Christmas In Kyoto

(album: Watching The Snow - 2003)

I can't forget the time
We spent Christmas in Kyoto
At that small hotel
Overlooking the pagoda
With a thousand statues standing at attention and that one the same
like in one of those films by what's his name?
Ah, Akira Kurosawa

Who could forget the time
We spent Christmas in Kyoto
On a [?] so fine in a circle of your kimono
Though we have no tree
I feel certain you remember
How your touch sublime
And you holiday spirit let up mine

That Christmas in Kyoto
That Christmas in Kyoto
That perfect Christmas in Kyoto with you

Celebrating Christmas in Kyoto
All [?] a photo only you and me
Has convinced me it is worth believing
In giving and receiving unreservedly

And last for you are not least
The hotel provided sake and a Christmas feast kappa-maki with wasabi
Through the window
We notice snowflakes started falling
They were right up cute
Systematically falling for me and you
That Christmas in Kyoto
That Christmas in Kyoto
That perfect Christmas in Kyoto with you
That Christmas in Kyoto
That Christmas in Kyoto
That perfect Christmas in Kyoto with you
It's holly and likely I'll soon forget
That Christmas in Kyoto
That Christmas in Kyoto
Up and down chimney
That perfect Christmas in Kyoto with you
The Santa and you
That Christmas in Kyoto with you
