Crying In Berlin

This German morning

of winter grey and street lights

The mist is warning

the day to wait it's turn night

The city stumbles

to find the boots in bedrooms

A new wife wonders

why must he go so soon

She's crying in Berlin

Love is flying from Berlin

She's been trying hard to fight her fears

But she knows her tears

will win

A sip of coffee

he sends a smile to greet her

Just for a second

she forgets what lovers have to learn

An empty window

an empty bed

an empty chair

She curses history

then hides her face behind her hair

And she's crying in Berlin

Her world is flying from Berlin

She's been trying hard to force a smile

Will war's denial ever end

She's crying in Berlin

Her world is dying in Berlin

She's been trying hard to fight her fears

But she knows her tears

will win

She´s crying in Berlin

(Instrumental Break)

Crying in Berlin

A darkened doorway

an empty street

an empty heart

There is no sure way

to know if they will stay apart

He dissappears then

a waving hand she won't forget

One thing is certain

she will always see his silhouette

When she´s crying in Berlin

When she´s crying in Berlin

When she's trying hard to fight her fears

She'll fight her tears

and win

She´s crying in Berlin

There´s no denying

It´s a sin

It´s a sin

When the cities burn

love waits its turn

For her and him

Crying in Berlin

Crying in Berlin

She's been trying hard to force a smile

Will war's denial - ever end
