Europa
Song taken from Europa (2009). Musicvideo by Fjodor Donderer.
EUROPA
The borders are only lines in the sand,
the borders are divided by land
and invented by man
The birds all fly high in the sky
but the birds have never heard
About Europe, about you
About Europe
The girls with bright eyes
rides away on dreams of lies,
into Europe
The sun has always been setting in the west,
so the sun must know where the setting is the best
What a mothers nightmares can't bear
a cruel world does on it's own
She said she'd call when she's there
must be something wrong with the phone
The phones all over Europe
Is the future any brighter?
Is the darkness any lighter in Europe?
I met Joy in London, she used to love to sing
but now she's not singing about anything
"Gotta work to make your way,
better work if you wanna stay"
So now she's working for you, for Europe
No matter how many times that story's been told,
how history repeats itself
and some stories never grow old
and they call her
Europe
