Lost in Japan

[Verse 1] Sittin’ in a hotel lobby, neon buzzin’ low Met a girl who called me “puppy,” said I had nowhere to go Yeah, she smiled like trouble, and I fell too fast My eyes were gettin’ heavy, like the night was made of stone She said she kinda liked me… but she didn’t like me alone Yeah, she liked me just fine — but she liked him better Oh my… Lord, she liked him better ⸻ [Chorus] Please take me home Before this whiskey turns to regret Please take me home I ain’t done losin’ yet Take me somewhere quiet Where the lights don’t shine so bright Please take me home I’ve had enough tonight ⸻ [Verse 2] Took her to a restaurant, candle burnin’ thin Waiter called me “darlin’,” said, “Where you two been?” Yeah, he looked at her… then he looked at me Room kept spinnin’ slow, like a worn-out vinyl track She said, “You’re sweet, baby”… but I knew she ain’t comin’ back Yeah, she liked me just fine — but she liked him better Oh my… She liked him better ⸻ [Chorus] Please take me home Before I lose my pride Please take me home There’s nowhere left to hide These city lights are laughin’ They know I lost the fight Please take me home I’ve had enough tonight ⸻ [Verse 3] I’m lost in Japan, suitcase in my hand Askin’ empty sidewalks, “Was this the plan?” Yeah, my mind’s runnin’ circles in the rain Maybe it’s just my head Maybe I just need bed ‘Cause my eyes are gettin’ heavy And my heart’s full of pain I could’ve been her maybe But she chose him instead Oh my… Yeah, she chose him instead ⸻ [Final Chorus / Slow Down] Please take me home Let the night roll by Please take me home Before I break down and cry No more neon heartbreak No more late-night blues Please take me home I got nothin’ left to lose
