Flame
● Alphaville Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been searching for so long
Now I'm chasing the shadows away
I've been trying, yes I tried to find my way
No more crying in the make or break decade
There were times when I was down
There were times I felt so low
My whole life just seemed to be
A senseless quest for energy
But I carry your flame
All through my life, I'm a believer
Peace deep in our hearts, all things must pass
But we'll be together again

I've been walking
I've been walking in the rain
When the angel of my intuition whispered hello
Well I was quite surprised to face
That kind of incarnation
Love comes always unexpected
Love strikes blind and undirected
Love is the answer
Love is all we need my friend
How you came and changed the weather
How I wanna live forever
I carry your flame
All through my life, I'm a believer




Peace deep in our hearts, all things must pass
But we'll be together

Haddaway's tune "What is love" has always given me thrills ever since it was first broadcast on radio nearly some thirty years ago. The dance compilation to the magic rythm and sound of Haddaway 's best known melody is a living testimony of the permanence in people's minds and memories of this great piece of music. What extraordinary talent and grace to be found in these magnificent dancers who perform a welcome and needed for long invitation to joy youth and boundless freedom altogether.!! This show is by all means a revitalizing medecine for body and soul .Yet the most dazzling performer to definitely steal the show is the great Sven Otten in black suit felt hat and tie. This boy appears to be so incredibly alert and nimble when dancing on top of a graffiti scribbled roof one could almost believe his body to be boneless and made out of rubber!!! Sven Otten let me thank you for this enjoyable moment of exquisite art !!!! You are the Lord of shuffle dance !!!! Martin Querre
