Tragedy Songtext
von Keats

I′d like to say I know you
And I wonder why
After all these years you hide yourself from me
The passion and the pain that's still deep inside of you
Are calling you once again,
Taking you out of my life.

Tragedy,
Something is in the air tonight.
Tragedy,
It′s reaching out for you.
There's nothing you can do.

Oh tragedy,
It's in your eyes,
On the streets,
A lonely child
Plays for keeps
For just a while.


The city lights have drawn you back to try again.
Like a child you always play too close to fire.
There′s something in the danger there that
You can′t defy.
Though you've been burnt before,
You′ll never learn to turn away.

Tragedy,
Something is in the air tonight.
Tragedy,
It's reaching out for you.
There′s nothing you can do.

Oh tragedy,
You can't disguise.
Running free,
Running wild.
Oh tragedy,
It′s in your eyes!

Tragedy,
It's reaching out for you.
There's nothing you can do.
Oh tragedy,
It′s in your eyes!


On the streets,
A lonely child
Plays for keeps
For just a while.
Oh tragedy,
It′s in your eyes!
