As you were leaving, you said to me "You always want far too much if even for a moment, I look away from you" it’s like my mind ignites into flames." I hold back the tears about to flow Struggling to suppress the words I longed to share With just a single "Yes, I’m sorry" I closed the chapter on the days we spent together Sweet, oh sweet, the sweet chestnut red bean jelly The one delight I’ve always longed to savor. That sweet, sweet chestnut red bean jelly As you were leaving, you said to me "You always want far too much" No what I’ve always wanted was one thing Just one thing sweet chestnut red bean jelly Sweet, oh sweet, the sweet chestnut red bean jelly The one delight I’ve always longed to savor. That sweet, sweet chestnut red bean jelly So much food the table might collapse Knocking one of us down You never knew who I really was As you were leaving you turned around and said to me "You always want far too much" No what I’ve always wanted was one thing Just one thing sweet chestnut red bean jelly Lyrics translated by James An
