Bolder than the pirates who used to rule the sea
|
Braver than the natives, who never heard of tea.
|
They never knew what hit them, said the Spaniards later on.
|
Empire. It was here and now it's gone.
|
Even the biggest elephant never forgets
|
And the sun never sweats. No, the sun never sweats.
|
You were younger than a virgin, older than the sea.
|
You were angel, you were devil, and I was all of me.
|
You knew you met your master, when I made you stay at home.
|
Woman. Whatever made you roam.
|
Even the hardest concrete never quite sets.
|
And the sun never sweats. No, the sun never sweats.
|
Losing is for losers, winners play to win.
|
Always love the sinner, you may even like the sin.
|
The door that used to open has closed without a crack.
|
Woman, you're like the Empire and I still want you back.
|
We may be gods or just big marionettes.
|
But the sun never sweats.
|
Life is a gamble and we're all placing our bets.
|
And the sun never sweats.
|
No the sun never sweats.
