Aisumasen

Yoko Ono · Other Songs - Yoko Ono

When I'm down, really yin,

And I don't know what I'm doing,

Aisumasen,

Aisumasen, yoko.

All I had to do was call your name,

All I had to do was call your name.



And when I hurt you and cause you pain,

Darlin', I promise, I won't do it again.

Aisumasen,

Aisumasen, yoko.

It's hard enough I know to feel your own pain,

It's hard enough I know to feel, feel your own pain.



All that I know is just what you tell me,

All that I know is just what you show me.



And when I'm down, really sanpaku,

And I don't know what to do,

Aisumasen,

Aisumasen, yoko san.

All I had to was call your name,

Yes, all I had to do was call your name.
