BERLIN (CITY OF NIGHT)
|
Listen... can't you hear your crying heart?
|
My friend, oh... I can see you're torn apart.
|
I look to you, thinking of you tonight.
|
|
Old ghosts... haunt you and they won't let go.
|
They know... a city can take time to grow.
|
What's done is done, but you are still young,
|
Berlin...
|
|
Tell me, what will be your final role?
|
It seems... either side would sell your soul.
|
Such a high cost, when dreams get lost in
|
|
Berlin...
|
City of night.
|
You sleep between the east and west,
|
along the left and right.
|
Broken,
|
kept from the light.
|
You close your eyes and everything
|
remains in black and white.
|
|
Berlin...
|
When will you fight
|
the line that draws the border?
|
No one crosses
|
in the city of night...
|
|
Strange times, when two halves don't make a whole.
|
You'll find... some old wounds can not be closed.
|
But I look to you, thinking of you tonight...
|
|
Berlin...
|
City of night.
|
You sleep between the east and west,
|
along the left and right.
|
Broken,
|
kept from the light.
|
You close your eyes and everything
|
remains in black and white.
|
|
Berlin...
|
When will you fight
|
the line that draws the border?
|
No one crosses
|
in the city of night...

|
|
Berlin...
|
City of night.
|
You sleep between the east and west,
|
along the left and right.
|
Broken,
|
kept from the light.
|
You close your eyes and everything
|
remains in black and white.
|
|
Berlin...
|
When will you fight
|
the line that draws the border?
|
No one crosses
|
in the city of...
|
|
Berlin...
|
City of night.
|
You sleep between the east and west,
|
along the left and right.
|
Broken,
|
kept from the light.
|
You close your eyes and everything
|
remains in black and white.
|
|
Berlin...
|
When will you fight
|
the line that draws the border?
|
No one crosses
|
in the city of night...
