. The first Pink light Of dawn Has come To the tops Of the night dark Trees Out the front gate Patrons are leaving Some covered to Protect their identities And the girls are finally Getting an opportunity To sleep It is fun To spend The weekend Evening hours Enjoying Prawns wine And other things While one is still In his summer years Somewhere In a room On a nearby Balconied Second floor Someone is softly Playing a tune About the moon Cherry blossoms The passage of time And the crying Of a deer . |

John, You have painted a vivid picture, "Somewhere In a room On a nearby Balconied Second floor Someone is softly Playing a tune About the moon Cherry blossoms The passage of time And the crying Of a deer" I wish to know the lyrics to the song. Please share them if you can, very intriguing. WT |
