Lyrics:

Staring at the images on my TV setSwitching channels, haven''t found the right station yetWhat I need is Romance ''83Try to fix the tuning on my radioGetting up, I trip over the remote controlWhat I need is Romance ''83I thought that love and kindness were the things we all needA bit of sensitivityJust living life simple was the thing to believe inI don''t really know, really know anymoreSharing all the human feelings deep insideInstead we hide behind machinesI really wonder if there can ever be a placeFor a little, a little bit of Romance ''83Input, output, microprocessor delayVCI, VCA, modulation for decayDIN sync into controlThe invert mode for stereoSet mode channels two selectorsAudio schematic vectorsYou''re busy when I call you up on the telephoneYou''re playing those Atari games and I''m here aloneWhat I need is Romance ''83Sometimes it makes me think if I can ever be freeLife is no longer a challenge and there''s no mysteryWhat I need is Romance ''83I look back on a time when the world was so youngA beautiful ecologyA flowing river and a bright beautiful sun was enoughNow I don''t really know anymoreSatisfied with only the land and the treesInstead we mass-produce machinesI really wonder if there can ever be a placeFor a little, a little bit of Romance ''83I look back on a time when the world was so youngA beautiful ecologyI really wonder if there can ever be a placeFor a little, a little bit of Romance ''84What I need is Romance ''84
