The Memory Remains

Fortune, fame
Mirror vain
Gone insane
But the memory remains
Heavy rings on fingers wave
Another star denies the grave
See the nowhere crowd, cry the nowhere tears of honor
Like twisted vines that grow
That hide and swallow mansions whole
And dim the light
Of an already faded prima donna
Fortune, fame
Mirror vain
Gone insane...
Fortune, fame
Mirror vain
Gone insane...
But the memory remains
Heavy rings hold cigarettes
Up to lips that time forgets
While the hollywood sun sets behind your back
And can't the band play on?
Just listen, they play my song
Ash to ash
Dust to dust
Fade to black
Fortune, fame
Mirror vain
Gone insane...
Fortune, fame
Mirror vain
Gone insane...
Dance little tin goddess
"ya ya" part
Drift away
Fade away
Little tin goddess
Ash to ash
Dust to dust
Fade to black
Fortune, fame
Mirror vain
Gone insane...
Fortune, fame
Mirror vain
Gone insane...
But the memory remains
Ash to ash
Dust to dust
Fade to black...
But the memory remains
Yeah
Faded prima donna yeah, yeah
(Solo)
Dance little tin goddess dance
"ya ya" part
Devil's dance

Yeah, i feel you too
Feel, those things you do
In your eyes i see a fire that burns
To free the you
That's wanting through
Deep inside you know,
The seeds i plant will grow

One day you will see
And dare to come down to me
Yeah c'mon, c'mon now take the chance
That's right
Lets dance
Snake, i am the snake
Tempting, that bite you take
Let me make your mind
Leave yourself behind
Be not afraid
I've got what you need
Hunger i will feed
One day you will see
And dare to come down to me
Yeah c'mon, c'mon now take the chance
That's right
Lets dance

One day you will see
And dare to come down to me
Yeah c'mon, c'mon now take the chance
That's right
Lets dance
Yeah, i feel you too
Feel, those things you do
In your eyes i see a fire that burns
To free the you
That's running through
Deep inside you know
Seeds i plant will grow
One day you will see
And dare to come down to me
Yeah c'mon, c'mon now take the chance
That's right
Let's dance!
