It was starting to rain on the night
That they first decided
It was blinding with snow on the night
That they ran away
They were found in the dark
But they never returned
Just like somebody slammed the door
Bang

She was meant to be wild
He was nearly a child
But they only could feel each other
They were paper and fire
Angel and liar, the Devil of one another
Then they were thrown to the ground
With a terrible sound
Just like somebody broke a heart

Rock 'n' roll children
Alone again
Rock 'n' roll children
Without a friend
But they got rock 'n' roll

It was starting to rain on the night
That they cried forever
It was blinding with snow on the night
That they screamed goodbye
They were lost in the dark
And they never returned
Just like somebody slammed the door
Our rock 'n' roll children
Alone again
Rock 'n' roll children
Without a friend
Poor rock 'n' roll children
Caught up in the spinning wheel
Poor rock 'n' roll children
Alone again

It was starting to rain on the night
That they ran
It was blinding with snow on the night
We let them go

Poor rock 'n' roll children
Children, rock 'n' roll children
Children of the night
Poor rock 'n' roll children
Rock 'n' roll
Poor children, lost poor souls
Rock 'n' roll children
Poor rock 'n' roll children
Rock 'n' roll
Rock 'n' roll children
