#11 in Mashiko
Today we're in Mashiko. Chris talks about his friend and we play a song he wrote about him. Here are the lyrics (song words) if you'd like to sing along!
Seishun Nante la, la, la
I was 29 when I came to Japan Not so young, but still I had some time on my hands Went down to Mashiko, to throw a pot with Michiyo And that's where I saw, Toshio
(Chorus) Seishun nante la, la, la-la-la, la Seishun nante la, la, la-la-la
What a time that was, everything fresh and new, We were full of hope and promise too And dreamed about the future and things we'd like to do All the time in the world to make our dreams come true
(Chorus)
I really liked all the things he used to say He really liked to drink the day away Sometimes he staggered, sometimes he fell down Sometimes he'd say something so profound
(Chorus)
"If you cannot see the beauty in your own art Then your mind is too complicated" That's the kind if shit that he used to say Before the winds of time came and swept him away
Seishun nante la, la, la-la-la, la And, when he went he took my youth away Seishun nante la, la, la-la-la, la And, when he went he took my youth away
Either you cry over your friends or they cry over you Either way we've got lots of crying do Life is cruel, when she is kind What she gives in good, she steals away in time
(Chorus)
(Chorus) Seishun nante la, la, la-la-la, la Seishun nante la, la, la-la-la
What a time that was, everything fresh and new, We were full of hope and promise too And dreamed about the future and things we'd like to do All the time in the world to make our dreams come true
(Chorus)
I really liked all the things he used to say He really liked to drink the day away Sometimes he staggered, sometimes he fell down Sometimes he'd say something so profound
(Chorus)
"If you cannot see the beauty in your own art Then your mind is too complicated" That's the kind if shit that he used to say Before the winds of time came and swept him away
Seishun nante la, la, la-la-la, la And, when he went he took my youth away Seishun nante la, la, la-la-la, la And, when he went he took my youth away
Either you cry over your friends or they cry over you Either way we've got lots of crying do Life is cruel, when she is kind What she gives in good, she steals away in time
(Chorus)
