Lyric

Yo, to all the men around the world, you ever slipped a woman's kimono off?

The curtain of night falling down on Kiyomizu

Brushing your shoulder, my heart is confused too

Through the lattice windows, the light is shining through

Illuminating your face in the midnight blue

This city is cold, always keeping its distance

But tonight there’s a magic resisting persistence

No more tatamae, no hidden intention

Tonight we are speaking without apprehension

The space on the Kamo, the river we see

Is closing the gap between you and me

Midnight Kyoto Blue, I’m falling for you

Through a thousand-year history, pulling us through

The cold basin wind that blows in the dark

Is melting away with your passionate spark

No need for words, just hold my hand tight

We’re escaping together into the night

The scent of the spice from your hair in the breeze

So beautiful now, it brings me to my knees

The world is so noisy, full of distraction

But next to your side, you’re my only attraction

Who made all these rules? I don't even care

We’re breaking 'em down, a rebellious pair

The color of passports, the scars on my skin

It don't even matter when love is within

The shadow of pagoda in the rearview mirror

Is watching our future get clearer and clearer

Walking up slowly the slope of Yasaka

Orange streetlights covering us like a locker

Even if tomorrow the routine returns

Tonight is a fever that permanently burns

In the depth of your eyes, I found my position

The home that I needed, my ultimate mission

The ice in the glass is starting to melt

Deep in my heart is the warmth that I felt

"Nice watch you got there," you say with a smile

Yeah, our time is moving, it’s been a long while

Cold asphalt ground, the sound of our feet

The most special night on this ancient street

Shut up and kiss me, before the stars fade

This is a real love, no beautiful facade made

Kyoto City, in the darkness of old

We found a new light that is ready to unfold

Let’s stay like this till the morning light skies

I’m giving my all to your paradise eyes
