Tokyo Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I am neon
Cold neon
Not a mystery
All I've ever known is
How to be alone
It comes naturally
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh baby, can I hold you?
Such a cold, cold night
I thought I wouldn't need to
I've got my neon lights
I'm longing just to feel you
To know that it's alright
Oh baby, baby, baby, baby
[Chorus]
I'm out of sight
I'm out of my mind
Alone in Tokyo
You're out of my reach
Wrong place, wrong time
Alone in Tokyo
[Verse 2]
Here I go again
To and fro again
Overnight delivery
Grew a thicker skin
Now it's wearing thin
You can see right into me, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh baby, can I hold you?
It's a cold, cold night
I thought I wouldn't need to
I've got my neon lights
If only just to feel you
To know that it's alright
Oh baby, baby, baby, baby
[Chorus]
I'm out of sight
I'm out of my mind
Alone in Tokyo
You're out of my reach
Wrong place, wrong time
Alone in Tokyo
I'm out of sight
Going out of my mind
Alone in Tokyo
You're out of my reach
Wrong place, wrong time
Alone in Tokyo
[Outro]
Oh, oh, oh
(I'm out of sight, I'm out of my mind)
Oh, oh
(You're out of my reach, wrong place, wrong time)

What did Lianne La Havas say about "Tokyo"?
The fact that I’ve travelled around so much and ended the [Blood] tour in Tokyo and the feeling that you get when you’re going from place to place can be somewhat lonely, even though, maybe, you’ve got your mates around you or your band, it, you know, it does get a bit – you feel a little bit isolat...
