Blacked out 'til the morning broke,
And I was swallowing glass and inhaling smoke,
I lost my mind in a haze
Of cobbled streets and broken windows.
I managed to get away, for a minute or two,
To catch my breath, just long enough
To catch sight of a man with a broken nose
And a bandaged leg,
S-sleeping silently in a photo booth
On the road I caught a cab,
Back through the heart of the tourist district
Into our rundown, rented pad.
I met a strange girl from Brazil,
She made me laugh for an hour or two
And took me back to the festival
And I was sure that I was gonna go
But then I bought a beer from a nice bar lady
With the kindest eyes that I'd ever seen,
She said "...take a water too honey, it's warm outside,
We don't want you dying do we..."
Oh Berlin my love, I've got you underneath my skin.
In the early hours of the morning, I can't help but let you in.
Oh Berlin my love, I've got you underneath my skin.
In the early hours of the morning, I can't help but let you in.
I was there talking to you
About some of the shit they'd put you through,
And I knew that this could be my chance to get you closer.
So I met you round the back, away from the others,
I was trying to fight off my brother
But I knew, I knew that you didn't have eyes for me...
Oh Berlin my love, I've got you underneath my skin.
In the early hours of the morning, I can't help but let you in.
Oh Berlin my love, I've got you underneath my skin.
In the early hours of the morning, I can't help but let you in.
(Let you in)
I've got a fire and it burns in me
It takes me back to the very day I was with you there.
I've got a fire
And I knew back then it was clear to see that I was running scared
I've got a fire and it burns in me
Takes me back to the very day I was with you there.
(When I was with you there)
I've got a fire and it burns in me
And I knew back then it was clear to see
I've got a fire and it burns in me, it burns in me
...
I've got a fire and it burns in me
It takes me back to the very day
I've got a fire and it burns in me
I've got a fire and it burns in me
Takes me back to the very day
I've got a fire and it burns in me
Takes me back to the feeling I was with you there.
