Tokio

In a second of a heartbeat
When I first saw you
And hoped that you'd be mine
I didn't know then
Lips could taste so sweet
But it just keeps gettin' better all the time
I'm in ecstasy
When you're next to me
I wanna make love to you
Be your only girl
In the city that I love most in the world
Don't you know that Tokio is touched with magic
It's a city full of castles in the air
Did I tell you that I love you
The city we can share
When I'm dreanin'
Tokio and you are there
Life keeps changin'
Rearranging
And it always hits you with a new surprise
Sometimes good things
Sometimes heartache
In this world where truth gets lost among the lies
I'm ecstasy
When you're next to me
In the city where there's silence in a sound
Here in Tokio there's beauty all around
And I pray that everytime you see the city lights
You'll want my face beside you shinin' through the night
Did I tell you that I love you
The city we can share
When I'm dreanin'
Tokio and you are there
