Do you remember
The first day of our love?
It ought not to be
Such an old story
Where was the party
Where we happened to meet?
What did we talk about?
About rare records?
Don't you remember
My hair style?
Is the only thing you remember
Our kiss that night?

Where's our love
Now, what will
Happen to us ?
Forgetting myself
Feeling blue
My heart's ready to break
But
Please
Pretend not to know
The answer yet

Then, the next day
We fell in love
Do you believe in
Love at first sight?
Unbridled love is
Quite like a rodeo
Where did you park
Your little red car that night?

Our love goes on
But what will
Tomorrow bring?
I feel like i want to
Throw open a big window
And scream
But nobody can
See the future

Soon our love will end
Is it destiny?
Will this throbbing thrill
Suddenly fade away?
I want us to
Keep the world warm forever, but
Where's your little red car
Going to now?

Forgetting myself
Feeling blue
My heart's ready to break
Lovers
Keep repeating
These questions without an answer

Talking like a kid
Walking like a kid
Biting your nails like a kid
Being selfish like a kid

Favorite foods like a kid
Eating like a kid
Being fussy like a kid
Becoming whimsical like a kid

With a sulky face
You're so quiet
Then talking away
It seems endless
You're the type who'd be happy
Being told you're
Like holden caulfield
Or something

Loving tv like a kid
Loving games like a kid
Telling lies like a kid
Suddenly crying like a kid

That's fine as it is
Somehow everyday
Making a living
Doing what you like
Appearing on tv
Appearing in magazines
Releasing records
Becoming famous
If you can make living on playing
That's fine as it is
If you make it to the airplane,
That's fine as it is
That's fine as it is

Putting on kids clothes
Needing attention like a kid
Wasting money like a kid
Loving to break things like a kid

Always being pampered
By someone
Always loving to
Play loud with someone
Pushing the accelerator
And speeding up
Making a mess
Of your hotel room

That's fine as it is,
Somehow everyday
You make a living
Walking a tightrope
Appearing on tv,
Appearing in magazines
Becoming rich
Being in scandals
If you can make a living by playing,
That's fine as it is
If you show up to the party,
That's fine as it is
If you're paying taxes,
That's fine as is
If you make it to the airplane,
That's fine as is
That's fine as is

If you don't have money
There's no need to cry
Don't pull this face
Like everything's so bad
Kissing
Making love
And just laughing
Are still free

Like a flower needs water
You and i
Need a spoonful of love
In our lives

On a national holiday
We have to spend the day
Making merry
On this day

You and i need love
Like we need sunlight
Like we need fresh water
We need love

Laugh as if you were happy
Wear fun clothes
Strike fun poses
Always laugh
Ha ha ha
If you've come this far
Laugh ha ha ha

Funky, too funky

If you're gonna pull
Such a depressed face
Just blow it all up
With dynamite

Like a flower needs water
You and i
Need a spoonful of love
In our lives

You and i need love
Like we need sunlight
Like we need fresh water
We need love

Like a flower needs water
You and i
Need a spoonful of love
In our lives

Before i die
Just once would be enough
I want to try and laugh as hard as i can
Whistle and walk,
On the sunny side of the street

In the pocket of my only good clothes
There's never any money but,
On the sunny side of the street,
I'll dance
Like astaire and...

In the middle of main street
I'll see you by chance
I'll yell out your name
Hug and kiss and...

Before i die
Just once would be enough
I want to be loved as much as possible
On the sunny side of the street
I'll whistle and
Walk side by side

And then i'll be with you 'til morning
On a rose-colored bed
We'll talk of foolish things
Hug and kiss and..

Before i die
Just once would be enough
I want to try and laugh as hard as i can
On the sunny side of the street,
If i laugh, the more i cry
I'll whistle and step out
I'll dance
Like astaire and...

'bye-bye'

You're happy and
Then all of a sudden you're sad
You are
So bizarre, honey

If you
Pull this
Moping face on me
There's nothing more to say
You fell in love
With someone again and
Got dumped didn'tcha

Happy sad
That's some nickname you got
You're always standing
In a sulky pose

The record we got
And listened to together
Last night
Had this boring love song on
Side one and this depressing
Jazz song on the other side

The record player goes on
Spinning in the night
Some soul music
Makes me feel like dancing
It goes on and on and on
Forever
Happy sad

If i'm with you
I'll always be
Happy sad happy sad oo-ooh
If i love you
I'll always be
Happy sad happy sad oo-ooh

Hey, are you crying? no!
You're laughing
You're just
Like rainy weather
Honey

Now don't pull this
Sad face
There's nothing
Left to say
After all
The fun you had
Now you're depressed

The record player goes on
Spinning in the night
If you don't want to dance
I'll dance by myself
Forever
Happy sad

If i'm with you
I'll always be
Happy sad happy sad oo-ooh
If i love you
I'll always be
Happy sad happy sad oo-ooh

The record player goes on
Spinning in the night
Some soul music
Makes me feel like dancing and
Suddenly ends

---(overdose)---

Forever
Happy sad

As i watched telly vacantly
I had a strange dream
Then i realised as i checked my watch
It was seven at night in tokyo

I've been dressing up since morning
Just to see you
I want to be loved all night
It's seven at night in tokyo

The restaurant where
We were to meet
Had closed and disappeared
I'm so hungry
I could die
I want to see you right away
I want to see you right away

In the end i couln't meet you
I stayed at a hotel alone
The city that never sleeps
It's seven at night in tokyo

Had something to eat alone
Admired the city from the window
Wept till i felt better then slept
Nighttime in tokyo is a mysterious thing

In the whole world
I'm the only one
You love
That day you promised me so
I want to see you right away
I want to see you right away

Suddenly a gush of wind
Comes through the open taxi window
Where are you?
It's seven at night in tokyo

I couldn't meet you
One year went by
I myself changed a bit
It's seven at night in tokyo

Waiting for the green light
The city hasn't changed
It's a bit quiet today
I want to see you right away
I want to see you right away

As i absently watched telly
I had this strange dream
Then i realised as i checked my watch
It was seven at night in tokyo

Last night there was a message
From you on my answering machine
Call you later, that's all
You said
It's seven at night in tokyo

I think you told me that day
I was the only one on earth
You loved, and i think you
Hugged me then but i'm not sure
Anymore. was it all but a strange
Dream i had?
A dream like the one i had that night
I want to see you right away
I want to see you right away

It's seven at night in tokyo
