Tokyo Lights

I liked the life of window walking

Night drinking 'til a morning crow greets

A peaceful stroll in Shibuyua's Golden hour

Communication has gotten so much

Easier with inventions by web men

There's so much more fun to be made

​

Yet I can't help but think Tokyo lights

Don't seem quite liked they used to be

And the moon is a different shade

And all the colours have changed,

Even if appearing the same

And I am lost in the crossroads

And I am lesser in love, and in love

But as I stare up at these

Winding lights and whirls

There be a flower being in the midst and

There be a shower of hope upon my being!

But I just remind myself and I must be clear

And obey these words in which wisdom was found

Don't forget to smile

Too many moons have passed without such joy

Don't forget to smile

Madly into the incoming traffic

Don't forget to smile

Madly at every eye that wanders by

Waving my hand but all of a sudden a gust of wind passes my face

And I am uplifted within

And now we are looming over a lake of low fog

And a bright figure slowly hovers above the mist

She found the fairest light

And she be smiling right into me

And I smile back effortlessly

​

Then she be a shadow

She disappears into the footstep din

And my boat is empty

But look!

She be standing there by the window,

And glances back

Maybe we can find that river

Which flows towards the sea of ancient waves

And flower beings, beyond the weeping trees

So stood there on the crossroads,

I tell myself again

Don't let your boat be empty

Don't be a sunken dream

Don't let your boat be empty

Don't be a sunken dream

Don't let your boat be empty

Don't be a sunken dream

Don't let the boat regret thee

For what you could have seen
