Romance '83

Staring at the images on my TV set

Switching channels, haven't found the right station yet

What I need is Romance '83

Try to fix the tuning on my radio

Getting up, I trip over the remote control

What I need is Romance '83

I thought that love and kindness were the things we all need

A bit of sensitivity

Just living life simple was the thing to believe in

I don't really know, really know anymore

Sharing all the human feelings deep inside

Instead we hide behind machines

I really wonder if there can ever be a place

For a little, a little bit of Romance '83

Input, output, microprocessor delay

VCI, VCA, modulation for decay

DIN sync into control

The invert mode for stereo

Set mode channels two selectors

Audio schematic vectors

You're busy when I call you up on the telephone

You're playing those Atari games and I'm here alone

What I need is Romance '83

Sometimes it makes me think if I can ever be free

Life is no longer a challenge and there's no mystery

What I need is Romance '83

I look back on a time when the world was so young

A beautiful ecology

A flowing river and a bright beautiful sun was enough

Now I don't really know anymore

Satisfied with only the land and the trees

Instead we mass-produce machines

I really wonder if there can ever be a place

For a little, a little bit of Romance '83

I look back on a time when the world was so young

A beautiful ecology

I really wonder if there can ever be a place

For a little, a little bit of Romance '84

What I need is Romance '84
