Babylon

Forever, you'll be remembered as the one who played it cool

Whenever they speak your name they'll say it's you who broke the golden rule

But here's what i really want to know

Did you see the writing on the wall



Chorus:

Babylon

How long can this foolish magic carry on

Babylon

Who will love you when the fantasy of youth is gone



Babylon is it true that your streets were paved with gold

And did you play beneath the stars

Babylon did you know it would all come down to

How you played the dealer's cards



Remember how you loved the laughter

A kingdom on the rise

Crys in the night would turn you to song

And when they call ooh you sang along



Here's what i really want to know

Did you see the writing on the wall



Babylon

How long will this foolish magic carry on

Babylon

Who will love you when the fantasy of youth is gone



Babylon is it true that your streets were paved with gold

And did you play beneath the stars

Babylon did you know it would all come down to

How you played the dealer's cards



It's over you rate two pages in some book

Your legacy

Lost in the night and still you sing your song

For those who will take heed



Here's what i really want to know

Did you see the writing on the wall



Babylon

How long will this foolish magic carry on

Babylon

Who will love you when the fantasy of youth is gone



Babylon is it true that your streets were paved with gold

And did you play beneath the stars

Babylon did you know it would all come down to

How you played the dealer's cards...
