The land of the rising sun it calls me
I must head across the sea
You can keep your Venice in Italy
It’s Osaka in Japan for me
Well shiranu ga hotoke
Oh shiranu ga hotoke
Maybe it is better not to know
I’m sorry girl I have to let you go
She knows I’m a loner
But I’m big in Japan
She knows I wouldn’t have no other
So I keep both of my feet in the sand
Well shiranu ga hotoke
Oh shiranu ga hotoke
Maybe it is better not to know
I’m sorry girl I have to let you go
She told me that she loved me, I told her I had to go away
To get home, to that island, I tried, and I tried but I just could not say
I love you, I guess I loved you, but did I love you
More than yesterday?
I’m coming home.
