The Sphinx — текст песни (Amanda Lear)

I wish I could be like the king
who said to his people: my friends
this is now the end
if we loose the battle
we shall live forever.
The people of the sun will remember this day
and give us immortality
long after I`ve gone
Long after the sun.

I want to be like this king
but I can`t stand the pain
my friends
and I keep looking for all the faces I had
before the world began.
I`ve only know desire and my poor soul will burn
into eternal fire
and I can`t even cry -
a sphinx can never cry.

I am standing in the sun
I wish that I could be
a silent sphinx eternally.
I don`t want any past
only want things which cannot last
and I can`t even cry
through God knows how I try -
a sphinx can never cry
and sphinxes never die.

I`m famous or am I infamous ?
It doesen`t matter much any more
phony words of love or painfully truth
I`ve heard it all before
appraisal or critics and even politics

a conversation piece

a woman or a priest

it`s all a point of view.
I am standing in the sun
...
