Forever Young

Forever Young es una maravillosa canción, una joya del pop de todos los tiempos de la banda alemana Alphaville que aparece dentro de su álbum de 1984 que lleva el mismo título que la canción. A lo largo de los años, la propia banda ha sacado otras versiones y remixes del tema que sin ninguna duda, es uno de los más conocidos de su repertorio y un auténtico exitazo a nivel internacional.

No sé muy bien porque pero la canción, que a pesar del tiempo pasado sigue sonando actual y contemporánea, me pone bastante melancólica y triste cada vez que la escucho... aún así, me encanta escucharla, y, es sin duda, una de mis canciones favoritas.

Let's dance in style, let's dance for a while

Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies

Hoping for the best but expecting the worst

Are you going to drop the bomb or not?

Let us die young or let us live forever

We don't have the power but we never say never

Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip

The music's for the sad men

Can you imagine when this race is won

Turn our golden faces into the Sun

Praising our leaders we're getting in tune

The music's played by the mad men

Forever young, I want to be forever young

Do you really want to live forever?

Forever, and ever

Forever young, I want to be forever young

Do you really want to live forever?

Forever young

Some are like water, some are like the heat

Some are a melody and some are the beat

Sooner or later they all will be gone

Why don't they stay young

It's so hard to get old without a cause

I don't want to perish like a fading horse

Youth's like diamonds in the Sun

And diamonds are forever

So many adventures couldn't happen today

So many songs we forgot to play

So many dreams swinging out of the blue

We let them come true

Forever young, I want to be forever young

Do you really want to live forever?

Forever, and ever

Forever young, I want to be forever young

Do you really want to live forever?

Forever, and ever

Forever young, I wanna be forever young

Do you really want to live forever?
