HEAVEN 17 - Geisha Boys & Temple Girls lyrics
Look aheadon the screen
Slim perfect creatures and they're just 16
Their eyes meetthis is it
The contact so much more than words can transmit
He stands upshe gives in
Their first encountertheir embrace within
A short ridethey arrive
There is no doubt that true love will survive
Chorus:we are the geisha boys
Doing it wrong again
They are the chosen ones
Doing it right
Here come the temple girls
Looking for sanctuary
Naked as advertised
For the first time
Here we are late at night
We are both refugees
There is no easy way
Let it be right
Anything's possible
If you can fake itbut
The wrong place is anywhere
If you're not right
If you turn away from the screen
Another version can be seen
She is blackhe is white
They love each other but they also fight
Back from workshe's not home
Another evening angryall alone
She arrives and he departs
Misunderstandingsthen the breakdown starts
We are the geisha boys
Doing it wrong again
They are the chosen ones
Doing it right
Here come the temple girls
Looking for sanctuary
Naked as advertised
For the first time
Here we are late at night
We are both refugees
There is no easy way
Let it be right
Anything's possible
If you can fake itbut
The wrong place is anywhere
If you're not right
There's not much that you can do
Choose either one of them it could be you
The first time could be the only time
The odds against you and your hopes decline
Do it rightdo it wrong
Console yourself that either won't last long
Geisha boys and temple girls
Make contact or remain in separate worlds
We are the geisha boys
Doing it wrong again
They are the chosen ones
Doing it right
Here come the temple girls
Looking for sanctuary
Naked as advertised
For the first time
Here we are late at night
We are both refugees
There is no easy way
Let it be right
Anything's possible
If you can fake itbut
The wrong place is anywhere
If you're not right
