Soul Years Lyrics - Eurythmics

Oh stick around and take it in 

The more you see the closer we'll be 

I visualize us falling from the towers of the 20th century 

Where people are in magazines and video their sleeping casually 

Where a cast of iron children are contemplating anarchy 

I'm talking soul years 

I'm talking about the soul years 

I'm talking soul years 

The seed that fell on stoned ground has risen now 

And needs to be reused 

And patients with their minds undone 

Will need to have their living years decreased 

The telephones are screaming 

As the whole metallic structure starts to burn 

Which goes to show the more you know 

The more you still have to learn 

I'm talking soul years 

Rm talking about the soul years 

I'm taking soul years 

I'm talking about the soul years 

Repeat chorus 

The missionaries have all gone 

The patent leather nuns have come to sing 

The matadors are drowned in blood 

The bull has won I knew he would be king 

The disappointed drunken hordes 

Are ravaging the daughters of the state 

Another fitting end to a beautiful and sunny summer day 

I'm talking soul years 

I'm talking about the soul years 

I'm taking soul years 

I'm talking about the soul years
