The roads we came across
Were not the same
I remember from the time we met
Like the
Fying petals chasing the wind
Walking down the line
To the incline
The canals people made are
Still running fast
Running through any steepest
Slope, and the deepesst downhill
The only thing we need is
Nothing but romance
And will begin a story
See the Hydropower plant and
Rowing boat
And us walking down the rail
Tell me a story that
You are dreaming of
Hold my hand
Like catching petals of Sakura
In the sky
Is the history moving
In your heart
The lines we walked began to
Comes as one
One by one, slowly moving on
The time can’t find us
So let’s have a secret time
Tell me your story
And let’s make the next
The canals people made are
Still running fast
The roads have start a new line
And still going on
Nothing can stop the romance
Even the most darkest nights
Those nights will make
The brightest stars
I don’t know the person raised
Our Sakura la la
Sakura will bloom in
Your heart in side
I know all the thing are not
Forever, so just love forever
Everything is a history
Where we walk
Somebody will find us
See the Hydropower plant and
Rowing boat
And us walking down the rail
Tell me a story that
You are dreaming of
Hold my hand
Like catching petals of Sakura
In the sky
Is the history moving
In your heart In my heart
Each road of us will begin to
Come as one forever

"Walking with you - Sakura in Kyoto -" is set in the world's longest Kyoto Keage Incline, and incorporates the magnificent themes of the Meiji people's romance, civilization, and history into the modern love song.
Keage Incline is located near Nanzenji Temple and is the world's longest sloping railway site with a total length of 582 m.
