There comes a time for each of us To make one last desperate stab at life To search for truth among the broken dreams But it's never found or so it seems to me Can we break free?
Oh body electric of thee I sing In my life I've done many things Out of anger and frustration Errors made in desperation My past follows me but I'll soon be free
Is it too late to reach the tannhäuser gate? Is there still time to cross the siegfried line?
Oh there's no point in living When life's too short to live And I'll be gone before you realize Just how much I really have to live
Oh I've tried, lord knows I've tried And I found that there was nothing to find
Tell me is it too late to reach the tannhäuser gate? Tell me is there still time to cross the siegfried line?
Just one more time
When people build walls instead of bridges Their fortresses soon become their prisons Each day I hope and pray All these memories will be washed away All this sadness All this pain Lost in time like tears in rain
Like tears in rain...
Tell me it's not too late to reach the tannhäuser gate Tell me that there's still time to cross the siegfried line Tell me that you'll wait for me at tannhäuser gate Tell me that you'll be mine at the siegfried line Tell me there's still time enough for us to try Just one more time Tell me it's not too late to reach the tannhäuser gate Tell me it's not too late to reach the tannhäuser gate Tell me there's still time enough for us to try Just one more time Tell me that you'll be mine Just one more time
