    Lyrics
    Passion take the wind
    and break me from this tie
    we're mortals on the earth
    oh but God's up in the sky
    I haven't got a clue
    I haven't got a thing
    but what I give to you
    is all that I could bring
    I'll give you all my time
    that's everything to me
    you know my only crime
    is this flight of fantasy
    because I've nothing else here for you
    and just because it's easier than the truth
    oh if there's nothing else that I can do
    I'll fly for you
    because I've nothing else here for you
    and just because it's easier than the truth
    oh if there's nothing else that I can do
    I'll fly for you
    Passion take the wind
    and break me from this tie
    we're mortals on the earth
    oh but God's up in the sky
    I haven't got a clue
    I haven't got a thing
    but what I give to you
    is all that I could bring
    because I've nothing else here for you
    and just because it's easier than the truth
    oh if there's nothing else that I can do
    I'll fly for you
    because I've nothing else here for you
    and just because it's easier than the truth
    oh if there's nothing else that I can do
    I'll fly for you
    I'll fly for you
    I'll fly...
    I'm just an average boy
    you're more than an average girl and
    when you sing to me the 'shoo be doos'
    you sing so well
    and don't you know that when I'm under you
    I'm overjoyed
    because I've nothing else here for you
    and just because it's easier than the truth
    oh if there's nothing else that I can do
    I'll fly for you
    because I've nothing else here for you
    and just because it's easier than the truth
    oh if there's nothing else that I can do
    I'll fly for you
    I'll fly for you
    I'll fly for you
    I'll fly

    No manufactured rubbish in 1984. Spandau Ballet was the closest you got to a ‘boy band’ and their music was great. Unlike the 90s and beyond.

    I lost the love of my life to cancer days ago, and this song was the last we listened together. We were so happy this day, so happy, without imagining what was coming.
    I remember when you said “feel the beat”.
    Everything was so fast. I’m devastated.
    “You know, I will always love you.
    We will meet again, let’s not worry “
    Rest In Peace, my love . See you!

    Música da melhor qualidade os anos 80 . Só tinha música top. Não se perdia uma tinha gosto de ouvir. Agora nós dias de hoje está difícil de encontrar músicas assim que marcaram a nossa história e memória. 😍😍😍😍❤❤❤❤👏👏👏👏👏💢💢💢💢💢💢💢💢

    Bravissimi, aver composto ed azzeccato più di una decina di brani di grande bellezza è notevole, periodi d'oro e anche Epoca d'oro ! Questa ottimo sound mi fa venire in mente persino la bravissima Sade. Capolavoro sono Trough the barricades, true, How many lies e altra ancora.
