Pet Shop Boys - Will-O-The-Wisp

I see you after many years
on an elevated train
rattling above the streets of a city
where men don't wait in vain
I think, my, you may have changed
but you're such a handsome thing
Do you still hang around that old arcade
to see what luck will bring?

(Will-o-the-wisp)
The U1 is such a party train
(Will-o-the-wisp)
from Uhland to Warschauerstraße
(Will-o-the-wisp)
emerging from below past Nollendorfplatz
(Will-o-the-wisp)
in search of love and laughter
(Will-o-the-wisp)

You were always such a free spirit
A bright-eyed eager chap
A will-o-the-wisp
and charming with it
in your battered leather cap
(Will-o-the-wisp)

But maybe you've gone respectable
with a wife and job and all that
working for the local government
and living in a rented flat?

(Will-o-the-wisp)
The U1 is such a party train
(Will-o-the-wisp)
from Uhland to Warschauerstraße
(Will-o-the-wisp)
emerging from below past Nollendorfplatz
(Will-o-the-wisp)
in search of love and laughter
(Will-o-the-wisp)

And you my former will-o-the-wisp
Will you recognise me today?
Give me a smile for old time's sake
before you run away

(Will-o-the-wisp)
You were always such a free spirit
(Will-o-the-wisp)
Aren’t you getting bored?
(Will-o-the-wisp)
A will-o-the-wisp
and charming with it
(Will-o-the-wisp)
who loved to be adored
(Will-o-the-wisp)
The U1 is such a party train
(Will-o-the-wisp)
from Uhland to Warschauerstraße
(Will-o-the-wisp)
emerging from below past Nollendorfplatz
(Will-o-the-wisp)
in search of love and laughter
(Will-o-the-wisp)
You were always such a free spirit
(Will-o-the-wisp)
who came and went so much
(Will-o-the-wisp)
A will-o-the-wisp
and charming with it
I'm still longing for your touch
(Will-o-the-wisp)
