Lyric

I walk beneath a thousand signs

With half a plan and too much time

The crossing changes, people move

No one asks what I must prove

A river holds the colored sky

A bicycle goes passing by

I let the evening hear me sigh

Tokyo doesn't ask me why

It doesn't need the perfect words

It keeps my silence undisturbed

Tokyo doesn't ask me why

I stayed too long or changed my mind

It only gives me one more light

One more corner in the night

I can come here as I am

With empty pockets, open hands

The city never asks me why

It simply lets me walk beneath the sky

Behind the glass, a family eats

A song escapes into the street

A tired cook turns off the flame

The night receives us all the same

I thought I needed to explain

Every loss and every change

But under all this patient light

I can leave the reasons behind

It doesn't need a grand reply

It only opens up the night

Tokyo doesn't ask me why

I stayed too long or changed my mind

It only gives me one more light

One more corner in the night

I can come here as I am

With empty pockets, open hands

The city never asks me why

It simply lets me walk beneath the sky

Maybe kindness is a place

That makes no question of your face

Tokyo doesn't ask me why

I lost the map or took my time

It only gives me one more light

One more hour to make it right

I can come here as I am

With empty pockets, open hands

The city never asks me why

It simply lets me breathe beneath the sky

Tokyo doesn't ask me why
