A transistor radio comes from far away
And when it's night over here, over there, it's breakin' day
I remember all the good times I had a-walkin' in the sand
With the beautiful girl that I met, made in Japan
The beauty of her face was beyond my wildest dreams
Like cherry blossoms blooming in the mountain in the early spring
As we walked by the river, and she softly took hold of my hand
That's when I fell deep in love with the girl made in Japan
In the dark of night, we would lay on Tokyo Bay
And the singing of the birds woke us up at the break of day
Her smiling eyes always seem to try to understand
All the love in my heart for the girl made in Japan
A transistor radio comes from far away
And when it's night over here, over there, it's breakin' day
She cried when she said, she'd been promised to another man
That's when I left my heart with the girl made in Japan
Yes, my heart will always be with the girl made in Japan
