone out of the country
But they still had the same clear blue sky
Just like the sky above what we always did
