She cried

The tears that fell were from Asian ways

She cried

The tears that fell were from Asian ways



She promised to a stranger

Arranger kisses

She, torn between her heart

And the others' wishes

Try to please them

Try to reason



She cried

The tears that fell were from Asian ways

She cried

The tears that fell were from Asian ways



She tries to understand

What her father preaches

She wants to live the life

That her new world teaches

Try to tell them

What she felt then



She cried

The tears that fell were from Asian ways

She cried

The tears that fell were from Asian ways



Try to tell them what she felt then



She cried

The tears that fell were from Asian ways

She cried

The tears that fell were from Asian ways

She cried

The tears that fell were from Asian ways

She cried

The tears that fell were from Asian ways



She cried

The tears that fell were from Asian ways

She cried

The tears that fell were from Asian ways
