about

Cherry Blossom is like a warm and blissful dream of spending time with the people you love, or the people you've only met via the internet. The quarantine period created a space for many people to meet on social media. Over a Lofi Hip Hop beat produced by Eric Godlow, Tufawon expresses his yearning daydreams about visiting beautiful places and meeting his new online supporters in person. Touring is one of his favorite parts of his musical journey, and this pleasant song takes you to a warm, peaceful, and calming place.

lyrics

Cherry Blossom

Although we’ve only met through a screen
We can still catch a vibe together to a beat maybe share the same dream, imagine cherry blossoms in the breeze yeah yeah
Although we’ve only met through a screen
We can still catch a vibe together to a beat maybe share the same dream, imagine cherry blossoms in the breeze yeah yeah

Take a deep breath with me, collectively
Even if it’s through the live stream messaging
Even if we happen to be on opposite sides of the continent
Talking through the latest technology, sounding sweet
With every single post you make there’s no mistake
Even though we make typos regularly there is no debate
Misspelling words in such a gorgeous way
And singing slightly off key with my morning face woke up this way
Early morning let the sunny rise crusty eyes
Melodies, lullabies and round dance songs that I haven’t quite memorized And lyrics that I set aside for you
I’ll send you a voice memo in a day or two
To get your insight and feedback you know I need that
So take a seat back listen to the words and relax
Should I delete that last part? Yeah I can see that
You listen with your family, later on we can screen chat

Although we’ve only met through a screen
We can still catch a vibe together to a beat maybe share the same dream, imagine cherry blossoms in the breeze yeah yeah
Although we’ve only met through a screen
We can still catch a vibe together to a beat maybe share the same dream, imagine cherry blossoms in the breeze yeah yeah

You seem pretty damn dope to me and hopefully
After quarantine I can show you beats and we can smoke some weed
On the Gulf Coast, Pacific or maybe the Atlantic
Maybe overlooking a canyon it’s gigantic
I only need a couple tokes a 1ie that’s enough for me
Sunset in the distance quite lovely so comforting
The warm air hugging me rolling hills bumble bees
Tumbleweeds I’m corny yet you still got hella love for me
Humming birds and misty air we sit and stare into this distance until it’s Crystal clear damn it’s really different here
I wanna visit your town reservation or city
The sights in the videos that you send me are super pretty
I don’t really mind crashing on your couch but if you happen
To have a guest room at your house I’m extra grateful
That you let us slide through while we’re out
On tour we could pass out on the floor or the porch if it’s warm

Although we’ve only met through a screen
We can still catch a vibe together to a beat maybe share the same dream, imagine cherry blossoms in the breeze yeah yeah
Although we’ve only met through a screen
We can still catch a vibe together to a beat maybe share the same dream, imagine cherry blossoms in the breeze yeah yeah
