Songtext von Unity Mitford

Arm in arm on the boulevard Speaking the language that only we know I'll brush an eyelash from your cheek I know they'll write books about you And oh! the crowds and the joyful faces These people are just backdrop to us You and I don't even think like they do You and I we're like a different species Like Romeo and Juliet In a bunker, shot through the head Everything will be beautiful Everything will be beautiful Affairs of state and of the heart I love it when you speak so passionately We understand how music works You understand what you mean to me And oh! the indescribable beauty Of a million hands raised to salute you Like poppies lean when winds caress them Cut flowers pressed to solemn duty Like Romeo and Juliet In a bunker, shot through the head Everything will be beautiful Everything will be beautiful This epoch, this century, These people and this infamy Where once there was a single summer That never seemed to turn.
