Miss Sarajevo Lyrics

Is there a time for keeping your distance
A time to turn your eyes away
Is there a time for keeping your head down
For getting on with your day


Is there a time for kohl and lipstick
A time for cutting hair
Is there a time for high street shopping
To find the right dress to wear


Here she comes
Heads turn around
Here she comes
To take her crown


Is there a time to run for cover
A time for kiss and tell
Is there a time for different colours
Different names you find it hard to spell


Is there a time for first communion
A time for East 17
Is there a time to turn to Mecca
Is there time to be a beauty queen


Here she comes
Beauty plays the clown
Here she comes
Surreal in her crown

 
Dici che il fiume
Trova la via al mare
E come il fiume
Giungerai a me
Oltre i confini
E le terre assetate
Dici che come fiume
Come fiume...
L'amore giunger
L'amore...
E non so più pregare
E nell'amore non so più sperare
E quell'amore non so più aspettare

(You say that the river
Finds the way to the sea
And like the river
You shall come to me
Beyond the borders
And the thirsty lands
You say that as a river
Like a river...
Love shall come
Love...
And I'm not able to pray anymore
And I cannot hope in love anymore
And I cannot wait for that love anymore)

 
Is there a time for tying ribbons
A time for Christmas trees
Is there a time for laying tables
And the night is set to freeze
