Europa and the Pirate Twins Dolby, Thomas I was fourteen, she was twelve Father traveled, hers 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 walk 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 window sill 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)
