Someday out of the blue
In a crowded street Or a deserted square I'll turn and I'll see you As if our love were new Someday we can start again Someday soon Here comes the night Here come the memories Lost in your arms Down in the foreign field Not so long ago Seems like eternity Those sweet afternoons Still capture me I still believe I still put faith in us We had it all And watched it slip away Where are we now Not where we want to be Those hot afternoons Still follow me Someday out of the blue Maybe years from now Or tomorrow night I'll turn and I'll see you As if we always knew Someday we will live again Someday soon |

The more I learn, the more I see
The less the world impassions me The hungry heart, the roving eye Have come to rest, do not apply The frantic chase, the crazy ride The thrill has gone, I step aside I'd believe in anything were it not for you Showing me by just existing only this is true I love you, I love you without question, I love you The more I want the more I steal The more I hold the less is real All worldly things I follow blind In hope not faith was paid in kind The line is drawn, the change is made I come to you, I'm not afraid |

There isn't much I haven't shared
With you along the road And through it all there'd always be Tomorrow's episode Suddenly that isn't true There's another avenue Beckoning the great divide Ask no questions, take no side Who's to say who's right or wrong Whose course is braver run Still we are, have always been Will ever be as one What is done has been done for the best Though the mist in my eyes might suggest Just a little confusion about what I'll lose But if I started over I know I would choose The same joy the same sadness each step of the way That fought me and tought me that friends never say Never say goodbye Never say goodbye Never say goodbye Never say goodbye Suddenly that isn't true There's another avenue Beckoning, the great divide I would choose The same joy the same sadness each step of the way That fought me and taught me that friends never say Never say goodbye Never say goodbye Never say goodbye Never say goodbye |

Look out new world here we come
Brave, intrepid and then some Pioneers of maximum Audacity whose resumes Show that we are just the team To live where others merely dream Building up a head of steam On the trail we blaze Changing legend into fact We shall ride into history Turning myth into truth We shall surely gaze On the sweet unfolding Of an antique mystery All will be revealed On the trail we blaze Paradise is close at hand Shangri-la the promised land Seventh heaven on demand Quite unusual nowadays Virgin vistas, undefiled Minds and bodies running wild In the man behold the child On the trail we blaze The trail we blaze Is a road uncharted Through terra incognita to a golden shrine No place for the traveler To be faint-hearted We are part of the sumptuous grand design Changing legend into fact We shall ride into history Turning myth into truth We shall surely gaze on the sweet unfolding Of an antique mystery All will be revealed On the trail we blaze On the trail we blaze |

Oh it's great to see our homeland
Breathe the Iberian atmosphere Just because we are Hispanic Doesn't mean we're oceanic Quite frankly we've had water up to here We've nade waves to last a lifetime We've been saturated, almost drowned We are Spanish not Caribbean We are human, not amphibian We'll seek our fortunes on Spain's solid ground There's no future in the new world Only fools believe the tales Of the gold of El Dorado Only suckers set their sails We have seen the way the tide is turning We see what no sailor can We are in the ball, discerning We're anit-diluvian Sixteenth century man Two very fine examples of Sixteenth, sixteenth century man There are women who are lining Every avenue in every port Now at last we'll get to grips with Things they never equip ships with We have sailed into our last resort There's no goldmine in the new world It's a trick to get recruits On the boat to El Dorado We're returning to our roots We're going back to land locked ladies Cortez never let them board All in all the point we've made is We don't want to go abroad two very fine examples of Sixteenth century man Two terra firma samples of Sixteenth, sixteenth century man |

Often these days
And always these nights I find I'm afraid Of the turbulent heights No matter how crazily No matter how far The moments of tenderness Are those where you are For when you are laughing Like silver, like rain You cool me, you soothe me And love me again For a few perfect hours The world lets me be You know how to calm down Oh oh The panic in me The panic in me The panic in me The panic in me Once in a while I slip back to my past Where I long to remain But the dream does not last In the trials of the present No matter how low You bring me such peace And you won't let me go For when you are laughing Like silver, like rain You cool me, you soothe me And love me again For a few perfect hours The world lets me be You know how to break down Oh oh The panic in me The panic in me The panic in me The panic in me In the trials of the present No matter how low You bring me such peace And you won't let me go Oh don't let me go For when you are laughing Lile silver, like rain You cool me, you soothe me And you love me again For a few perfect hours The world lets me be You know how to break down Oh oh, oh oh The panic in me The panic in me The panic in me The panic in me The panic in me |

