Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Me in the apartment of the king
We would rather die than do nothing
Though I've never been, it's nice to see hairdressers in berlin
Though I've never been, it's nice to see hairdressers in berlin
Though I've never been, it's nice to see, it's nice to see 'em
Maybe I'm just too ordinary
Talk back to a sunny January
Though I've never been, it's nice to see hairdressers in berlin
Though I've never been, it's nice to see hairdressers in berlin
Though I've never been, it's nice to see, it's nice to see 'em
Strange things are happening in my dreams
(Take my hand and pull me closer)
Nowadays that's not so comforting
(We both know we're getting older)
Time elapses never too be seen
(Take my hand and pull me closer)
Though I've never been, it's nice to see hairdressers in berlin
Though I've never been, it's nice to see hairdressers in berlin
Though I've never been, it's nice to see, it's nice to see 'em
Though I've never been, it's nice to see hairdressers in berlin
Though I've never been, it's nice to see hairdressers
Although I've never been, sometimes it's nice to see 'em
Sometimes it's nice to see 'em
Hairdressers in
In berlin, in berlin
In berlin, in berlin
