The faint smell of smoke Crept across the town I'm getting weaker just like vampires in the daylight One foot in the grave One pushing the pedal down We'll hide in the alps the alps the alps the alps the alps And our hearts beat on to The rhythm of the windshield wipers Don't turn back 'cause we have come too far Make an escape like a shooting star I'm afraid, afraid of everything Parking lots filled with empty cars Hundreds of things that we can do without There's a pill for everything The road calls me again 'Cause baby I'm a libertine But before I go Would you tie my laces The train's not here 'Cause someone jumped the tracks again We'll head for the alps the alps the alps the alps the alps And our hearts beat on to The rhythm of the windshield wipers Don't turn back 'cause we have come too far Make an escape like a shooting star I'm afraid, afraid of everything Parking lots filled with empty cars Hundreds of things that we can do without There's a pill for everything And our hearts beat on to The rhythm of the windshield wipers And our hearts beat on to The rhythm of the windshield wipers Don't turn back 'cause we have come too far Make an escape like a shooting star I'm afraid, afraid of everything Parking lots filled with empty cars Hundreds of things that we can do without There's a pill for everything
