This might not be the worst day of my life But I'm pretty sure it won't be the best I swear I got the best kind of rest When I didn't even sleep in a bed On a floor of a Shibuya apartment What a funny way to make new friends And whatever we lost in translation [?] saké and [?] compilations
I wish I was back in Tokyo, where the dark was interrupted by neon And loneliness felt like freedom And no one understood my Norwegian I wish I was back in Tokyo I wish I was back in Tokyo, Tokyo
So ecstatic that I got distracted Forgot a family Christmas waited for me Didn't hit me 'til I was in the taxi Now [?]
I wish I was back in Tokyo, whеre the dark was interruptеd by neon And loneliness felt like freedom And no one understood my Norwegian I wish I was back in Tokyo I wish I was back in Tokyo, Tokyo
Oh, I wish I was back in Tokyo I wish I was back in Tokyo, Tokyo
Where I couldn't even ask for directions But then I found that I didn't need them Good thing no one understood my Norwegian
I wish I was back in Tokyo, where the dark was interrupted by neon And loneliness felt like freedom And no one understood my Norwegian Oh, I wish I was back in Tokyo I wish I was back in Tokyo, Tokyo
