From the recording Dream Sequence
Lyrics
Memories mixed with desire
Led me back to this place
Alexanderplatz summertime
When we still had time to waste
I was lost inside a dream
I can still see your face
And feel the touch of ice and fire
Every time we embraced
I took it all so seriously
I should have known it’s just a game
I used to see ahead with ease
But now the future’s so obscure
Love has felled me to my knees
This sweet taste is not a cure
I drift along these darkened streets
In a symphony of shades
And only silence follows me
And no-one knows my name
I took it all too seriously
But I don’t need you to explain
I’m falling like the autumn leaves
I’m sinking with the setting sun
There’s only shadows left to kiss
C’mon and catch me if you can
I was young and so naïve
Thought I could see in front of me
A love supreme and self-assured
So steeped in certainty
Then I saw your other hand
Heard that voice behind the door
There’s nothing left here to believe
We had it all, you wanted more
I took it all so seriously
I should have known it’s just a game
I’m falling like the autumn leaves
I’m sinking with the setting sun
There’s only shadows left to kiss
C’mon and catch me if you can
Meinem schatz
Alexanderplatz
