The lyrics of the songs from four decades are for the most part written by Marian Gold herself. A central theme for Alphaville and Marian Gold has always been dreaming: ‘We get around quite a lot, we’ve played almost everywhere, in and out of our heads. All this contributes to our music, to the idea of what Alphaville could be. It’s like a never-ending dream. Those who listen to our music hear fragments of that dream.’ The all-new and titularsong readslike a farewell letter. In fact, except for the chorus, all the lines are taken from sonnets by Shakespeare.
