Back Streets of Tokyo

オフコース Back Streets of Tokyo歌詞
1.FOOL(WHAT DOES A FOOL DO NOW)

作詞:Randy Goodrum
作曲:小田和正

I look around an empty room
For something she left behind
Long time ahead of me without her
(There's nowhere to run)
A mountain of memories
I might get over or maybe not
Now every morning I feel it's happening
More than ever it's happening

※Photographs I've torn apart
Are still inside my mind
Old forgotten memories are back again
Fool
What does a fool do now
Fool
What does a fool do now※

I must have made a wrong turn back there
something tells me it's no mistake
I've wandered miles from my destination to places I used to take
her

(I shouldn't have come)
I know I never should have come out here
My only explanation
Is she's inside of me
That's where she'll always be
Long as I breathe I will need her

(※くり返し×2)

somebody tell me oh What does a fool do now


2.SECOND CHANCE

作詞:Randy Goodrum
作曲:Kazumasa Oda

Why
In the middle of the night
You call me on the phone
We both know it's over

No, not much since you've been gone
Tryin' to think, it's been so long
Tell me what's come over you
In case you don't remember

You said good-bye
You told me love had died
And someday I would know
We were never meant to be

But now you're calling me to say
You're sorry now, it's your mistake
You're begging me to change my mind
I can't help but wonder why

Don't hang up on me
Give me just one minute more
The words I hear you saying I have never heard before

A second chance
A second chance
Try to get it right this time
A second chance
A second chance
To love again

I'm
Trying to clear my mind
Afraid to ask the time
Or where you're calling from

It's just another song and dance
And I don't need a new romance
I stopped waiting up at night for
You to come back in my life

Don't hang up on me
Give me just one minute more
The words I hear you saying I have never heard before

A second chance
A second chance
Try to get it right this time
A second chance
A second chance
To love again

It's just another song and dance
And I don't need a new romance
I stopped waiting up at night for
You to come back in my life

Don't hang up on me
Give me just one minute more
The words I hear you saying I have never heard before

A second chance
A second chance
Try to get it right this time
A second chance
A second chance
To love again


3.LOVE'S DETERMINATION


4.HER PRETENDER

作詞:Randy Goodrum
作曲:Kazumasa Oda

She wants to change me
To someone I'll never be
Like a chameleon
Till I become the face in her dream

And even though he broke her heart
She still wants him
Nothing I can do will set her free

Like an illusion
Surrounded by fantasy
A lover's confusion
She only sees what she wants to see

I guess I'm just an imitator
Soon to be
The love I feel was never meant for me

I'm her pretender
I'll never leave her
I'll be her someone else
Until the end of time

I'm her pretender
Can't live without her
I'll be her someone else
Until the end of time

My face in the mirror
Is not what she really sees
And when I am near her
I feel I'm acting out a scene

And even though he's gone her love is
On, so blind
I'm living out some other lover's life

I'm her pretender
I'll never leave her
I'll be her someone else
Until the end of time

I'm her pretender
Can't live without her
I'll be her someone else
Until the end of time

Knowing the way she looks at me
Something is not the same
Slowly but surely by degrees
His memory is starting to fade

I'm her pretender
I'll never leave her
I'll be her someone else
Until the end of time

I'm her pretender
Can't live without her
I'll be her someone else
Until the end of time


5.EYES IN THE BACK OF MY HEART

作詞:Randy Goodrum
作曲:小田和正

There you go
Saying it once again
I know you're just pretending
Your tender touch is not the same

No, I don't believe your smile
I've known he was there all the while
You can stop all your foolish games

Tell me that you love me like you really mean it
Who do you think that you're deceiving
All the answers that you say, I can't believe are true
I've got eyes in the back of my heart
Watching you

Pardon me
The way that your feeling shows
That's not the kiss that I know
You're going through the motions

Lies
Why do you waste your time
Couldn't you just say goodbye
Here's your chance to walk out the door

Tell me that you love me like you really mean it
Who do you think that you're deceiving
All the answers that you say, I can't believe are true
I've got eyes in the back of my heart
Eyes in the back of my heart
Eyes in the back of my heart
Watching you

How Long Has It gone on
Set Me Free
I need to know

You say you love me like you really mean it
Who do you think that you're deceiving
(No, you're not fooling me)
All the answers that you say, I can't believe are true
Tell me that you love me like you really mean it
(Tell me how you feel)
Who do you think that you're deceiving
(No, you're not fooling me)
All the answers that you say, I can't believe are true
I've got eyes in the back of my heart
Watching
Eyes in the back of my heart
Watching
Eyes in the back of my heart
Watching you

7.LOVE'S ON FIRE


8.ENDLESS NIGHTS

作詞:RANDY GOODRUM
作曲:KAZUMASA ODA

Slowly the sun goes down
Watching shadows begin to prowl
Gonna be another
Cold December
On the back streets of Tokyo

There's a light from a broken window
From the street you would never know
One face from another
Only strangers
On the back streets of Tokyo

Endless nights
Where hearts can hide
Where time stands still
And all memories die
Where nothing's real
In long endless nights

There's a lady with no expression
That forever has left behind
Underneath a stairway
In an alley
I feel like I know her

When I tell my heart's confession
I can see there's a tear in her eye
She says I'm a reminder
Of a lover
She's trying to get over

Endless nights
Where hearts can hide
Where time stands still
And all memories die
Where nothing's real
In long endless nights

Endless nights
(Night after night hide from the light)
Where hearts can hide
(That's where a heart learns to survive)
Where time stands still
(In the shadows that's where I go)
And all memories die
(And there's no sense of time in the long endless nights)
Endless nights
(Night after night places to hide)
Where hearts can hide
(That's where my heart wears a disguise)
Where nothing's real
(Where forever doesn't matter)
In long endless nights
('Cause there no sense of time in the long endless nights)
