We met first in cafes and later in ruins My best friend and I are saying goodbye to Hiroshima We walked down the tarmac, again gray on gray My sweetheart and I are saying goodbye in Hiroshima I was an architect, she was an actress I drew the Eiffel Tower upon her dress So we could see the world The flash burnt our shadows right into the wall But my best friend And I will leave them behind in Hiroshima I will keep her secrets, I will change my name My sweetheart and I are saying goodbye to Hiroshima I was an architect, she was an actress I drew the Eiffel Tower upon her dress So we could see the world The flash burnt our shadows right into the wall The songs we sung and then forgot The hearts that would burn and the hearts that would not And the saint in tower, died for her sins not ours All of this snow just made us glow in the dark La la, la la, from the boy in the bubble To a whore in the rubble All of this snow just made us glow in the dark La la, la la, all of this snow Just made us glow in the dark
