Track Insight / Lyrics
Raindrops on the record spin
Faded flecks that dance within
My mind and heart, an abyss
Where the past and present hiss
In this neon alley's sigh
Where shadows dance and whisper by
I'm lost, a record in the dark
Seeking sound, a voice to spark
Perhaps some melody can wrap
Around these hollow, heavy scraps
Of memory and longing pain
And spin it to a love refrain
In the Tokyo twilight, I'll find
A symphony to be my guide
Through these city streets so cold
And lonely love that nevers grows old
The gramophone's scratched, worn tone
Speaks secrets left uncovered lone
In bars where lovers' voices fade
And broken dreams are softly played
Perhaps some melody can wrap
Around these hollow, heavy scraps
Of memory and longing pain
And spin it to a love refrain
In the Tokyo twilight, I'll find
A symphony to be my guide
Through these city streets so cold
And lonely love that nevers grows old
In every turn of spliced vinyl wheels
I hear a ghostly whisper's seashell
Echoes of hearts that beat as one
But I alone remain, beneath the sun
In the Tokyo twilight, I'll find
A symphony to be my guide
Through these city streets so cold
And lonely love that nevers grows old
So I'll turn up the volume loud
And let the music wash me proud
Of pain and longing, all awhile
In search of love on Tokyo's streets, in the twilight's smile
