lyrics

Every evening I drive by
The place we'd go on a Friday night
To have tacos and white wine
But I haven't been inside for a while
Are you still with your new guy?
I don't even know what he looks like
But does he look at you like
I used to

What's the time in Tokyo?
It's the closest thing that I can know
I wonder if the sun shines on you, so
Siri, I'd really like to know
What's the time in Tokyo?

Today, you caught my attention
When I was least expecting
See I was only pretending
To care what was in the pictures
And then out of the blue came
The letters of your username
All of a sudden my view changed
And my thumb, it touched on you

So what's the time in Tokyo?
It's the closest thing that I can know
To anything that's going on for you
And so I'd really like to know
What's the time in Tokyo?

I don't know when you're heading home
Or if you even live here anymore
But I wish you well wherever you go
While I sit alone and ask my phone
What's the time in Tokyo?

What's the time in Tokyo?
It's the closest thing that I can know
I wonder if the moon shines on you, so
Siri, I'd really like to know
What's the time in Tokyo?
What's the time in Tokyo?
I miss you ever so.
