lyrics

Fair skin and dark jeans
You're on my mind, or so it seems
The metal wrist and headdress
The absent cloth across your chest

As your hands rest on mine
I wake up without you
Alone again in my hotel room
How I long to choose
Between this vagabond life
And my german muse

Traveling on, I see you there
With eyes wide shut, my heart goes bare
But time goes by, just clock it
And it will not slow down for you
Lord, I know I want it to
But wishful thinking leads me astray
But to find my German muse
To stay

With you home in Berlin
For one night that we never spent
Hold on, I need you now
Here with me
