Duran Duran

Wise on a birthday party

in a world

full of surprising fireworks

and sudden silence

Lies on a stranger's bed

the new day breaks

like a speeding train

on an old friend

ever expected,

but never knocking

Holding your own

in a battered car

All night parties

cocktail bars

and smile

when the butterfly escapes

the killing jar

Sure eyes awake

before the dancing is over

Wise or naked in

Secret Oktober

Freefall

on a windy morning shore

nothing but a fading track

of footsteps, to prove

that you'd ever been there

Spoken

on a cotton cloud

like the sound of gunshot

taken by the wind

and lost in distant thunder

Racing

on a shining plane

Tomorrow won't be content

to watch as the lightning

plays along the wires,

and you'll wonder...

Sure eyes awake

before the dancing is over

Wise or naked in

Secret Oktober

Sure eyes awake

before the dancing is over

Wise or naked in

Secret Oktober
