Bear's Den - Berlin Lyrics

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
As 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
All'd be lost
And then at times I'd fall
Like the grandfather I lost before I lost
Raise the roof and spare the trees
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
There's another punishment to fit
"I'm sorry" is an endless corridor
But behind each every open door
All my doubts, my fears my sins
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 vestals love
The war 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 the 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
As 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 are 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

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
As 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
All'd be lost
And then at times I'd fall
Like the grandfather I lost before I lost
Raise the roof and spare the trees
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
There's another punishment to fit
"I'm sorry" is an endless corridor
But behind each every open door
All my doubts, my fears my sins
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 vestals love
The war 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 the 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
As 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 are 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
