Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark Lyrics
"Walking On The Milky Way"

When I was only seventeen
my head was full of brilliant dreams
my heart would call and I would gladly go

At twenty-one the world was mine
and I was yours and you're divine
and nothing else would matter to us so

I don't believe in destiny
I don't believe in love
I don't believe that anything will ever be enough

Oh man you should've seen us on the way to Venus
walking on the milky way it was quite a day (hey hey) hey hey (hey yea)
walking on the big stuff acting like we're real tough
baby we were on our way so what'd you say (hey hey) hey hey (hey yea)

As time goes by reality
destroys your hope and dignity
there's nothing left but shadows on the wall

But just remember who you are
and where you've been you've come so far
and never ever let them see you fall

I don't believe in miracles
I don't believe in truth
I don't believe in anything can re-create your youth

Oh man you should've seen us on the way to Venus
walking on the milky way it was quite a day (hey hey) hey hey (hey yea)
walking on the big stuff acting like we're real tough
baby we were on our way so what d'you say (hey hey) hey hey (hey yea)

Walking on the milky way hey hey hey yea hey hey hey yea
Oh man you should've seen us on the way to Venus
walking on the milky way it was quite a day (hey hey) hey hey (hey yea)
walking on the big stuff acting like we're real tough
baby we were on our way so what d'you say (hey hey) hey hey (hey yea)
Oh man you should've seen us we were on our way to Venus
hey hey (hey hey) hey hey (hey yea)
man you should've seen us we were on our way to Venus
hey hey (hey hey) hey hey (hey yea)
Man you should've seen us we were on our way to Venus
hey hey hey hey yea
