Annotation by Justin A. Brummer
Lyrics
English: "There's a leafless tree in Asia / Under the sun there's a homeless man / There's a forest fire in the valley / Where the story all began / What will be our last thought? / Do you think it's coming soon? / Will it be a comfort / Or the pain of a burning wound? / All we are trying to say / Is we are all we've got / You and me just cannot fail / If we never, never stop"
