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
