lyrics

the flowers that have bloomed beautifully will soon wither and die
just to arise in a couple of months.
the snow beautiful and white will be stepped on after being gazed in awe for a while.
things come and go, as do i.
so please don't mourn as i say goodbye.
because life is as fair as bad people are scarce
and life is as fair as much as i care.
so please don't cry...
