I lost my baby to a foreign war
She was cut down in the gunfire of the western world
She was livin' in sin, I was livin' in a lie
She was caught up in the glimmer of a rich mans eye
I couldn't see her from the other side
They said son "there is no glory in your pride."
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait, I'll wait
Well, I lost my baby to a foreign war
She was cut down in the gunfire of the western world
She was searching for salvation in the things you buy
I was finding all the reason to give up on life
If you love something and give it away
It can't come back unless you're free.
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait,
I'll wait, I'll wait, I'll wait.
Somewhere in the in between
Where the east and the west meet
In the 30 year war where I came clean
That's where you will find me.
So I'll wait, I'll wait.
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait,
(So I'll wait)
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait
(So I'll wait)
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait,
So I'll wait, I'll wait, I'll wait.
