You know it all too well
You and I, we walked through hell
And back from the waves of the sea of pain
We danced in the pouring rain
But saner mornings found us aghast
Musing upon the days of our past

Take it or leave it - that´s the way that we were
Living it up like fallen angels on Earth
Take it or leave it - you´d better believe
A new star will shine, when we finally leave

We feared no enemy
And peace was meant to be
Forever and for evermore
The world seemed a place worth fighting for
But saner evenings found us in doubt
What is it that we´re all about?

Take it or leave it - that´s the way that we were
Living it up like fallen angels on Earth
Take it or leave it - and you´d better believe
A new star will shine, when we finally leave

Take it or leave it - that´s the way that we were
Living it up like fallen angels on Earth
Take it or leave it - and you´d better believe
A new star will shine, when we finally leave

Take it or leave it - you´d better believe me
Take it or leave it - that´s the way, that´s the way that we were

Take it or leave it - that´s the way that we were
Living it up like fallen angels on Earth
Take it or leave it - and you´d better believe
A new star will shine, when we finally leave

Take it or leave it - that´s the way that we were
Living it up like fallen angels on Earth
Take it or leave it - and you´d better believe
A new star will shine, when we finally leave

Take it or leave it - that´s the way that we were
Living it up like fallen angels on Earth
Take it or leave it - and you´d better believe
A new star will shine, when we finally leave
