by starlight i'll kiss you
and promise to be your one and only
i'll make you feel happy
and leave you to be lost in mine
and where will we go, what will we do?
soon said i, will know
dead eyes, are you just like me?
cause her eyes were as vacant as the seas
dead eyes, are you just like me?
and all along, we knew we'd carry on
just to belong
by starlight i know you
as lovely as a wish granted true
my life has been empty, my life has been untrue
and does she really know, who i really am?
does she really know me at last
dead eyes, are you just like me?we're walking contradictions
and toothless we try to bite
we live up to our standards
though we know they ain't right
fools we always stand up to fight when nothing's left to win
we draw the shades when we're bothered
ignorance is our twin
We've got our fancy but empty preconceived life
instance of how we wondered why we're seldom satisfied
but only the fools will applaud this strange self-deception
but only the fools will believe in resurrection of ideals in purest form
they're the first who have claimed their piece
and then the first who will ask for release
why do we sanction their means with a nod
boasting the absolute freedom of thought
we are fools
we hide with pride behind tolerant words
neglecting the fact that we've been lured
we are fools
we are fools
but only the fools will applaud this strange self-deception
but only the fools will believe in resurrection of ideals in purest form
they're the first who have claimed their piece
and then the first who will ask for release
