European (I Wish I Was)

(Album: The Story Of A Young Heart - 1984)

I wish I was
A European
I wish I had
European style

Designer cars
And that way of living
With burning eyes
I could watch you smile

I wish I was
An Afghan
Standing on a hill
Spear and shield in hand

I wish I had
Black zulu pride
And maybe then
I wouldn't need to hide

I wish I was
A better man
But as it is
This is how I stand

So don't you leave me alone
Fighting for the cause
Do I stand alone
When that cause is yours

I wish I was
A European
I wish I had
European style

I wish I was
A European
A European
A European

I wish I was
A European
A European
A European
A European

I wish I
