Forever Young

Let's dance in style, lets dance for a while
Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies
Hoping for the best but expecting the worst
Are you going to drop the bomb or not?

Let us die young or let us live forever
We don't have the power but we never say never
Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip
The music's for the sad men

Can you imagine when this race is won
Turn our golden faces into the sun
Praising our leaders we're getting in tune
The music's played by the madmen

Forever young, i want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever, forever and ever

Some are like water, some are like the heat
Some are a melody and some are the beat
Sooner or later they all will be gone
Why don't they stay young

It's so hard to get old without a cause
I don't want to perish like a fading horse
Youth is like diamonds in the sun
And dimonds are forever

So many adventures couldn't happen today
So many songs we forgot to play
So many dreams are swinging out of the blue
We let them come true

This days an invitation
And it's just for you
You've got a reservation
For the 17th of june
Open your eyes and let the sun break in for a while
There may be something that you've never seen inside
Feel how your heart beats like a
Heavy machine
The sound of the traffic is like a
Silent dream
The dust in the park, the exhaust from the cars
Ascends in that heated afternoon
You touch a sweaty body

Summer in berlin, it's alright
The day feel so tired from the led in the air and the fire in the sky
Life seemed to be a fault of grace but it's okay
It gave you a kiss in the middle of the crossroads
Summer in berlin, it's alright
The heat of the sun which is stored in the pavement feels so fine
Here stands the innocent and there it comes oh so wild
That's when you're longing for a summer by the wall

Summer in berlin, it's okay

He's in the mood to touch the fire
He's in the mood to touch everything you are

Jacky's locked in a silent dream
He's watching movies on the tv screen
He feels unsteady, lights a cigarette
He's getting mellow in his cabinet

Oh, jacky, when everything goes wrong
Get ready, for you've got to be, you've got to be so strong
It's so supersensual, sentimental
Forget about your deepest fears
Switch back to the golden years

You've got to touch the fire, wake up little boy
You've got to play the fire

Jacky's spying, is it her or not
His eyes are burning cause the brain's too hot
He sitting calmly on his swivel chair
There's something coming from the upper stairs

Now listen to me, jacky
You were always so lonesome in that quiet lonely house
High on a hill
Now come... come and meet me
You know where
And we take a nice and easy holiday
Back in the old, old days of happiness

Oh jacky....
Switch back to the golden years

alphaville:

Sounds like a melody


It's a trick of my mind
To faces bathing in the screenlight
She's so soft and warm in my arms
I tune it into the scene
My hand are resting on her shoulders
When we're dancing away for a while
Oh, we're moving, we're falling, we step into the fire
By the hour of the wolf in a midnight dream
There's no reason to hurry, just start that brand new story
Set it alight, we're head over heels in love
Head over heels

The ringing of your laughter it sounds like a melody
To once forbidden places we'll go for a while

It's the definite show
Our shadows resting in the moonlight
It's so clear and bright in your eyes
It's the touch of your sighs
My lips are resting on your shoulder
When we're moving so soft and slow
We need the extasy, the jelousy, the comedy of love
Like the cary grants and kellys once before
Give me more tragedy, more harmony and phantasy, my ***d e a r***
And set it alight, just starting that satellite
Set it alight

I hear those voices on the radio
I switched it off because she told me so
She's an investigator, she's like an elevator
Nobody told me we'd be all alone, you know
Somewhere my friend had left me in that twilight zone, you know
She said, i've seen your deepest secrets now
They're just as lightning in the look of your eyes

I said, i want you baby, isaid, i want some more
I said, i never ever felt it like that moment before
She's an assassin, she's melting steel in my heart
And i beg for more
She said, i want your body, she said, i want your soul
She said, a fallen angel takes it and she'll never let go
She's an invader, she's from another world
And i beg for more and more

She's raising feelings cutting like a knife
She's pouring fire into my liquid life
There's no escaping from her mysteries
She gives me kisses of the strangest kind, she says
I know you'll like it, so come over here, she says
And let that rhythm filter through your body, dear
And then she...
She always did it and she always will
She'll stay that hunter till the end of time

I said, i want you baby, isaid, i want some more
I said, i never ever felt it like that moment before
She's an assassin, she's melting steel in my heart
And i beg for more
She said, i want your body, she said, i want your soul
She said, a fallen angel takes it and she'll never let go
She's an invader, she's from another world
And i beg for more and more..
