A Funny Love Song
Compiled from lyrics of love songs translated
into English by ESL students.

From morning’s glaring sun to the smelly afternoon,



You are always inside my lonely brain.



I hope we meet in an accident very soon.



My heart will not stop hemorrhaging for you.



The night you squeezed me I visited heaven.



Your love flies me swiftly into a mountain.


You make my heart sour.

One day, you will startle yourself and say “oh no!
Why did I walk the opposite direction of him?



Like the fishes need the ocean beach, I need you.



When you kiss me, you make my blood evaporate.



Your lovely, unwrinkly skin requests my attention

You will always be my lemon moon ray lover.
