[Verse]
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
[Refrain]
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
[Chorus]
As you were lеaving, you said to me
"You always want far too much"
No, what I’ve always wanted was onе thing
Just one thing, sweet chestnut red bean jelly
[Interlude]
[Refrain]
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
[Bridge]
So much food the table might collapse
Knocking one of us down
You never knew who I really was
[Chorus]
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
