Berlin
Lou Reed Lyrics
This next-
Oh, thank you
This next song, we're gonna make believe
We're in, uh, Casablanca
And I'm Humphrey Bogart, and this is what I'm gonna sing to Lauren Bacall
And it's called Berlin
By Berlin, by the wall
You were five foot, ten inches tall
It was oh-so nice
Hey honey, it was candlelight and Dubonnet on ice
We were in a small cafe
And you could hear the guitars play
It was oh-so nice
Hey baby, it was, uh, paradise
You're right, woah, and I'm wrong
You know I'm going to miss you now that you're gone
One sweet day
You're right, woah, and I'm wrong
You know I'm going to miss you now that you're gone
One sweet day
One sweet day
We were in a small cafe
You could hear the guitars play
It was oh-so nice
Candlelight and Dubonnet on ice
Don't you forget, hire a vet
He hasn't had that much fun yet
It was oh-so nice
Hey honey, it was paradise
You're right and I'm wrong
You know I'm going to miss you now that you're gone
One sweet day
You're right, woah, and I'm wrong
You know I'm going to miss you now that you're gone
One sweet day
Oh, oh, one sweet day
One sweet day, one sweet day
One sweet day, baby, baby, one sweet day
One sweet day, baby, baby, one sweet day
Baby, baby, one sweet day
