On a world flight late one night
He left his friends, he left his wife
Far to the east, destination unknown
Doesn't even know where to call his home
Thought he had it bad back on the block
Knocking down pints with no afterthought
Now he's far away in some foreign land
He took for granted all he had
CHORUS
2x Over the Sea of Japan
He left his freedom, he left his land
Over the Sea of Japan
12 beers later and the sun in his face
It's not a bad dream, he's really in this place
360 days to some, but they're not in the land of the morning calm.
