About this song (Last.fm)
This tuneful and well constructed song was never number one in the UK. Although it is often regarded as one of the finest tracks of the 1980's it was prevented from reaching the number one slot by the 'novelty' record "Shaddap You Face" by Joe Dolce Music Theatre. Read more on Last.fm.

Vienna Lyrics
“Vienna” is the third single and the title track from the band’s fourth album of the same name.… Read More
[Verse 1]
We walked in the cold air
Freezing breath on a window pane
Lying and waiting
A man in the dark in a picture frame
So mystic and soulful
A voice reaching out in a piercing cry
It stays with you until
[Chorus]
The feeling has gone, only you and I
It means nothing to me
This means nothing to me
Oh, Vienna
[Verse 2]
The music is weaving
Haunting notes, pizzicato strings
The rhythm is calling
Alone in the night as the daylight brings
A cool empty silence
The warmth of your hand and a cold grey sky
It fades to the distance
[Chorus]
The image has gone, only you and I
It means nothing to me
This means nothing to me
Oh, Vienna
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
This means nothing to me
This means nothing to me
Oh, Vienna
