I’m running away but I - can’t tell you why
I travel by train to get to the sea
A slow boat to Asia is waiting for me...
The moon becomes clear - the past fades out of sight
Picking up Angels - cast away in the night
And I’m getting closer to where I belong
Can’t tell you why I stayed away for so long...
The Eternal Empire rises from the mist
I make dragons tremble - when I shake my fist
Business men and sailors great my at the shore
Sweet delicate geishas behind - rice paper doors...
Counting the angels climbing out from the snow
I’m hiding from the world but I - can’t say where I’ll go
I could get lost in Brazil or the North of Thailand
But my heart is breaking - my soul is aching...
for Japan...
maybe it's just the japan in my dreams...

In my humble opinion . . .
stanza #2 --reverse the first two lines---Picking up angels should come first. ----consistency
