Ivory Tower Songtext
von Alphaville

Here is the news
From my little hideaway
My sweet Ivory Tower
I′ve sent you songs about so many things

Mighty moon dogs skipping waves
Dolphins playing their lives away
Golden circus girls and pharaohs
Fallen angels, street side Romeos
Patricia's park and Anyway
Eternal youth and never ending 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 fantasy


Oh my God, I feel so alone
A million light years 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
Please take this message to understand
In the event that I don′t return
Please take this message to understand
In the event that I don't return
In the event that I don′t return
