Baby
We're not looking for eternity
So smile now
While you're looking for this serenity
He dosses out here in doorways
Caught between wars
Tells us something is coming
Won't reveal more
She shuffles up close beside him
And kisses his ear
I guess all our time is running
Running on fear
And it goes around
Round, around again
Like a magic circle
Till it comes to the end
Baby
We're not looking for eternity
So smile now
While you're looking for serenity
Out from the marble palaces
Kings and queens Will rejoice
Their importance of being
Their importance of choice
And as they swung Mussolini
Like a chime in the breeze
The pope blessed his children
