Berlin
Berlin
It stinks and it's loud and it's hectic
And so crazy electric
That's what I don't like about the city
I hear fat bass from a car
It hits me hard in the face
And I can tell today is not my day
I'm stuck way back on Linden*
Want to vanish, if I only could
Feel my blood pressure rising,
I'm stressed out in this traffic jam
Then I suddenly see this woman
And I can hardly believe it
'Cause her eyes showed me:
There's sun, sun, sun – sun in Berlin!
I gaze briefly at her face
And I think she doesn't notice me
She's looking upwards
I park in the No Parking zone
I'm swimming through the crowd
I can't reach her
Being shoved around
And of course the light just went red
I see a pale traffic warden
But I'm not interested in her at all
She thinks she rules the traffic here
I'm only looking for that one woman
But suddenly the sky turns grey
And the streets around me are wet
And there's rain, rain, rain – rain in Berlin.
So now something happens that no one would've guessed
(In Schönefeld)
I actually drive to the capital every day
(To Lichtenberg)
I stand among a thousand people, all alone
(In Tempelhof)
And I hope so much that I will finally find my…
Love, love, love – love in Berlin.

* I used "Linden" here as a shorthand for "Unter den Linden," the main street of Berlin (which I assume the songwriter is referencing here).
