The borders are only lines in the sand
The borders are divided by land
And invented by men
The birds all fly high in the sky
But the birds have never heard
About Europe
About you, about Europe
About Europe
About you, about Europe

The girls with bright eyes ride away on dreams of lies
Into Europe
The sun has always been setting in the west
So the sun must know where the setting is the best

What mother’s nightmares can’t bear
A cruel world does on its own
She said she’d call once she’s there
Must be something wrong with the phone?
The phones all over Europe
In E.U., in Europe
In Europe, E.U., in Europe

Is the future any brighter?
Is the darkness any lighter in Europe?
Is the future any brighter?
Is the darkness any lighter in Europe?
I met Joy in London, she used to love to sing
But now she’s not singing about anything
You gotta work to make your way
You better work, if you wanna stay
So now she’s working for you
Now she’s working for you, for Europe

No matter how many times that story has been told
How history repeats itself and some stories never grow old
(And they call her Europe)

Is the future any brighter?
Is the darkness any lighter in Europe?
Is the future any brighter?
Is the darkness any lighter in Europe?
