Lyrics
Lately he's been thinkinâ
Been thinkin' of Japan
And every time he hears
The word he feels like cryin'
Oh, heâs never even been there
But he's been close to you
Close enough to feel somehow
Everything you're feelin' now
Thinkin' of Japan
Thinkin' of Japan
Thinkin' of Japan
The earliest memory of you
Your dancin' shape that graced the view
Against the backdrop of the bay
The blue hills slippinâ through their shades
It was just a photo (It was just a photo)
A simple photo of Kyoto
I might go alone
Thought youâd like to know
Thinkin' of Japan
Thinkinâ of Japan
Thinkin' of Japan
Thinkin' of Japan
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
I don't know how to pass the time
I donât know how to pass the time
I don't know (Thinkin', thinkin')
I don't know (Of Japan)
I don't know (Thinkin', thinkin')
How to pass the time (Of Japan)
I don't know (Thinkin', thinkin')
I don't know (Of Japan)
I don't know
Lately I've been dreamin'
Dreamin' of Japan
And every time I hear
The word I feel like sighin'
Been thinkin' of Japan
And every time he hears
The word he feels like cryin'
Oh, heâs never even been there
But he's been close to you
Close enough to feel somehow
Everything you're feelin' now
Thinkin' of Japan
Thinkin' of Japan
Thinkin' of Japan
The earliest memory of you
Your dancin' shape that graced the view
Against the backdrop of the bay
The blue hills slippinâ through their shades
It was just a photo (It was just a photo)
A simple photo of Kyoto
I might go alone
Thought youâd like to know
Thinkin' of Japan
Thinkinâ of Japan
Thinkin' of Japan
Thinkin' of Japan
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
I don't know how to pass the time
I donât know how to pass the time
I don't know (Thinkin', thinkin')
I don't know (Of Japan)
I don't know (Thinkin', thinkin')
How to pass the time (Of Japan)
I don't know (Thinkin', thinkin')
I don't know (Of Japan)
I don't know
Lately I've been dreamin'
Dreamin' of Japan
And every time I hear
The word I feel like sighin'
