I blacked out 'til the morning broke
And I was swallowing glass and inhaling smoke
I lost my mind in a haze of cobbled streets
And broken windows
I managed to get away
For a minute or two, to catch my breath
Just long enough to catch sight of a man
With a broken nose and a bandaged leg
Sleeping silently in a photo booth
On the road where I caught a cab
Back through the heart of the tourist district
And into our rundown, rented pad
And I met a strange girl from Brazil
She made me laugh for an hour or two
And it took me back to the festival
Where I was sure that I was gonna go
But then I bought a beer from a nice bar lady
With the kindest eyes that I'd ever seen
She said "... take a water too honey
It's warm outside
We don't want you dying do we..."
Oh Berlin my love
I've got you underneath my skin
In the early hours of the morning
I can't help but let you in
Oh Berlin my love
I've got you underneath my skin
In the early hours of the morning
I can't help but let you in
I was there talking to you
About some of the shit they'd put you through
And I knew that this could be my chance
To get you closer
So I met you round the back
Away from the others
I was trying to fight off my brother
But I knew, I knew that you didn't have eyes for me...
Oh Berlin my love
I've got you underneath my skin
In the early hours of the morning
I can't help but let you in
Oh Berlin my love
I've got you underneath my skin
In the early hours of the morning
I can't help but let you in (let you in)
I've got a fire and it burns in me
It takes me back to the very day
I was with you there
I've got a fire (I've got a fire)
And I knew back then it was clear to see
That I was running scared
I've got a fire and it burns in me
It takes me back to the very day
I was with you there
When I was with you there
I've got a fire and it burns in me
And I knew back then it was clear to see
I've got a fire and it burns in me
And I was with you there
I've got a fire and it burns in me
It takes me back to the very day
I've got a fire and it burns in me
I've got a fire and it burns in me
It takes me back to the very day
I've got a fire and it burns in me
It takes me back to the very day
I was with you there
