Ivory Tower - Alphaville

Here is the news from my little hideaway

My sweet Ivory Tower

I’ve sent you songs about so many thing

Mighty moondogs skipping waves

Dolphins playing their lives away

Golden circus girls and pharaohs

Fallen angels, streetside Romeos

Patricia’s park and Anyway

Eternal youth and neverending summer days

Lonely girls, music halls, the mysteries of love

In the event that I don’t return

Please take this message to understand…

In the event…

I am a stranger in a strange land

Welcome, stranger, to the land of the free

Welcome, Carol, to Phantasy

Oh my God, I feel so alone

A million lightyears far from home

It seems to be a tragedy

How can I live in Germany?

Another house is burning down

It’s time to face the cruel reality

This is a game no more

Disasters in the 20th Century

In the event that I don’t return

Please take this message to understand

In the event that I don’t return…
