Streets of Berlin
Martin Sherman, Philip Glass
Streets of Berlin, I must leave you soon
Oh, will you forget me? Was I ever really here?
Ah, streets of Berlin, I must leave you soon
Oh, will you forget me? Was I ever really here?
Find me a bar on the cobblestone street
Where the boys are pretty
I cannot love for more than one day
But one day is enough in the city
Find me a boy with two
Ocean blue eyes that show no pity
Take out his eyes! He never needs to see
How they eat you alive in the city!
Streets of Berlin, will you miss me?
Streets of Berlin, do you care?
Streets of Berlin, will you cry out if
I vanish into thin air?
Into thin air...
