[Verse 1]
EmShe waited under wildwood, under mAaple and pine
DWondering when her Dmcherry blossom lGove would arrAmive
EmHe once was a young man in Alove with a girl like me
DThey’d sit alone tDmogether under a Gcherry blossom tree
EmTime would turn their sunny day like maAgic into dusk
DA single moment sDmuddenly a Gyear passed by in love
[Pre-chorus]
But then he was Cgone
He was goEne
She seaArched for him then sat beneath their Dtree and sang this soGng
[Chorus]
I’ll wCait for your return my love under oEur cherry blossom tree
And Aif you cannot meet me there I’ll tDry another tGree
I’ll Csit beneath a hemlock
I’ll sEit below a pine
I’ll siAt under the peach tree where you toDld me you were mGine
I’ll waCit for you through winter when aEll the leaves have died
I’ll waAit for you to come to me with snDow tears in my eGyes Am

[Verse 2]
FAll is gone from me today and tAmill the end of time
Her hGair grew gray and blossoms layered her bFody like a vine
The bloDmssoms planted seeds and cherries fAmell across her chest
They coveEred the ground around and mFuffled her request
The CheGrry lady laden with the sadAmdest fruit to bear
The sweeDmtest juice left bAmitter proof of lEove’s uncertain cAmare
{Pre-chorus]
Cause he was goCne
He was gEone
She searAched for him then sat beneath their tDree and sang this soGng
[Chorus 2]
I’ll Cwait for your return my love under oEur cherry blossom tree
and iFf you cannot meet me there I’ll neGver never be
