|
He went looking for Europe, took love in his hand |
|
With eyes of sunlight, like burning sand |
|
Went to the west, rode to the east |
|
Heard of life and honour, looked into the eyes of the beast |
|
Stood in a city, in the gold house of whores |
|
Said: "I'm looking for Europe", then you're looking for war |
|
Sat on the throne of Arthur, held Boudica's sword |
|
Kissed the flags of the great, beneath the towers so tall |
|
Climbed up the hillside, where the eagle still flies |
|
Said: "I'm looking for Europe", well be ready to cry |
|
He walked to the forest, to the lair of the wolf |
|
Said: "I'm looking for Europe, I'll tell you truth." |
|
Some find it in a flag, some in the beat of a drum |
|
Some with a book, and some with a gun |
|
Some in a kiss, and some on the march |
|
But if you're looking for Europe, best look in your heart |
