They were throwing darts at Putin
In the shadows of the streets
Just like the sheep that were all grazing
On the banks of the river Rhine
And your father told me watch out
When the red light isn’t green
Cos they been boppin’ their heads and they been running the scene since the 1970s
And so I tried to learn the language
Even though you knew my accent sucked
I borrowed your camera in Berlin center
Taking snaps of forgotten streets
And your grandpa said it’s alright
Cos it’s all in the same book
And now I’m back on the road come Tuesday
And the air is tasting sweet
Düsseldorf one night
Hamburg two
Stuttgart’s alright
I’m thinkin’ ‘bout you
Mainz is downtime
Because the autobahns close
I’m drinking just to pass time
I’m thinkin’ ‘bout you
So you’ve heard I’m staying longer
Cos I’ve been havin’ too much fun
My only regret is I won’t get homesick at the cost of losing you
And your mother said to look out
You never know what’s just begun
And say goodbye to the times we spent together blinded by setting sun
Düsseldorf one night
Hamburg two
Stuttgart’s alright
I’m thinkin’ ‘bout you
Mainz is downtime
Because the autobahns close
I’m drinking just to pass time
I’m thinkin’ ‘bout you
Though I feel safe on my own
Feel like I’m missing my home
And so I wander the town
The steel legs hold me down
I hope you saved me a seat
It’s coming up on three weeks
Still your the first that I see
Right when I land on my feet
Düsseldorf one night
Hamburg two
Stuttgart’s alright
Thinking bout you
Mainz is downtime
Cos the autobahns close
Drinking just to pass time
I’m thinkin’ ‘bout you
