I was singing for the first time
The audience didn't know me
What a year that year was
Rock 'n' roll had just spread its wings
I was singing "Belle, belle, belle"
And the audience loved it
The Beatles were already four boys
My song said "walk straight ahead"
What joy to be the idol of the young
For fans who were smashing the seats
The more I think about it, the less I forget
I discovered my first my last love
The only, the great, the unique
And forever the audience
In the sky a melody drifted
A bird they called Sputnik
What a year that year was
We said goodbye to Marilyn
West Side was breaking every record
Guitars were firing at violins
We thought a revolution
It was yesterday, but today nothing's changed
Starting again tonight
