Keep moving on now, don’t look back
Open road you’re staring at
Gone away, cut off my past
(I knew you, I knew you)
Made it big, I’m home at last
(No-one remembers you now)
One thing I have still to do
Is make an ancient dream come true
And live my perfect life with you
In a big house in the avenues
And I will drive with you
Down the avenues
And I will drive with you
Down the avenues
The avenues of spring
The avenues of summer
The avenues of home
The avenues of time
Never ends, a single track
Straight ahead and no way back
On and on till out of sight
Midnight sun, no day or night
Nothing show and nothing give
(Hide away, hide away)
Live to work or work to live
(Lie awake, lie awake)
One way in and one way out
(Cry for me, cry for me)
All that’s left to dream about
(Silently, silently)
One thing I have still to do
I’m coming back to be with you
One thing I can still believe
Say you want the same as me
Only thing I need to do
I want to see the avenues
Driven on, unsatisfied
(Harder now, harder now)
Biggest fear, run out of time
(Faster now, faster now)
I listened once, I listened twice
(Come to me, come to me)
Gave it up, and got a life
(Out of here, out of here now)
One thing I must still achieve
Fulfil a lifelong fantasy
To know you want to be with me
By the fountains under almond trees
And I will drive with you
Down the avenues
And I will drive with you
Down the avenues
And I will fly with you
Down the avenues
The avenues of spring
The avenues of summer
The avenues of night
The avenues of morning
The avenues of time
