oriental sadness

how soon tears begin to tumble

from her laughing eyes

she's been talking to somebody

who told her lies

she'll never trust in anybody no more

who told her lies

she'll never trust in anybody no more

how can i begin to reach her

let her know the truth

what that someone has been saying

is only lies

she'll never trust in anybody no more

it's only lies

she'll never trust in anybody no more

how could she think that i

would take advantage of a girl like her

how could she think that i

would sacrifice all i have felt for her

would sacrifice all i have felt for her

like a flower she is fading

soon she'll wilt and die

if she doesn't get the sunlight

that i can give

she'll never trust in anybody no more

that i can give

she'll never trust in anybody no more