I hardly think I'm qualified
To come across all sanctified I just don't cut it with the cherubim The town's already on it's knees Being worshipped is a breeze I barely know the words to any hymn Listen if we don't comply With the locals' wishes I can see is being sacrificed or stuffed Let's be Gods, the perks are great El Dorado on a plate Local feelings should not be rebuffed It's great to be a God Tread where mortals have not trod Be defied when really you're a sham Be an object of devotion Be the subject of psalms It's a terrifying notion All those prayers and thos salaams Any normal man would bridle if he's forced to be an idol And a normal man's exactly what I am All the same it's pretty clear The bastards don't keep much up here They must have zillions under lock and key But Gods can force then to unleash Enough to make us nouveau riche Beyond our wildest dreams so follow me Can't you see I won't relax If religious maniacs Tell me I'm all-powerful and sublime How can I be their belief When I'm lying through my teeth Why don't we just say some other time It's great to be a God But if you get the people's nod Count your blessings, keep them sweet is my advice Be nirvana be salvation Be all things to all men Butter up your congregation Every Sunday score a ten All the alternative is dire Simply frying pan to fire So sign on two new Gods for paradise |

Looking back it makes me shiver
Don't be scared to kick the past Selling lovers down the river Nothing built for speed will last overnight All those years of desolation Pretty boys and damage done Not the way to find salvation Looking after number one Trust me Try rolling with the flow Trust me I've been there don't you know I'm giving you a chance, so take it I got all you want, you'll make it Standing there in front of me, you're naked You can't hide a thing, you've got no choice Trust me Too many years your heart has wandered Scared to make a final move Too many nights those boys have squandered You got nothing left to prove I'm giving you a chance, so take it I got all you want, you'll make it Standing there in front of me, butt naked You can't hide a thing, you've got no choice Trust Me Trust Me Trust Me Trust Me Trust Me |

I see you in the distance and I see us as we are
So nearly so contented but a careless word too far I see you in confusion for a once enchanted boy My heart dances, oh oh, but not for joy I longed to love you better but I swear I don't know how You could have been my future but I had to have it now The things we love completely we are fated to destroy My heart dances, oh oh, but not for joy It's easy to be certain that another's heart will fall Much harder to be certain of your own It moves you, and inspires you then it drives you to the wall And leaves you so excited but alone My heart dances, oh oh My heart dances, oh oh My heart dances, oh oh, but not for joy But not for joy But not for joy But not for joy |

El Dorado, queen of cities
Paradise so wisely hid Overshadows Barcelona Aragon, Castle, Madrid Where on Earth can match your riches Match your people fine and free Why return to old world values This is how the Earth should be El Dorado, El Dorado, El Dorado, El Dorado El Dorado, El Dorado, El Dorado, El Dorado El Dorado, queen of cities Overflowing with excess Every turn exotic, lavish Prescious wonders numberless Lead me now into temptation Surely you would not deny One who's come so far to find you All your blessings save goodbye El Dorado, El Dorado, El Dorado, El Dorado El Dorado, (she could be the death of me) El Dorado, El Dorado, El Dorado El Dorado, golden prison Sheer perfection, sheer despair How can one who knows such splendour Feel the answer lies elsewhere All I know is I must leave her Or she'll be the death of me Put my trust in poorer places Let the queen of cities be El Dorado, (must leave her) El Dorado (queen of cities) El Dorado, (sheer perfection) El Dorado El Dorado, (or she'll be the death of me) El Dorado El Dorado, (queen of cities) El Dorado (Must leave her) El Dorado, (queen of cities) El Dorado, (sheer perfection) El Dorado El Dorado, (or she'll be the death of me) El Dorado El Dorado, (queen of cities) El Dorado |
