Europe

Songwriter: Joey Tempest

I can tell just by the look in your eyes
That the love is gone that I once took

So much has changed in the way you live
I bet there's nothing left that you could ever give

The words of a madman have spoken
I guess I'm not the only one
The heart of a sad man is broken
Eyes, lyin' eyes
You can fool anyone without disguise
Eyes, lyin' eyes
Oh yeah, you look as cold as ice

It's in your blood
It floats in your veins
I've sacrificed myself
But all I feel is pain
You've done me wrong
You've been so bad
It's the last time a battle is lost
When I'm the one who's sad

The words of a madman have spoken
I guess I'm not the only one
The heart of a sad man is broken
Eyes, lyin' eyes
You can fool anyone without disguise
Eyes, lyin' eyes
Oh yeah, you look as cold as ice

I wish you'd die
I wish you'd break down and cry
I wish you'd move
And then I know I'll be satisfied

Can't you see, I'm on the edge
I can't look down
It is me who's lost and never found

Europe is a Swedish rock band formed in Upplands Väsby, Sweden in 1979, by frontman Joey Tempest, guitarist John Norum, bassist Peter Olsson, and drummer Tony Reno. They obtained a major breakthrough in Sweden in 1982 by winning the televised competition “Rock-SM” (Swedish Rock Championships): it was the first time this competition was held, and Europe became a larger success than the competition itself.
