Testo The Sphinx - Amanda Lear
Testo della canzone The Sphinx (Amanda Lear), tratta dall'album Queen Of China-Town
I wish I could be like the king
Who said to his people, "My friends
This is now the end
If we lose this battle, we shall live forever
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 known 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 (I can't even cry)
Though God knows how I try
A sphinx can never cry
And sphinxes never die
I'm famous or am I infamous?
It doesn't matter much anymore
Phony words of love or painful truths
I've heard it all before
Appraisal or critics or even politics
A conversation piece
A woman or a priest
It's all a point of view
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 (and I can't even cry)
'Cause sphinxes never cry
'Cause sphinxes cannot die
A sphinx can never cry
