On the edge of the lips, a new poem
is created by the dark eyes.
On the edge of the lips, a new poem
is created by the dark eyes.
Every day in life is a sweet day adorned with flowers.
Oh, oh, oh, on the edge of the lips...
Like jars of heavenly nectar
that she carries as she walks along,
Like jars of heavenly nectar
that she carries as she walks along,
is it a flower garden
learning how to walk?
is it a flower garden
learning how to walk?
So my heart asks me...
On the edge of the lips, a new poem
is created by the dark eyes.
Every day in life is a sweet day adorned with flowers.
Oh, oh, oh, on the edge of the lips...
While the stars stay awake
and the golden lotus waits,
While the stars stay awake
and the golden lotus waits,
spreading crimson rays
just like the golden morning light,
spreading crimson rays
just like the golden morning light,
if you bring the sunrise, my heart will bloom.
On the edge of the lips...
Female: A new poem
Male: is created
Female: by the dark eyes,
Male: In life, Female: every day
Both: are sweet days adorned with flowers.
On the edge of the lips...
