Follow me way back in time

To my post war phantom empire

Freezing and homeless

In the cold winter night

Hanging out in a tubeway station

With no place to go

Full of dreams and illusions

Waiting for the end of the night

Then I saw your face all over the place

A porn-supermarket ad, a strange attractor

A moment I will never ever forget

How could I know this was my flight to Venus

When I bought my underground ticket?

That night I waved good-bye to life

With the european narcotics kings

And their wifes

In simmering anticipation

She looked like the queen of babylon

A girl of the underworld

Soft skin on black silk

Bathed in cold neon light

An icon at the wall of a cathedral

A b-girl rhapsody

A date with desaster

Between the devil and the deep blue

Forbidden paradise when worlds collide

In this city by night

I was on a most fantastic journey

How could I know this was my flight to Venus

When I bought my underground ticket?

That night I waved good-bye to life

With the european narcotics kings

And their wifes

In simmering anticipation

It's a glittering secret

A magic spell

The pale girls they know

But they, they never will tell

I wish we were movie stars

Just you and me

And Saturday night, Saturday night

Became eternity

How could I know this was my flight

How could I know this was my flight

How could I know this was my flight

How could I know this was my flight to Venus

When I bought my underground ticket?

That night I waved good-bye to life

With the european narcotics kings

And their wifes

In simmering anticipation
