murakami
Singer: jason reeves
i found you today
while i was reading patti smith
and she mentioned your name
so i drove to the store
and i bought a copy of
the wind-up bird and let it rain
town like japan
sipping sencha
on the train to kyoto on saturday
wondering through the fushimi gates
murakami
you paint real life
on a snow white empty page
like origami
you fold your light
in a brand new ancient away
and i know your pen is mightier
than a samurai's sword
it's diamond sharpened
murakami
your words inspire
from an island far away
you sound like a symphony
yeah
you sound like a symphony
yeah
i chased that sheep
all the way out to hokkaido
i couldn't find a thing
anywhere
and i felt so alone
that i traveled back to tokyo
to walk those neon streets
weaving like
that you drew in silence
while your
and bernstein vinyl played
listening to every mark they made
murakami
you paint real life
on a snow white empty page
like origami
you fold your light
in a brand new ancient way
and i know your pen is mightier
than a samurai's sword
it's diamond sharpened
murakami
your words inspire
from an island far away
you sound like a symphony
yeah
you sound like a symphony
yeah
and i wonder what would men do without women
would we live in caves and go for days
without a shave just watching television
all alone
staring at the phone just wishing
someone else was home
murakami
you paint real life
on a snow white empty page
like origami
you fold your light
in a brand new ancient way
and i know your pen is mightier
than a samurai's sword
it's diamond sharpened
murakami
your words inspire
from an island far away
you sound like a symphony
yeah
you sound like a symphony
yeah
you sound like a symphony
yeah
you sound like a symphony
yeah
