Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark

Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD) are a British New Wave group formed in 1978, whose founding members, Andy McCluskey (vocals, bass guitar) and Paul Humphreys (keyboards, vocals), are originally from the Wirral Peninsula, England. The band rose to fame with their fourth single "Enola Gay", which became a major hit throughout Europe in 1980, and achieved worldwide popularity the following year with their third album Architecture & Morality. Regarded as the band's seminal work, it spawned three international hit singles and propelled them to superstar status in their home country.

Born in Kansas on an ordinary plain
Ran to New York but ran away from fame
Only seventeen when all your dreams came true
But all you wanted was someone to undress you

And all the stars you kissed could never ease the pain
Still the grace remains, the face has changed
And you’re still the same

And it’s a long, long way from where you want to be
Well, it’s a long, long road and you’re too blind to see

Frame of silence of an innocent divine
Is a dangerous creation when you fail the test of time

And all the photographs of ghosts of long ago
Still they hurt you, so won’t let you go
And you still don’t know

And it’s a long, long way from where you want to be
Well, it’s a long, long road and you’re too blind to see

When you look around yourself now
Do you recognize the girl?
The one who broke a thousand hearts
Terrified the world

And all the stars you kissed could never ease the pain
Lift the face has changed, the grace remains
And you’re still the same

And it’s a long, long way from where you want to be
Well, it’s a long, long road and you’re too blind to see

And it’s a long, long way from where you want to be
Well, it’s a long, long road and you’re too blind to see

And it’s a long, long way from where you want to be
Well, it’s a long, long road and you’re too blind to see
And it’s a long, long way
