Song lyrics

さくら さくら (Sakura sakura)

弥生の空は (Yayoi no sora wa)

見渡すかぎり (miwatasu kagiri)


さくら さくら (Sakura sakura)

弥生の空は (Yayoi no sora wa)

見渡すかぎり (miwatasu kagiri)


In a time, in a place

In a world, they forgot

Lives the heart of me

A part that just won't die

Just a boy, not a man

Sent to war in a land

They said we'd fight for their freedom

But I felt like a hired hand


Sometimes I have to find my way

Sometimes I have to get away


Take me back to Tokyo Road

Take me back to Tokyo Road


Working hard for a pass

Got the night, make it last

It was a time to remember

All my life I would never forget

In a bar, breathing smoke

Snorting whiskey, drinking coke

It was a time when no one would die

And there wasn't a care


Sometimes I wish it was that way

'Cause sometimes I have to get away


Take me back to Tokyo Road

Take me back to Tokyo Road

Take me back to Tokyo Road

Take me back to Tokyo Road


This guy turns me around and he's pointing up the stairs

I found myself in her doorway but there wasn't anybody there

She walked in the room with nothing on but a red light

And with a smile she got so close to me

She whispered something 'bout midnight


I didn't understand a word she said

But it felt so good

She knew that I didn't have any money

But baby I knew she would...


Take me back to Tokyo Road

Take me back to Tokyo Road
