In a time, in a place
|
In a world, they forgot
|
Lives the heart of me
|
A part that just won't die
|
Just a boy, not a man
|
Sent to war, in a land
|
They said we'd fight for their freedom
|
But I felt like a hired hand
|
|
Sometimes I have to find my way
|
Sometimes I have to get away
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Take me back to Tokyo Road
|
Take me back to Tokyo Road
|
|
Working hard, for a pass
|
Got the night, make it last
|
It was a time to remember
|
All my life I would never forget
|
In a bar, breathing smoke
|
Snorting whiskey, drinking coke
|
It was a time when no one would die
|
And there wasn't a care
|
|
Sometimes I wish it was that way
|
Cause sometimes I have to get away
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
This guy turns me around and he's pointing up the stairs
|
I found myself in her doorway but there wasn't anybody there
|
She walked in the room with nothing on but a red light
|
And with a smile she got so close to me.
|
She whispered something 'bout midnight
|
You know I didn't understand a word she said
|
But it felt so good
|
She knew that I didn't have any money
|
But baby I knew she would...
|
|
[Chorus]
