Warning signs

Nena (DEU)


I can read the warning signs 
There's no hunger in your eyes 
Like a stranger makin' love 
It's not me you're dreamin' of 

It's written on your face 
It's tied up in your body language 

Your sentences are broke 
Don't answer when you're spoken to 
Peculiar strain in your voice 
Is not ringin' true 

Holdin' a secret for ransom 
Underneath your disguise 
(You are unravelling right before my eyes) 
And I can taste it on your lips 
You've betrayed me with a judas' kiss 

Your love's no longer runnin' through my veins 
Your temperature's falling again 
(I can read the warning signs) 
There's no hunger in your eyes 
(Icecold hands upon my skin) 
Nu fire burnin' from within 
(Like a stranger makin' love) 
No desire runnin' through your veins 
(It's not me you're dreamin' of) 
I wanna know her name 

Don't discard me like a magazine on a shelf 
Don't flatter me with words 
You'd rather say to someone else 
Don't bury me alive 
Don't sentence me for life 

(I'm unravelling right before your eyes) 
And I can taste her on your lips 
You've betrayed me with a judas' kiss 
Your love's no longer runnin' through my veins 
Your temperature's falling again 

It's written on your face 
It's tied up in your body language 

(I can read the warning signs) 
There's no hunger in your eyes 
(Icecold hands upon my skin) 
No fire burnin' from within 
(Like a stranger makin' love) 
No desire runnin' through your veins 
(It's not me you're dreamin' of) 
I wanna know her name 

I can taste it on your lips 
Betrayed me with a judas' kiss 
I can read, I can read the warning signs 

Icecold hands, Icecold hands upon my skin 
All tied up in your body language 
I can read the warning signs, warning signs
