At The Wall 04:45
Darlin’, winter is coming, at the wall in Berlin. A man is playing the violin, as the rain freezes above him. Darlin’, winter is coming, at my post in Berlin. There are no leaves left on the tree, I hear music from the other side. Dreamers never learn, dreamers never learn. Can’t sleep – miss you. It’s getting dark now. Miss the sun penetrating the sky. Miss the unexpected in life. Write soon, that’s all Darlin’, there are sore spots, at the wall in Berlin. Freezes slowly, as the stars fall down in a basket. Darlin’, there are small cracks, near my post in Berlin. I am cold here Could I sneak to the other side Dreamers never learn, dreamers never learn. Can’t sleep – miss you. Friedrichstrasse is quiet now. There’s an earthquake in my heart, as Berlin disappears in the dark. Write soon, that’s all

A Mexican beach band is slowly killing a song It’s an Italien wedding and everything seems wrong I’m waiting for Emily, hope she won’t be long so for now I’ll order another beer Emily rushes in as the bride takes her groom While she hugs me, I dream in her perfume And how I met her in the dressing room she wrote something on the wall A great deal of hours spent gazing at my shoes Locked in a tower with nothing left to loose Being a line in a modern mans blues /to be alive in a modern mans blues Emily talks about music as I try to keep my cool About Bob and George and Bowie and a spirit, that couldn’t stop drolling and all of her plans, now she is leaving school I peer at her over my third beer I wanna kiss her, but haven’t got the nerve So I just look at her, trying to observe and find a soft spot in the beautiful curves then I start drinking her wine A great deal of hours spent gazing at my shoes Locked in a tower with nothing left to loose Being a line in a modern mans blues /to be alive in a modern mans blues A Mexican beach band is still murdering a song It was an Italian weeding but now there all gone Emily makes me smile, it’s just before dawn She makes me gaze at my shoes

Sleepers, you know what to do Stay in your beds ‘till we are through Rise up to pry for the dawn Change what you might and go on Change what you might and go on Sleepers you know what went wrong longing was lost and it’s gone at noon we’ll hear what they say they’ll probably lie anyway Sleep while the dawn drifts away Sleepers, your dreams must do I’ll go the same way as you

John the Baptist nearly drowned Jesus Christ When he showed him his river of faith. I saw them when I was there last night, only I was there to bath. Standing there, she looked like a little deer Her big eyes only saw the moon In her face there where traces of tears It was a beautiful night in June I spoke to Mary of Magdala Near the church on the hill. She looked at me, just looked She said; she left, you can do what you will I told her about the evening, the river and the girl about her eyes that only saw the moon in her face and the traces of tears Now, it is the end of June . Reality is full of all kinds of noises, not just echoes or smalltalk and I believe in you, I believe in you …!!!…
