I was fourteen She Was Twelve Father travelled - 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 stand beside you in the rain, Europa Ta republique... 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 windowsill 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. Europa I'll stand beside you in the rain Europa Ta republique... Blew in from the hoverport She was back in London Pushed past the papermen Calling her name She smiled for the cameras As a bodyguard grabbed me Then here eyes were gone forever As they drove her away... We'll be the Pirate Twins again, Europa Oh my country, Europa I'll stand beside you in the rain Europa Ta republique ...
