[Verse 1]
You're crossing the water for eastern delights
Cause now that you're gone
I feel like a stranger in New York tonight

[Hook]
And the rhythm was new to me
Tokyo nights
Well, she came in the night and she came in the night
And the vision was true to me
Tokyo nights
Well, she came for the moment and stayed till the end

[Chorus]
Ooh wee ah, take me to Tokyo (x2)

[Hook - Var. 1]
I was lonely in western days
Tokyo nights
Well, she took me away by saving my life
I was down in the rising sun
Tokyo nights
Well, I came for the moment and stayed till the end

[Chorus]
Ooh wee ah, take me to Tokyo (x2)

[Instrumental]

[Verse 1 - Var. 1]
Crossing the water for eastern delights
Cause now that you're gone
I feel like a stranger in New York tonight

[Outro]
I am calling you, take me to Tokyo
Ooh wee ah, take me to Tokyo
Ooh wee ah, take me to Tokyo
Ooh wee ah, take me to Tokyo

Ooh wee ah, take me to Tokyo (x4)

The three Gibb brothers were very close as children and spent most of their time together. Barry was born in 1946, and his twin brothers Maurice and Robin were born in 1949. Together, they went on to become one of the most popular bands of the 1970s.

The Bee Gees have sold more than 220 million records worldwide, and functioned as a group almost continuously from 1958 to 2003, when Maurice Gibb suddenly died during a coma.
