Song written in muenster 1983
According to a note on the very first script the text origins from 1978, berlin. must have been a quite interesting time. unfortunately I just cant remember it.
Marian gold, 1998
Frhmorgens halbgetrumte nacht fliegt wie ein echo durch den kopf
Du schaust den spiegel unverwandt an, der mit fingern dich befhlt
Dein photo aneinanderreiht
Millionenfach zu andrer zeit
Millonennfach, zu andrer zeit
Das bin dann ich, nicht etwa du
Du schaust mir nur von weitem zu
Du schreist, ich sehs an deinem blick
Ich aber lache nur zurck
Dagegen kalt auf bahnsteig sechs, berlin von hamm ber hannover
Kommandos gellen an den zgen, die wagen rucken in die nacht
Passiert die endlos lange front von fenstern dj? vu die augen
Und bild um bild verschmelzen sie zum allerletzten passagier
Das bin dann ich, nicht etwa du
Du schaust mir nur von weitem zu
Du schreist, ich sehs an deinem blick
Ich aber lache nur zurck
Zuletzt woanders, 12. stockwerk, appartement 100, appartement 100
Und jemand schleicht sich durch den raum ...
Drei schnelle schritte zum balkon, die tr knallt hinter dir ins schloss
Und krachen dreissig tren und hallen wider wie wilde tiere
Das sind dann wir, nur ich und du, wir schauen uns Im fallen zu
Der schrei bist du, ich dein gesicht
Du nur ein schatten, ich das licht ...
Music by alphaville
Lyrics by gold
Early morning half dreamed night
Flying like an echo through the head
You are looking in the mirror, who touches
You with fingers
Your pictures put together
A million times to different times
This is me, and not you
You are looking at a distance
You are screaming I can see
But I only laugh back at you.
Its cold on the railroad platform 6 berlin to hamm over hannover
Orders are screaming on the train, the cars going through the night
Causing the endless front of windows to be a deja vu from the eyes
Picture after picture melding to the very last passenger.
This is me......
Now to the 12th floor. apartment 100, apartment 100
Somebody is going through the room....
3 fast steps to the balcony, the door closes
And now I hear 3 door slamming and it sounds
Like 30 wild animals racing through the halls
Now we are there you and i
The scream is you and I am your face
You are like a shadow and I am the light.....
