How come you're not dead yet?


I throught Id sit right down
And write this song for you
I think you never understood my point of view
You came into my life, a smell of summer wine
Poisoned up my blood and left me behind
Mysterious, you were so unpredictable
Charming ways were always so believable
Circumstances made it all come shining through
To tell the truth was not what you intended to
You could not live without me you said
So baby, how come youre not dead yet?
Everything you said to me about being true
Now I realize that words dont mean that much to you
I cant believe you wasted all this time on me
Showered me with promises and poetry
You could not live without me you said
So baby, how come youre not dead yet?
People come and people go
We hurt each other
This I know
But its not that simple
When the hour is late
Baby dont go
I see you walking by but I dont feel a thing
Funny how I thought that we were everyghing
Someone else will now be falling for that smile
Im proud to say that Im no longer worth your while
You could not live without me you said
You could not live without me you said
But baby, how come youre not dead yet?

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Joey Tempest, pseudonimo di Rolf Magnus Joakim Larsson, è un cantautore, compositore e musicista svedese nato nel 1963. È la voce solista e principale autore dei testi e delle musiche degli Europe, una delle band hard rock più popolari degli anni '80. La sua potente voce, inserita da Rolling Stone tra le più potenti e instancabili del panorama Hard and heavy, è un elemento distintivo del sound europeo. Tempest è noto anche per l'utilizzo dell'iconica asta bianca del microfono, diventata un suo marchio di fabbrica durante i tour mondiali degli Europe dal 1984. Tra i brani più rappresentativi di Tempest e degli Europe figurano "The Final Countdown", "Carrie", "Superstitious" e "Cherokee." L'album "The Final Countdown", pubblicato nel 1986, è diventato un successo planetario, vendendo oltre 10 milioni di copie in tutto il mondo.
