Berlin

Berlin - Bear's Den

Written by：Andrew Davie/Kevin Jones

The cold wind made your cheeks glow

Shivering away under your coat

Berlin was all covered in snow

All I could offer was a hand to hold

So we made our way to the memorial

You traced your hand along the wall

When they put on the video

I felt your hand tighten in mine

Oh to be lost in an alzheimer's fog

Like the grandfather I lost before I lost

Raise the root but spare the tree

And cut you out of my memory

Leave my world just black and white

Snatch the sun out of the sky

For the only colour in my life

Is the memory of you and I

Oh for every crime that I commit

Is there not a punishment to fix

I'm sorry is an endless corridor

Where behind each every open door

All my doubts my fear my sin

I don't know how to begin

It's a maze within a maze without within

My mind my mind my labyrinth

I can't forget you

I try all the time

I can't forget you

Berlin

With your hand in mine

So happy is the blameless vestal's love

The world forgetting by the world forgot

Is it eternal sunshine or endless dark

Or just a branch left hanging by the bark

Maybe there are victories and defeats

That slip through the cracks of history

We're just two little people in a sea

But know that it meant everything to me

I can't forget you

I try all the time

I can't forget you

Berlin

With your hand in mine

The cold wind made your cheeks glow

Shivering away under your coat

Berlin was all covered in snow

All I could offer was a hand to hold

So we made our way to the memorial

You traced your hand along the wall

When they put on the video

I felt your hand tighten in mine

You were always on my mind

I can't forget you

I try all the time

I can't forget you

Berlin

With your hand in mine
