Lately he's been thinking
He's thinking of Japan
And every time he hears
The word he feels like crying
Oh he's never even been there
But he's been close to you
Close enough to feel somehow
Everything you're feeling now
Thinking of Japan thinking of Japan
Thinking of Japan
Yet his memory of you
Your dance and shape, the grace of view
Against the backdrop of the bed
The blue heels slipping it was just a photo
A simple photo of Kyoto
Thoughts you'd like to know
Thinking of Japan thinking of Japan
Thinking of Japan thinking of Japan
I don't know how to pass the time
I don't know how to pass the time
I don't know, I don't know
(Thinking, thinking of Japan)
I don't know how to pass the time
(Thinking, thinking of Japan)
I don't know, I don't know
(Thinking, thinking of Japan) i don't know
Lately I've been dreaming dreaming of Japan
And every time I hear
The word I feel like sighing
