Little Japan - Los Lobos

Alone at night with sleepless eyes

The starlit sky don’t seem to mind

A candle’s burnin' a hundred years

Like a baby cryin' a thousand tears

But it’s been so long

And the days go on and on A town is sleepin' across the sea

In a land that’s only a memory

A red sun’s risin' as if to say

«Don't ever leave me, don’t go away»

But I gotta be strong

As time goes on and on What can I do in dreams so blue where I see you

My little Japan, my little Japan

Morning’s comin' through evening’s rest

I’ve tried my hardest, I’ve done my best

Is it right to say to you

What my spirit’s calling for me to do?

But I can’t be wrong

I gotta go on and on Along the way, I’ll hope and pray I can see the day

I could be with you, my little Japan

I can be with you
