Well, well, John Lennon,
I beg your understand
I was a little girl then
behind walls of silence
In a remote town
on a soundless river,
lonely and unseeing…
ripples of the outer world.
Now I get known of your legends
and cannot accept that sad end.
Yet looking through a glass onion,
everything is still there, there, there…
your music, your love.
and Hello, Goodbye…
Hello, Goodbye…
well, well, well,
Thirty years have passed,
an enormous clam I open,
no pearl left, neither Mr. Moonlight.
so I cannot help but cry.
Through the strawberry fields,
into the other half lives
along the winding road
across the universe
love me do, love me do…
I cannot help but cry.
I see a fool on the hill
trying to make a dive…
Looking through a glass onion,
everything is still there,
your music, your love…
I cannot help but cry.
