Alphaville

Jerusalem

Standing on the empty bridge,
watching river's waves go by,
feeling mellow, lighting a cigarette,
silver moon floats through the night.
Eris, princess of the isles,
disperse your sparkling trace.
Lead me on to the house of love,
where the God may turn his eyes.

To Jerusalem we pray,
it's time to meet you there.
Let's take love to Jerusalem,
oh yeah, let's take love.

You might be the one I'm waiting for,
I think we've met somewhere for sure.
Chasing shadows leaves you feeling blue,
this situation needs a cure.
New assassins, new messiahs,
keepers of the balanced law,
strangest lovers of the fire,
which ignites the halo of our souls.

To Jerusalem we pray,
it's time to meet you there.
Let's take love to Jerusalem,
Oh yeah, let's take love.

Big yellow cadillac, carry me back home,
On glory roads of pure delight,
we head out for the stars...
