The Blackest Years Lyrics

Song Text:


oh Berlin! your heart has been drawn and quartered again. the east and the west were divided by a wall, that staunched their freedom... well the wall came down in 1989, but its ghost still refuses to leave. these hauntings are so reputative. theres a bit of you in me... oh Berlin! your life is on fire, it burns deep within this heart of mine. you got astronomical, economical, suffereing for a century. and when the ocean swells, that day i'll get on my ship and i'll sail away. all this shit... i'm on this ship. and when you're all alone, don't forget me. cause when i'm all alone, i won't forget you. when you're all alone don't forget me, cause. i'm on the wrong side of the tracks, but i did not know until you turned you're back. i'm living the blackest years of my life, but i did not know until you said goodbye... goodbye. oh Berlin, your witness stands here. on this city shamed kinda day... i'm going home. hey, hey. i'm going home, yeah i'm going home, yeah i'm going home. when you're al
l alone don't forget me. when i'm all alone i won't forget you. i won't ever forget you. i'm on the wrong side of the tracks. i did not know until you turned your back. i'm living the blackest years of my life. i did not know until you said goodbye, goodbye... i'm sorry gertie rouge. we were young girls. in a small world, i'm on your doorstep man, ringing' your bell.
