Letra Europa & The Pirate Twins de Thomas Dolby original

I was fourteen
She was twelce
Father travelled - hers as well - Europa...
Down the beaches
Hand in hand
Twelfth of never on the sand
Then war took her away
We swore a vow that day:
We'll be the Pirate Twins again, Europa
Oh my country
I'll stand beside you in the rain, Europa
Ta republique...
Nine years after who'd I see
On the cover of a magazine? Europa...
Buy her singles and see all her films
Paste her pictures on my windowsill
But that's noy quite the same - it isn't, is it?
Europa my old friend...
Blew in from the hoveport
She was back in London
I pushed past the papermen
Calling her name
She smiled for the cameras
As a bodyguard grabbed me
Then her eyes were gone for ever
As they drove her away.
