Sukiyaki (Ue o Muite Arukou) by Kyu Sakamoto

1963 hit that has nothing to do with it's title




Ue wo muite arukou
Namida ga koborenai youni
Omoidasu haru no hi
Hitoribocchi no yoru

Ue wo muite arukou
Nijinda hoshi wo kazoete
Omoidasu natsu no hi
Hitoribocchi no yoru

Shiawase wa kumo no ue ni
Shiawase wa sora no ue ni
Ue wo muite arukou
Namida ga koborenai youni
Naki nagara aruku
Hitoribocchi no yoru

Omoidasu aki no hi
Hitoribocchi no yoru
Kanashimi wa hoshi no kage ni
Kanashimi wa tsuki no kage ni

Ue wo muite arukou
Namida ga koborenai youni
Naki nagara aruku
Hitoribocchi no yoru
Hitoribocchi no yoru

Looking up while walking
So the tears won't fall
Remebering those spring days
All alone at night

Looking up while walking
And counting the scattered stars
Remembering those summer days
All alone at night

Happiness lies above the clouds
Happiness lies above the sky
Looking up while walking
So the tears won't fall
Keep walking on while crying
It's a lonely night

Remembering those autumn days
It's a lonely night
Sadness is in the shadow of the stars
Sadness is in the shadow of the moon

Looking up while walking
So the tears won't fall
Keep walking on while crying
It's a lonely night
It's a lonely night
