europa and the pirate twins

okay

i was fourteen

she was twelve

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

europa

i'll walk beside you in the rain

europa

ta republique

europa

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 not quite the same - it isn't

is it?

europa

my old friend

we'll be the pirate twins again

europa

oh my country

my country

europa!

i'll walk beside you in the rain

europa

ta republique

europa

blew in from the hoverport

she was back in london

pushed past the papermen

calling her name

she smiled for the cameras

as the bodyguard grabbed me

her eyes were gone forever

as they drove her away

we'll be the pirate twins again

europa

oh my country

europa

i'll walk beside you in the rain

europa

ta republique

europa

we'll be the pirate twins again

europa

oh my country

look at my country now!

i'll stand beside you in the rain

europa

ta republique

europa

down in some bar along the strand

europa

oh my country

europa

i'll walk beside you in the rain

europa

ta republique.
