Exiles

All the good things I said were lies
I'm back out here, looking on inside
And your soft hands; I miss the feel
Your feathered kisses, for which I'd kill
Cast out of Eden, straight down to hell
Away from you, my golden angel
Far from the Kiez, far from her streets
This lonely night, far from Freiheit

Cos' when I close my eyes or see your face
It takes me back before things changed
Before I was wrong and left
Before my nights were filled with regret

So fly me back to Hamburg
Make it dangerous tonight
So take me back to Hamburg
Cos' this time I'll make it right
So fly me back to Hamburg
Where my heart, I can't conceal
So take me back to Hamburg
So I'll finally feel real

It feels like I've been exiled
I can't see light, I feel colourblind
I'll feel like I'm in shackles, clad
Until I return to the Hansestadt
They said I was home when I came back
But I never really left that place
They laughed and smiled but I felt sad
I'd never fallen so far from grace

Cos' when I close my eyes or see your face
It takes me back before things changed
Before I was wrong and left
Before my nights were filled with regret

So fly me back to Hamburg
We'll make it electric tonight
Trains, planes, delays, a beating heart
Show me the time of my life
Five hundred miles in just one night
As far north as I can go
Rendsburg, Schleswig, Kiel, pass through them all
We'll make the stars all glow
Oh take me back to Hamburg
We'll wake them all tonight
Cos' I remember Flensburg
And I remember that night
