central park looks like a graveyard
it never rained like that before
i took the ferry to new jersey
never coming back no more
in my hand i hold a ticket
statue points up to the clouds
now i'm leaving new york city
i can hear the seagulls cries

whenever i saw you, it felt like the first time
whenever i kissed you, just like the furst time
whenever i hold you it was never the same
and i thought that the last time
would never come
today

autumn's sun burns down on berlin
a turkish bride just passes by
someone plans a revolution
little kites dance in the sky
i will always hear your heartbeat
i will always think of you
laughter's ringing from the playgrounds
as i watch the children play
ain't no doubt

whenever i saw you, it felt like the first time
whenever i kissed you, just like the furst time
whenever i hold you it was never the same
and i thought that the last time
would never come
today
here comes the rain
right now!
