Jori Tokyo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How long can we stay apart?
You may get it maybe never
But it's coming from the heart.
Your life is full of indecision
You can't make up your mind.
We must get it in position
And move it on down the line.
I been on that road too long of a time
Yes the road is long, and it winds and winds
When I think of the love that I left behind.
Make me up a bed of roses
And hang them down from the vine
Of all my loves you've been the closest
That's ever been on my mind.
Please don't talk about tomorrow
I'm really not one to care
This world is filled with too much sorrow
That nobody's heart should bear.
'Cause the road is long, it's a long hard climb
I been on that road too long of a time
Yes the road is long, and it winds and winds
When I think of the love that I left behind.
Please, please give me indication
Stop and talk to me
Like a river that is flowing
My love will never cease to be.
You will always be my honey
No one could take your part
Our love can't be bought with money
'Cause it's coming from the heart.
'Cause the road is long, it's a long hard climb
I been on that road too long of a time
Yes the road is long, and it winds and winds
When I think of the love that I left behind.
Jori Tokyo's song "1984" is a call for unity and a plea for people to come together. The lyrics suggest that the road to progress and change might be a long and difficult journey, but the only way to make progress is to work together. The chorus underscores this point, as the singer laments how long the road is, how long he's been traveling it, and how much he misses the love he's left behind. However, this longing is juxtaposed against a sense of hope and determination, as the singer urges his listeners to stop making excuses and work towards a better future.
The verses highlight some of the challenges that come with trying to unite people. The first verses critique indecision and apathy, suggesting that these attitudes hold people back from making progress. The second verse similarly calls on people to live in the present, as the world is already filled with too much sorrow. However, the final verse offers a message of love and commitment, urging people to stop and talk, and promising eternal love and devotion.
