Lyrics

Newcastle in the rain
For weeks on end
Chain mail at the bus stop
I was aimless in a youth club in Byker
We watched that rocket ship explode over and over
I was due to go to Madrid
I was scared to fly alone
It was the first time
Michael said if the plane should fall from the sky
Wait till just before it hits the clay
Hop off the plane and walk away
1986
Newcastle and Madrid
We were dancing round
To the same music
Two worlds coexisted
So different and yet
We were dancing to the same music
So hot in Madrid
For weeks on end
Retiro Park
Churros in the afternoon
I was hiding from the sun
Watching movies
Behind dark wooden shutters
Madonna with the cigarettes
A nightclub
In a back street
Unmarked doorway
It opened after midnight
A world of light within
Huge fire in the middle
Lots of crowds
So many spirits
Music loud
1986
Newcastle and Madrid
We were dancing round
To the same music
Two worlds coexisted
Where everything we did
Was somehow connected to the music
