各駅停車 いくつ見送って私は何を 待ってるのかな低い空を 深く吸い込めば東京の味がした
口ずさむ故郷の唄 人波にかき消されて「大切なものは見えないよ」と 吹き抜ける風の中
東京未明、聴こえる 違う誰かの靴音急ぎ足で景色は変わる 悲しみ置き去りにして何処へ行くのこの道 私、うまく笑えないよいつの間にか夜に包まれて 一人言つ「東京」
シャボンの中 逆さまに映る淡い光と リンドウの花時は流れ 一人きり私東京に身を寄せた
踏切の向こうに浮かぶ 音のない交差点頑張れと手を振る君の声を いつまでも探してる
どうして息をするほど この胸苦しくなるのぬるい水を少し流して ゆっくりと顔を上げる何処へ行くの異邦人 次の列車は来ないのに流れ星も見えない空から 振りそそぐ「東京」
未だ明けぬ「東京」
How many local trains have I seen go byWhat am I exactly waiting for?When I deeply breathed in the low airI had a whiff of Tokyo
The tune from my hometown that I hum is smothered by the surging crowd"I can't see what's dear to me", I whisper, in the blowing wind
At dawn in Tokyo, I hear the footsteps of someone elseThe scenery is transformed at a hasty pace, replacing the night's melancholyWhere does this path lead? I can't seem to laugh how I'd like toWithout anyone knowing, I'm shrouded in darkness and, all alone, I murmur "Tokyo"
In a soap bubble I see the inverted reflectionOf a faint light and a bellflowerTime went by and, on my ownI went live at someone's in Tokyo
On the other side of the silent level crossing*I always look for you there to greet me and wish me good luck
Why does my chest hurt more and more at every breath?I cry a few lukewarm tears before slowly lifting my headWhere will a foreigner go if the next train doesn't arrive?Under a starless sky, it's pouring down on Tokyo
It's not light yet on Tokyo
