Think it over! (Think it over!)
Think it over! (Think it over!)
What it means to keep me waiting —
think it over!
"I'm coming right now," you said (you said!)
While I waited, the moon came up (moon came up!)
Fixed my bangs, kept waiting here —
spare a thought for me! (Think it over!)
"Coming right away," you said — and so, through the long-month night
I waited till the daybreak moon came out
You're the one who said (who said it!)
you'd come right away (right away!)
Autumn nights are long, you know
Think it over! (Think it over!)
Tired of waiting (so tired!) — the moon's at the top (at the top!)
I counted three good reasons to be angry
But the moon was so beautiful I stared
and it stole my anger clean away
"Coming right away," you said — and so, through the long-month night
I waited till the daybreak moon came out
Even that moon (that moon!)
knows it's true (knows it's true!)
"Be right there" can't be trusted
Think it over! (Think it over!)
"Coming right away," you said — and so
through the long month of autumn
the moon of daybreak
I ended up awaiting
The moon is watching! (The moon is watching!)
The moon is watching! (The moon is watching!)
The same night, for a thousand years
the moon's been watching! (watching!)
"Coming right away," you said — and so, through the long-month night
I waited till the daybreak moon came out
Waiting isn't losing (isn't losing!)
It's proof of love (it's proof!)
The night I saw this moon is mine
Think it over! (Think it over!)
Have you ever seen the moon at dawn? (Have you?)
Only those who waited get to see it! (get to see!)
Next time we meet, I'll brag about it:
"Thanks to you, it was beautiful"
Think it over! (Think it over!) Think it over! (Think it over!)
Think it over!! (Think it over!!)
The moon of daybreak… I awaited it after all
(Think it over!)
