歌詞

Her heart is nearly breaking, the earth is nearly quaking The Tokyo's taxi's braking, it's screaming to a halt And there's nothing to hold on to when gravity betrays you And every kiss enslaves you-oo-oo She knows how hard her heart grows under the nuclear shadows She can't escape the feeling repeating in her head When after all the urges some kind of truth emerges We felt the deadly surges Discovering Japan--an --an Discovering Japan--an --an The GIs only use her, they only ram right through her Giving an eastern promise, that they could never keep Seeing a million miles, between their joke and smiles She heard their hard denials [don't pause] As the tears dropped sideways down her face, face I woke up talking in the tongue of a different race, race And as the flight touches down my watch says 8:02 But that's midnight to you, Midnight to you Midnight to you I dreamed headlong collisions in jet lag panavisions I shouted sayonara it didn't mean goodbye But lovers turn to posers show up in film exposures Just like in travel brochures Discovering Japan Discovering Japan (x6 and fade)
