This is "Hiroshima Mon Amour" by The Church from their 1999 LP A Box Of Birds. It is a cover version of the song originally done by Ultravox. This is a fan video and I own nothing of its contents. Special thanks to Matty Brown and his video Japan on Vimeo.com vimeo.com/matthewbrown

Lyrics:
Somehow we drifted off too far
Communicate like distant stars
Splintered voices down the phone
The sunlit dust, the smell of roses drifts, oh no
Someone waits behind the door
Hiroshima mon amour
Riding inter-city trains
Dressed in European grey
Riding out to echo beach
A million memories in the trees and sands, oh no
How can I ever let them go?
Hiroshima mon amour
Deep beneath the autumn lake
Where only echoes penetrate
Walk through polaroids of the past
Futures fused like shattered glass, the suns so low
Turns our silhouettes to gold
Hiroshima mon amour
