She’s my Japanese girl
Perfection
Sees things
In a different way
Spends her money
On beautiful clothes
And traveling all
Around the world
I want to follow her to Hong Kong,
Paris, Moscow,
Dublin and Berlin
All year long
If I write to her
She’ll send me a gift
Wrapped in silk
And a friendship Hieroglyph
And when she gets excited
I’ll put my finger to her lips
And say stay sweet
My Japanese girl
On the blossom streets
She’ll run barefoot
Watch them fly up
And join the wind
She’s not afraid to be a girl
She’s happy just to be herself
Oblivious to the waiting world
She’s my Japanese girl
