I think "Lovers in Japan" is simply about a couple getting through the toughest time no matter what the obstacle, that it may be bad right now but it'll get better eventually, to always look at the brighter side of things.

I think Coldplay cheer the people that live distant relations when one member is enrolled in the army or fighting some battles far from their lover with this song. "Sometimes even the right is wrong" show us the intention of the author to remind us this kind of situations should not exist but keeping the faith evolution will finish with this. "One day, we´re gonna get out". LOVERS KEEP ON THE ROAD YOU´RE ON

the song "lovers in japan" strikes me as relating to the japanese internment camps during world war 2. even the right is wrong... that could mean how, from a strategic military standpoint, the us should have put the japanese in the camps, but it was morally wrong. tonight maybe we're gonna run... some of the prisoners might try to escape... dreaming of the osaka sun would fit in with that. they are turning my head out, to see what im all about... the military interrogated them for information, to see if they were spies. im keeping my head down, to see what it feels like now... they're finally free, and just want to live a normal life, and not be made a spectacle of by the rest of the nation.
