 Intro C

COn the museum island,

 At the eGnd of the day,

 we had Ctravelled for miles,

 We had Gcome to escape

 AllF the space on the page

 That the Cnewspapers Amgave

 Up to Gpictures and Fpictures of uCs.

CAs we followed the coffin

 Of yGour famous father.

CAdjusting our skirts

 As wGe turned at the altar.

 And Fwithin every word

 That they'dC written, was speAmlt out

 You'd Gtaken your Flast ever bus.C

CSo skimming the surface

 Of all Gyour new money,

 weC skimmed the surface

 Of theG air as we flew.

 we Fwere out of the rain,

 we were Cthinking that Ammaybe

 BGerlin was the Fplace to renew.C

 wellF you know what they say

 About tCerrible hate -

 It will Ambreed something good

 When it's Cthrough.

 At theF end of the day,

 By theC Potsdamer AmPlace

 And theG Brandenburg FGate,

 It was yCou.

hold C for interlude

CYou have hardened completely

 By the Gend of this story,

 You haveC learned to look clear

 Through theG flash of a bulb,

 When you Chear your own name

 From theG back of a crowd,

 You just Cstraighten your gaze,

 No you Gdon't turn around.

 Oh but Fthere was a time

 At the Cend of the day,

 We were Amboth stood in line

 At the Cmuseum display,

 And youF outshone the light

 Under Cwhich you were bathed,

 You could Amoutshine the sky

 With the Clook that you gave,

 Oh so Fdon't be afraid

 To look Cback and wave,

 Now that Amwaving is all that you Cdo.

 At the Fend of the day,

 By the CPotsdamer PAmlace,

 I am Gwaving bFack at yCou.

hold C for interlude

 So Fdon't be afraid

 To lookC back and wave,

 Now that Amwaving is all that you Cdo.

 By the CPotsdamer AmPlace,

 I amG waving Fback at Cyou.
