Alphaville( 阿爾發村合唱團 ) The Breathtaking Blue歌詞
1.Anyway

Welcome
Or should I say good bye?
It's a question how close we are apart
Are you goin' back home
after this show
Or leaving for the wild
And when you're passing the wardrobe
What will you take?
Your worn out hat of hopes
Or someone else's attractive furs to make
it through
The playgrounds of your life?
All is shown
All shut down
All the world is gone
All the pieces came together
Finally but not too late
All is shown
All shut down
All the world is gone
Just pretend that I'm not there
Make your choice
I'll love you anyway
I'll love you anyway
Just make your choice
Pretend that I'm not there
All the world is gone
All the world is gone
Just take it
Just take it
And you'll make it
Alright, yeah
Ride on
Ride on
All is shown
All shut down
All the world is gone
All the pieces came together
Finally but not too late
All is shown
All shut down
All the world is gone
Just pretend that I'm not there
Make your choice
I'll love you anyway

2.Ariana

Driving down the streets, listening to the
radio, what do we get
Ariana
Reading the papers and the news,
they scream, haven't you heard
Ariana
She rules the business, she's such a restless
genuine juvenile
Everyone knows, wherever she goes
She got chique, she got class,
she got style
Arianamaniacs rule the world,
haven't you heard
Arianamaniacs set the scenes on fire, fire
We're goin' nutz for Ariana,
We're goin' carrazy for her
Everything glows, wherever she goes
She got sex from her lips to her toes
All the Casanovas and the zombies agree
With the hummingbirds and the beasts
from the seas
Ariana's a real sensation, when will she
be on the screen
Arianamaniacs rule the world,
haven't you heard
Arianamaniacs set the scenes on fire, fire

3.For A Million

Oh I love to dance
Under an alien sun
Along the dunes with you
I kiss you in the sand
We give so that we live
Beside the sleepy snakes
They dream of you and me
When will they ever end
For a million years they dream
For a million years they dream
And the fog conceals and hides
and eats our souls
Before they open up their eyes again
How far we'll be
Remember me
Won't stop lovin' you
Although it seems to be
Our time is running out
I'm leaving you behind
No matter what they say
We'd never meet again
Our love is bigger than our lives
For a million years they dream
For a million years they dream
And the fog conceals and hides
and eats our souls
Before they open up their eyes again
How far we'll be
How far we'll be
And we know that yesterday
The moon was brown
And that today it is black
And that tomorrow it is red
And we know that when we go to the sun
The moon comes along
(Hello there!)
And the cows in the pasture graze
And we know that we know what we know
Is it truth?

4.Heaven Or Hell

Once
I awoke
A shadow of your smile had crossed
my mind
How could I know this ws your
last Good-Bye
That's slipping through the Windmills
of the night
'You never understand when she's
talking to you, little Boy
You never understand when she's
talking to you
She's too far away...'
Is it Heaven or Hell
We're drifting in the wake of our dreams
And the world is a clown who cries
And no one can tell, is he real
Once
I cried
Whenever I awoke without you
A stranger in the thunder of the dark
I'm praying to the sun to shine tonight
'You never understand when she's talking
to you, mon Amour
You never understand when she's
talking to you
She's too far away...'
Is it Heaven or Hell
We're drifting in the wake of our dreams
And the world is a clown who cries
And no one can tell, is he real

5.Middle Of The Riddle

At the edge of the moon there's
a lonely man
And he blows on his horn as
strong as he can
And the girl at the bar wipoes the breath
of winter away with a smile of her face
And a little black dog barks along
with a loon
Is this my appointment or did I came
too soon
Got a strange invitation for teatime 'twas
given by somebody
I can't recall
It's the middle of the riddle
It's not very serious
It's nothing but a big surprise
And the president's horse is a rabbit
of course
That is livin' in a big boy's mind
Livin' in a big boy's mind
And I skate on a knife on a wire
That is strung from this song
to a distant shore
And then I say
Intuition is just another phase of chance
While we're walking the old
pyramid's floors
(Little pharaoh's)
And the little black dog
Here it comes again
He's a true companion in a foreign land
On a quest for the valley of boojums and birthdays
And phone calls I cannot recall
It's the middle of the riddle
It's not very serious
It's nothing but a big surprise
And the president's horse is a rabbit
of course
That is livin' in a big boy's mind
We're livin' in a big boy's mind
Livin' in a big boy's mind
All of man shan't talk to the one
at the helm
And the man at the helm shall talk to no
one at all (Rule forty-two)
And a horse is a rabbit of course
(Yes indeed)
Yes, a horse is a rabbit of course

6.Romeos

There's a boy with a little black dog
There's a boy with a little black dog
And he looks at his watch for a while
And the falling years wash away
his make up
And the falling years wash away
his make up
Just like rain on the fading snow
He's a lonesome streetside Romeo
You can see him from your window tonite
This world's a divided place you know
He's awaiting you
All the boys are locked in a fortress
All the girls are locked in a fortress
Just because it's a crime it could be
It could be
Flesh and blood in iron and steel
Flesh and blood in iron and steel
Just because it's a crime it could be
It could be
We're all lonesome streetside Romeos
You can see us from your window tonite
This world's a divided place you know
We're awaiting you
We're all lonesome streetside Romeos
This world's a divided place you know
We're awaiting you, we're awaiting you
We all change our points of view,
sometimes
You can see us from your window, tonite
We're awaiting you
Awaiting you

7.She Fades Away

She's like a frostfern in my head
The lamplight burns my eyes and then
she fades away
My pencil's frozen in my hand
And the letter I can't write
It seems to be a desert without end
I woke up late at night
She called me up
Then disappeared
And the echo of her voice filled the
empty places in my dreams
With the silent tide
She fades away
Again
She fades away
She fades away again
Don't go now
Please, stay
My senses are cruising through a void
As pale reflections play on the
deserted roads
I hear the humming of machines
A distant sound like thunder crawling
through the void
There's no escape
I know
I run around in circles without end
And the more the memory grows
Dissolving from reality
With the silent tide
She fades away
Again
She fades away
She fades away again
Don't go now
Please, stay
Don't make me cry
This time I've got to learn
I know, she won't return
