Alphaville - One Step Behind You Lyrics

Alphaville - One Step Behind You Video

I'm moving

I'm not going to rest till I find you

I'm following one step behind you

I'll do what I do to remind you

I'm following one step..

I've been keeping strange hours

I've been saying strange things

I've been places where I should not go

But I catch conversations that feature your name

And my ears and my eyes never close

I've been all of the places where you used to be

And your friends don't remember my face

I don't know if you wonder what's happening to me

I don't vanish that easy, I'll make you believe me

I'm moving...

Did the voice sound familiar on the landing below

Are the footsteps behind you like mine

You're a thought in my head I could never let go

And that thought takes up all of my time

Swallowed up by obsessions that can't be denied

I can't find out what's right and what's wrong

Swallowed up by the whirlpools of colours at night

Oh, please show me no mercy, my reason deserts me

I'm moving...

There's so many people that you knew

To understand everything you do

You're too far ahead now to need them

They live on the streets, you can't see them

The small and the crushed and the helpless

The weak and the cruel and the useless

They're following one step behind you

Alphaville - Big In Japan Lyrics

Alphaville - Big In Japan Video

Winter's cityside, crystal bits of snowflakes

All around my head and in the wind

I had no illusions that I'd ever find

A glimpse of summer's heatwaves in your eyes

You did what you did to me

Now it's history I see

Here's my comeback on the road again

Things will happen while they can

I will wait here for my man tonight

It's easy when you're big in Japan

 

When you're big in Japan, tonight

Big in Japan, be tight

Big in Japan, where the Eastern sea's so blue

Big in Japan, alright

Pay, then I'll sleep by your side

Things are easy when you're big in Japan

When you're big in Japan...

 

Neon on my naked skin

Passing silhouettes

Of strange illuminated mannequins

Shall I stay here at the zoo

Or shall I go and change my point of view

For other ugly scenes

You did what you did to me

Now it's history I see

Things will happen while they can

I will wait here for my man tonight

It's easy when you're big in Japan

 

When you're big in Japan, tonight

Big in Japan, be tight

Big in Japan, oo the Eastern sea's so blue

Big in Japan, alright

Pay, then I'll sleep by your side

Things are easy when you're big in Japan

When you're big in Japan, tonight

Big in Japan, be tight

Big in Japan, oo the Eastern sea's so blue

Big in Japan, alright

Pay, then I'll sleep by your side

Things are easy when you're big in Japan

When you're big in Japan

 

When you're big in Japan, tonight

Big in Japan, be tight

Big in Japan, oo the Eastern sea's so blue

Big in Japan, alright

Pay, then I'll sleep by your side

Things are easy when you're big in Japan

When you're big in Japan

Alphaville - Forever Young Lyrics

Alphaville - Forever Young Video

Let's dance in style, let's dance for a while

Heaven can wait, we're only watching the skies

Hoping for the best but expecting the worst

Are you gonna 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 man

 

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, the mad man

 

Forever young, I want to be forever young

Do you really want to live forever, forever, or never?

Forever young, I want to be forever young

Do you really want to live forever? Forever young

 

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 diamonds are forever

 

So many adventures couldn't happen today

So many songs we forgot to play

So many dreams swinging out of the blue

We'll let them come true

 

Forever young, I want to be forever young

Do you really want to live forever, forever, or never?

Forever young, I want to be forever young

Do you really want to live forever, forever, or never?

 

Forever young, I wanna be forever young

Do you really want to live forever? (Forever)
