Tokyo
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 the floor of a Shibuya apartment
What a funny way to make new friends
And whatever we lost in translation
We found in saké and ski jump compilations
I wish I was back in Tokyo
Where the darkness 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 waiting for me
Didn't hit me 'til I was in the taxi
Now you all getting Nikka from Haneda, tax-free
I wish I was back in Tokyo
Where the darkness 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
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 darkness 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
Wish I was back in Tokyo
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 the floor of a Shibuya apartment
What a funny way to make new friends
And whatever we lost in translation
We found in saké and ski jump compilations
I wish I was back in Tokyo
Where the darkness 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 waiting for me
Didn't hit me 'til I was in the taxi
Now you all getting Nikka from Haneda, tax-free
I wish I was back in Tokyo
Where the darkness 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
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 darkness 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
Wish I was back in Tokyo
