Crossroads
Satin Circus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Here I'm standing
All alone in the dark of the night
Wishing I could find you...
oh I've tried and tried to
I can't get you out of my mind
Remember how you danced with me...
How you danced with me?
See those nights aren't forever gone
Come on and let me hold you
And I'll try and try to
Make it last for good this time
Cause we were young young
Having fun
Now we are the ones
Standing at the crossroads
Now those days are gone
Choices must be done
Standing at the crossroads
But tonight we can be...
Young young yo-yo-yo young
Young young yo-yo-yo young
Young young yo-yo-yo young
As we're standing in the crossroads
I guess we're never coming back-back-ba-ba-ba-back
You got me falling
And I can call in just to hear your voice
Blinded by your love
We're just stranded in lights
Worth every tear... every fight
Cause we were young young
Having fun
Now we are the ones
Standing at the crossroads
Now those days are gone
Choices must be done
Standing at the crossroads
But tonight we can be...
Young young yo-yo-yo young
Young young yo-yo-yo young
Young young yo-yo-yo young
As we're standing in the crossroads
I guess we're never coming back
Cause every waking hour
I think about you
And we're not getting younger
Those days aren't gone
I'm gonna fight forever
As long as it takes
To get us back together
Young young having fun
Standing at the crossroads
Now those days are gone
Standing at the crossroads
But tonight we can be...
Young young yo-yo-yo young
Young young yo-yo-yo young




Young young yo-yo-yo young
As we're standing at the crossroads

Do you also remember how we danced together?

@chocmint777 I live in Finland and i have done my matriculation exam on english. 

I don't get how an adult can be so close minded? It's punk music. The instrumental and melody are good, although i have to agree that this is not their best song. Still it ain't bad  even on normal judging standard. 

And to expect same level of music from a band with learning disabilities is not promoting equality.

@Serenity S. 

Don't imply Euro vision has ever been about just the song:D It has always been about politics, culture and performance. Conchita Wurst would not have won if he wasn't a positive influence to the minority he was presenting. Him winning was solely political. And it worked; Russia got pissed off and so did everyone else who didn't accept his view of life.
