new europeans

Singer:ultravox

in a quiet street washed by the rain the room within the home

a lonely man sits cheek to cheek with unique designs in chrome

the mellow years have long gone by

but now he sits alone

he has a brand new radio

but never turns it on

new europeans

young europeans

new europeans

a photograph of lovers lost lies pressed in magazines

her eyes belong to a thousand girls

she's the wife who's never seen

their educated son has left in search of borrowed dreams

his television's in his bed

he's frozen to the screen

on a crowded beach washed by the sun he puts his headphones on

his modern world revolves around the synthesizer's song

full of future thoughts and thrills

his senses slip away

he's a european legacy

a culture for today
