Cherry blossom Japanese
Culture written on our streets
London calling Tokyo
Temples geisha Kyoto
We're holding a lifeline that ends
Clutching at straws with both our hands
I would do it again
I would do it again
Mount Fuji rising above the waves
Ikebana balance grace
Harakiri honour faith
Nagasaki rainy days
We're holding a lifeline that ends
Clutching at straws with both our hands
I would do it again
Something must give something must break
Our sense of survival love not hate
I would do it again
I would do it again
Fool or a friend
I'd do it again
As the darkness comes (as the darkness comes the sound of neon hums)
The sound of neon hums (now the nights awake with shooting stars and shapes)
Now the nights awake (winter nights turn cold and the traffic slows)
With shooting stars and shapes (so much still at stake how much can we take)
Winter nights turn cold (as the darkness comes the sound of neon hums)
And the traffic slows (now the nights awake with shooting stars and shapes)
Still so much at stake (winter nights turn cold and the traffic slows)
At stake (still so much at stake, still so much at stake, how much we can take before we lose our way)
We're holding a lifeline that ends
Clutching at straws with both our hands
I would do it again
I would do it again
Something must give something must break
Our sense of survival love not hate
I would do it again
I would do it again
