Standing on a hilltop,
Singing a song from my dreams,
Looking at the vast green farmland below,
I don't wish to leave my family or home,
But, I need to follow my dream,

She calls me every day,


She sends me her beauty every morning;
Cherry blossoms and roses, in the spring,
Sounds of ocean waves in the summer,
Even the cellphone sound of the cicadas,
Calling to say hello let's party while we can,


She sends me her family photos, of beautiful,

Multi-colored blankets, of Autumn leaves,
Winter pictures of snow covered mountains,

She sings beautiful old songs to me,
Relaxing and magical songs,
Played with only two strings and a bow,

Yet,
She cries in pain,
Her family separated for so very long,

Standing on a mountaintop,
Looking at the Miracle below,
Singing a song from my dreams,


“Arirang, Arirang, Arariyo...”

It seems my whole life,
I've been waiting for,
For a rose to bloom,

Lonely seasons have come and gone,
My family and friends have moved on,

I'm waiting for a rose to bloom,
The years have been cold without seeing,
A bright red rose blossom,

Until!

I wake up on a bright June morning,
I look through my window and,
See a bright red rose sent from heaven,

It seems you were part of my heart,
You were part of my life,
You were always here,

I always looked,
At the wrong time of year.

When I'm lonely at Midnight, I can't sleep,

I'm afraid to dream,

I hear the rain falling, thunder in the distance,
Wind blowing through trees,
A single streetlight twinkles through the window,

I think of you, Why you left me with this gift of pain?

I've always known you were nothing but a dream,
That after it ends leaves nothing behind but loneliness and pain,

I want to forget you,
But, this pain is driving me insane,

I want to forget...

This pain from living in a dream.

Loving you, is as unreachable, as traveling,

Back to the past one hundred years,

Standing here alone,
I see a painting of a glamorous,
Woman, in a white dress,

Singing on a brightly lit stage, under a,
Rainstorm of white and red,
Roses,

I am wondering what you were thinking,

That day?

That day, one hundred years in the past,
The world fell in love with a beautiful Angel

And her voice?

If your star should ever fall,
I'll be there for you, to catch your tears,
And chase away your fears,

If your star should ever fall,
I'll be there to lift you up;
With the magic of a wink and a smile,

If your star should ever fall,
I'll be there standing by your side,
Holding on to you so tight.

Whenever you need me for anything, tell me where and when,
I'll be there,

If you need me for anything,
Tell me what you want,

I will do whatever it takes,
To light your star on fire and place it back in the sky,
For all to see.

You have what I want;
You live across an ocean,

Why am I standing alone in this place?
When I could have what I want;

I want to live,
I want to love,
I want to be looking at you,
With no space between us,

I want to be part of your world,

But you are only a dream
Of what I want,
Sent thousands of miles far from the East.

Something I want, but will never have.
