Japanese To English - Red House Painters

I went as far as losing sleep

I went as far as messing up my life

Unloving still strike me different

A million miles away from home

And fifteen from a payphone

Where we sat lonely on the sand

Where we sat lonely on the sand

Where we sat lonely on the sand

Where we sat lonely on the sand

You’re ten years older

We translate Japanese to English

And English to Japanese

It’s not that simple

This dictionary never has a word

For the way I’m feeling

It’s nothing plain for me

Of a different god and moral

What if I laid my head down on your stomach

And put my mouth to your hand

I cannot translate

Japanese to English

Or English to Japanese

What I had to say is unsaid

What I had to do is undone

And if it was done

I’m sure it would have killed our hour

Where we sat lonely on the sand

Where we sat lonely on the sand

Where we sat lonely on the sand

Where we sat lonely on the sand

Above the water the awful gray

Our current from Japan

Didn’t sweep away
