City of pain
City of pain
City of pain
City of pain

I just let you go
to start once again
We had to grow
and forget the pain
Had wonderful days
with crystal clear sun
Now silence is back
The daylight's gone
I jump to the moon
the city of pain
A journey of loss
in every vein
So day after day
tear after tear
blue touches blue
when you're not here

That's how I miss you
That's how I want you since you're out of the door
Baby baby
That's how I need you
It's like a rainbow painted black on the floor

I locked myself
deep in your soul
Only you here
makes me feel whole
Landscapes of hope
eternally
Maybe one day
you will be with me
and cover my need
with your velvet skin
I fall at your feet
whispering sin
Just let your heart
be my safe home
I'm yearning for peace
til we become one

That's how I miss you
That's how I want you since you're out of the door
Baby baby
That's how I need you
It's like a rainbow painted black on the floor

That's how I miss you
City of pain
City of pain
City of pain
City of pain

That's how I miss you
That's how I want you since you're out of the door
That's how I need you
It's like a rainbow painted black on the floor

That's how I miss you
That's how I want you since you're out of the door
That's how I miss you
That's how I want you
