Wind of Change
by Scorpions

"Follow the Moskva
Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of
change
An August summer night
Soldiers passing by
Listening to the wind of
change
The world is closing in
Did you ever think
That we could be so
close, like brothers
The future's in the air
Can feel it everywhere
Blowing with the wind of
change
Take me to the magic of
the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of
tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change
Walking down the street
Distant memories
Are buried in the past,
forever
I follow the Moskva
Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of
change
Take me to the magic of
the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of
tomorrow share their
dreams
With you and me
Take me to the magic of
the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of
tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change
The wind of change
Blows straight into the
face of time
Like a storm wind that will
ring the freedom bell
For peace of mind
Let your balalaika sing
What my guitar wants to
say
Take me to the magic of
the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of
tomorrow share their
dreams
With you and me
Take me to the magic of
the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of
tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change
