It's all because of you, I'm feeling sad and blue You went away, now my life is just a rainy day And I love you so, how much you'll never know You've gone away and left me lonely
Untouchable memories, Seem to keep haunting me Another love so true That once turned all my gray skies blue But you disappeared Now my eyes are filled with tears And I'm wishing you were here with me
Soft with love are my thoughts of you Now that you're gone I just don't know what to do
If only you were here You'd wash away my tears The sun would shine once again You'd be mine all mine But in reality, you and I will never be 'Cause you took your love away from me
Girl, I don't know what I did To make you leave me But what I do know Is that since you've been gone There's such an emptiness inside I'm wishing you'd come back to me
If only you were here You'd wash away my tears The sun would shine once again You'd be mine all mine But in reality, you and I will never be 'Cause you took your love away from me
Bit of a problem with yr semantics .. Kyu Sakamoto died in the August 12, 1985 crash of JAL Flight 123, a Boeing 747 on a scheduled passenger flight from Tokyo to Osaka, that suffered structural damage - the pilot had reported a problem with a rear door - and decompression shortly after take off, and which remains the deadliest single aircraft accident in aviation history. Link.
Prior to that accident the aircraft was involved in a tail strike that damaged the aft bulkhead. Inadequate repairs were done and it was certified safe to fly when in fact it wasn’t. The bulkhead failed on that flight.
I look up when I walk so the tears won't fall Remembering those happy spring days But tonight I'm all alone
I look up when I walk, counting the stars with tearful eyes Remembering those happy summer days But tonight I'm all alone
Happiness lies beyond the clouds Happiness lies above the sky
I look up when I walk so the tears won't fall Though my heart is filled with sorrow For tonight I'm all alone. Remembering those happy autumn days But tonight I'm all alone
Sadness hides in the shadow of the stars Sadness lurks in the shadow of the moon
I look up when I walk so the tears won't fall Though my heart is filled with sorrow For tonight I'm all alone.
The actual title of this song was "Ue O Muite Arukou", which means "I Look Up When I Walk." This title was too difficult for English-speaking people to pronounce, so when the song was promoted in the USA, the title was arbitrarily changed to "Sukiyaki", a Japanese word easy to pronounce and familiar to most Americans. The song became very popular in the USA and was played extensively on radio stations when it was first introduced in 1963. Stelzriede.com.
Great post, thank you. I'm old and certainly heard it as a kid in the 60s. I woke up a few months ago with that melody stuck in my head, but I had no idea what it was. Now I know.

Remembering those happy spring days
But tonight I'm all alone
I look up when I walk, counting the stars with tearful eyes
Remembering those happy summer days
But tonight I'm all alone
Happiness lies beyond the clouds
Happiness lies above the sky
I look up when I walk so the tears won't fall
Though my heart is filled with sorrow
For tonight I'm all alone.
Remembering those happy autumn days
But tonight I'm all alone
Sadness hides in the shadow of the stars
Sadness lurks in the shadow of the moon
I look up when I walk so the tears won't fall
Though my heart is filled with sorrow
For tonight I'm all alone.
