Alphaville - Mercury Girl Lyrics
Shes staying around or else shes goin awayIt could be forever or it might be a dayOr may be forever I call her a mercury girlShes building me up & then shes knocking me downLike a factory chimney in a northern townAnd I am demolished I call her a mercury girlShe never sees me till the sun goes downLives in a secret worldSays: her career is in another townLife with a mercury girlOne day once when Ive got some timeI try to hold her but she wouldnt be mineShe slipped through my fingers & I missed the mercury girlShe came back to me with her mocking eyesShe told me she loved me but it could have been liesAnd life can be up & down, life with a mercury girlLife can be up & down, life with a mercury girlOne day once when Ive got some timeI try to hold her but she wouldnt be mineShe slipped through my fingers & I missed the mercury girlAnd life can be up & down, life with a mercury girlLife can be up & down, life with a mercury girl
