Most of AV's songs, if not all, have their lyrics listed in their Moonbase, www.alphaville.de.

It's going to be a fine listening comprehension exercise.

Waiting for the CD... I did my best.
PHANTOMS There's so many dreams undone Lost forever more Here we are just counting sheep Eyes transfixed on monitors We are sleeping strangely rapted In shifting sands of irreality I'ts [] to see But what's behind that blinding light All the Pushing down in front us A million everyday And what are we supposed to do Tell me everything We'll be all right All these sleeping sounds tonite All the people walking by Seem to need an answer There's something missing Don't know why How the hell did we get here But when I look around I understand And everything comes clear to me It's [] to see Rising and falling with the tide |

What you hear on the CD:
There's so many dreams undone Lost forever more Here we are just counting sheep Eyes transfixed on monitors We are sleepers strangely rapt In shifting sands of irreality And it's plain to see But what's behind that blinding light All the truths and all the lies pushing down upon us A million choices everyday What are we supposed to do Tell me everything will be all right And I'll be sleeping sound tonight All the people walking by seem to need an answer Something's missing, don't know why How the hell did we get here? But when I look around, I understand And everything comes clear to me It's plain to see Rising and falling with the tide ...is not the same as it is in the booklet ;-)

Thank you Kaz ;)
Same exercice for the next one, I transcripted what I could : HEAVEN ON EARTH You know that love's the answer The greatest drooling force That carries you forever Beyong the father God Will we ever learn Lessons of the world Instead repeating History without a care How much we heard Sometimes it seems that we would never ever understand The things we got to do Dance like no-one is watching Love like you'll never be hurt The things we got to do And sing like no one is listening And live like it's your last day on Earth The things we got to do And nothing lasts forever It does not seem it's cheap It's only the beginning Of something rather deep We're trying to survive We're always on the run The sky is never blue But the sun is long, long gone A stranger at the corner Pretending to be me Could it really be |

You know that love's the answer; the greatest ruling force
That carries you forever beyond the farthest cause Oh, will we ever learn the lessons of the world Instead repeating history without a care how much we hurt Sometimes it seems that we will never ever understand The things we got to do Dance like no-one is watching Love like you'll never be hurt The things we got to do Sing like no-one is listening And live like it's your last day on Earth The things we got to do If nothing lasts forever that doesn't mean it's cheap It's only the beginning of something rather deep We're trying to survive; we're always on the run The sky's in ever blue but the sun is long, long gone A stranger at the corner pretending to be me Could it really be? The chorus I know very well... [smile2] The reason the song is called Heaven On Earth is because the original quote that the chorus comes from says, "Live like it's heaven on Earth" and not what it says in the song...

Thanks for proofreading Kaz !
I did not check the sense of one word, so you certainly laughted at "drooling force", it's completely nonsense ... |
