WHAT I SAW-Maia Hirasawa

He picked me up in his blue old Volvo

With a calm face and his girlfriend on his left side

She went back to her own apartment

Wasn't she afraid like I was

We watched the news on your black and white TV

I learnt some new words, like genpatsu and fire

I felt safer than I did in twenty hours

While we saw the, we saw the whole world explode

And you were always on my mind

You were always on my mind

When the world explode

I tried to call once in an hour

While I saw the lights moving side to side

I didn't have any clean clothes to put on

So I went through the park and home

I didn't speak about my friends at all

I didn't know if you were alive at all

There was no gas left in his blue old car

And it felt like I was running from a war

When the whole world explode

And you were always in my mind

When the world explode

Standing on the airport finally

Leaving everything that has been me

The ground was suddenly, our biggest enemy

Oh our country

The ground was suddenly, our biggest enemy

I was too afraid to see
