So far away from the garden we love She is what moves in the soul of a dove Soon I shall see just how black was my night When we’re alone in Her City of light Rising from the neon gloom Shining like a crazy moon Yeah, she turns me on like a fire I get high My woman from Tokyo She makes me see My woman from Tokyo She’s so good to me
