Europa and the Pirate Twins

Lyrics

Ok
 I was fourteen, she was twelve
 Father travelled, her's 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 stand beside you in the rain, Europa
 Ta république... 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, oh my country, Europa
 I'll walk beside you in the rain, Europa
 Ta république... 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 république... 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 république... Europa
 Down in some bar along the Strand, Europa
 Oh my country, Europa
 I'll walk beside you in the rain, Europa
 Ta république... Europa
