Alphaville - Apollo - lyrics

Show me a place that aint hell, if theres space, give me room to breathe
Thats all that I need for this body cant fail
And if music be the food of love, play on, give me excess of it
Let it all out, please let me out of here
And I shall rise from the ashes
Grow like a rose from the ruins
There must be light in the darkness
Hope at the end of the night
Yes, Ive been tryin all my life to get to heaven
But awoke in the eye of the storm
But I shall rise from the ashes, grow from the ruins and return
Back home
This is a call from the gaols coming up to the prisoners of pleasure
Drunk on the blood of the next generations
And Ive been through many strange confusions, splitting myself into to many faces
Now the mirror is broken, I can see the worms behind
You may well have your ways of triumph, you may well have your ways of truth
Just gimme some room to breathe, thats all that I need
Me and my strange friends
We all belong to the grand astral body
(take my hand and I take you out of here)
And theres you behind those legendary curtains
Take my hand before you wither in the crowd
And I take you out of here
This is the end of the show, I dont know was I wrong was I right
Oh love, I dont know, I wasnt perfect for sure
But now I feel like a new born baby, lying in the dew of the morning
Laughing at the sky like a brave new apollo

Alphaville - And As For Love - lyrics

and as for love
that i denied one time too many
she left me at the break of day
when i awoke she seemed still spinning in my head
but she was gone, the capsule empty and her body dead
was all she'd left behind without a last adieu
sometimes i wonder if she4d left a hundred years ago
to start anew we need to be strangers from now on
and as for love we need to be strangers from now on
and i remember when she came into my life
it didn't count who she was or what i was like
i never meant to hurt her but she never did
her name was love, her bodies infinite
and now she is gone, the capsule empty and her body dead
sometimes i wonder if she'd left a hundred years ago
to start anew we need to be strangers from now on
and as for love we need to be strangers from now on...

Alphaville - Afternoons In Utopia - lyrics

Acrobats and comets floating by so fast
Childrens faces smile like suns at last
Lilac butterflies are cruising without fear
All inviting you to stay and rest here
You can halt your car for an afternoon in utopia
We shall stop the wars on those afternoons in utopia
Mighty mao moondog drifts across the grass
Healing lullabies for easter time on mars
Paint your hats and shoues with flowers and with stars
Singing in metropolitan operas
You can halt your car for an afternoon in utopia
We shall stop the wars on those afternoons in utopia

Alphaville - Anyway - lyrics

Welcome
Or should I say goodbye
Its a question how close we are apart
Are you going back home after this show
Or leaving for the wild
And when you passing the wardrobe
What will you take
Your worn out hat of hopes
Or someone elses attractive furs to make it through
The playgrounds of your life
All is shown
All shut down
All the world is gone
All the pieces came together
Finally
But not too late
All is shown
All shut down
All the world is gone
Just pretend that Im not there
Make your choice
I love you anyway
Just make your choice
Pretend that Im not there
All the world is gone
All the world is gone
Just take it
Just take it
And youll make it
Alright, yeah
Ride on
Ride on

Alphaville - All In The Golden Afternoon - lyrics

All in the golden afternoon full leisurely we glide
For both our oars, with little skill, by little arms are plied
While little hands make vain pretence our wanderings to guide
Ah, cruel three! in such an hour beneath such dreamy wheather
To beg a tale of breath too weak to stir the tiniest feather
And what can one poor voice avail against three tongues together
Anon, to sudden silence won, in fancy they persue
The dream child moving through a land of wonders wild and new
In friendly chat with bird or beast- and half believe it true
And ever as the story drained the wells of fancy dry
And faintly strove that weary one to put the subject by
The next time. it is next time the happy voices cry
Thus grew the tale of wonderland, thus slowly, one by one
Its quaint events were hammered out
And now the tale is done and home we steer
A merry crew
Beneath the setting sun
Lewis carrol

Alphaville - A Victory Of Love - lyrics

Waiting for a change in the weather
I'm waiting for a shift in the air,
Could we get it together - ever -
Hoping for your return
Hoping for your sweet, sweet return
Hello - is this how we calling?
Hello - hello
Is somebody there?
She must be somewhere
And then she says
Hello - hello - hello
She's really an angel -
She stands in the sunshine
She's closing her eyes -
She's starting to dream
She's pulling the strings
She's dreaming a strange dream
Where nothing is grey -
Then she takes me away
And she's pulling the strings
When she's playing with love
She's playing with love, hello - hello
Counting - I count every second
And I'm standing
I stand in the rain,
I walk up that lane
Which leads to the sunshine
She stands in the sunshine
She's closing her eyes
Then she takes me away
And she's pulling the strings
When she's playing with love
She's playing with love
Hello - hello

Alphaville - About A Heart - lyrics

there's a doubt in my heart
and it's sinking deep inside of me
it's the way that you talk
it's in the way you're touching me
when i look into your eyes
you're a million miles away from me
and there's nothing i can do
there's nothing left to say
you'll break my heart, there's nothing left to say
you'll break my heart,there's nothing i can do
you'll break my heart...
rip it off and watch it fall..
will you go - will you stay
is there any chance for me to keep you here
by my side - or is my fate already sealed
is there anybody else
or am i still the only one
if it's so then i don't care
just waiting for the blow to come
you see, there's nothing i can do
you'll break my heart (in any case) there's nothing left to say
(you'll break my heart...)
rip it off and watch it fall...
you'll break my heart, there's nothing left to say
you'll break my heart,there's nothing i can do
you'll break my heart, rip it off, rip it off
you'll break my heart...

Alphaville - All In A Golden Afternoon (instrumental) - lyrics

All in the golden afternoon full leisurely we glide
For both our oars, with little skill, by little arms are plied
While little hands make vain pretence our wanderings to guide
Our wanderings to guide
Ah, cruel three! In such an hour, beneath such dreamy weather
To beg a tale of breath too weak to stir the tiniest feather
Yet what can one poor voice avail, against three tongues together
Against three tongues together
Anon, to sudden silence won, in fancy they pursue
The dream child moving through a land of wonders wild and new
In friendly chat with bird or beast--and half believe it true
And half believe it true
And ever, as the story drained the wells of fancy dry
And faintly strove that weary one to put the subject by
The next time--"It is next time" the happy voices cry!
The happy voices cry!
Thus grew the tale of wonderland, thus slowly one by one
Its quaint events were hammered out--and now the tale is done
And home we steer
A merry crew
Beneath the setting sun

Alphaville - And I Wonder - lyrics

Im going out, I dont know why, theres no need at all
A kind of turbulence outside and I cant resist the call
I hear a siren, I might be late, fire flickers on a barricade
A piece of smack melts in my brain as I watch the police deploy
And I wonder
Did not expect to meet you here in the middle of the fights
I should have known, you got it all, you wanna burn tonight
Out in the riots you looked somehow devine
You gotta kill a cop sometime
A random motion thats what you are, these days are so bizarre
And I wonder to see your face in a place like this
Reflecting the flames
You see the market there across the square
Its closing time but all the doors are broken
Why dont we step inside, its free for everyone, you see
Its paradise, well alright
And I wonder to see your face in a place like this
Reflecting the flames
