Song title: When I leave Berlin
( Wizz Jones)
When I leave Berlin
When morning comes and I leave Berlin
My mind is turning, my heart is yearning for you and Berlin
In Amsterdam I'll see my lady, I hope she'll love me
'Cause I'm gonna need her when I leave Berlin
Here today, but the wall is open, gone are the soldiers and their guns
Here today, the gates are open, mothers in the arms of their sons
When morning comes and I leave Berlin
I know for certain that I'm a free man when I leave Berlin
In Amsterdam I'll see my lady, I hope she'll love me
'Cause I'm gonna need her when I leave Berlin
Here today, the wall is open, gone are the soldiers and their guns
Here today, the gates are open, mothers in the arms of their sons
When morning comes and I leave Berlin
My mind is turning, my heart is yearning for you and Berlin
In Amsterdam I'll see my lady, I hope she'll love me
'Cause I'm gonna need her when I leave Berlin
When morning comes and I leave Berlin
I know for certain that I'm a free man when I leave Berlin
