Walking On The Milky Way by Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD)

When I was only seventeen
My head was full of brilliant dreams
My heart would call and I would gladly go

At twenty-one, the world was mine
And I was yours and you're divine
And nothing else would matter to us so

I don't believe in destiny
I don't believe in love
I don't believe that anything will ever be enough

Man, you should have seen us
On the way to Venus
Walking on the milky way
It was quite a day, hey, hey

Walking on the big stuff
Acting like we're real tough
Baby, we were on our way
So what do you say? Hey, hey

As time goes by, reality
Destroys your hope and dignity
There's nothing left but shadows on the wall

But just remember who you are
And where you've been you've come so far
And never ever let them see you fall

I don't believe in miracles
I don't believe in truth
I don't believe that anything can recreate your youth

Man, you should have seen us
On the way to Venus
Walking on the milky way
It was quite a day, hey, hey

Walking on the big stuff
Acting like we're real tough
Baby, we were on our way
So what do you say? Hey, hey

Man, you should have seen us
On the way to Venus
Walking on the milky way
It was quite a day, hey, hey

Walking on the big stuff
Acting like we're real tough
Baby we were on our way
So what do you say? Hey, hey

Man, it's you to seen us this way, we runaway with you
Man, it's you to seen us this way, we runaway with you
Man, it's you to seen us this way, we runaway with you
