From the recording Berlin Selections
Lyrics
Rando :
Take a look at everything you have
1989 things aren’t so bad
You are a success
Your little business is expanding
And the house you own is better now than mine
Come on Gustav smile
West Berlin’s phenomenal
Let’s go hit the town
Gustav we’ve got time
Your life and my life
Are better than a dream
One day I know
Elin will be here
And then this life will be
All you’ve ever seen
Smile a little drink some more
Berlin belongs to me
Everything happens for a reason
Though you miss her I’m sure that one day
She will see the life you’ve built
And you’ll be truly happy
But til that day you must smile a little more
Come on G it’s only me
Relax for a while.
G unlock that door
And see that
Your life and my life
Are better than a dream
One day I know
Elin will be here
And then this life will be
All you’ve ever seen
Smile a little drink some more
Berlin belongs to me
Gustav :
One day you will see her and you’ll understand just why
I still go and wait for her every single night
Without you though I’d have either died or given in
How do you put up with me my friend
Rando :
I’ll tell you why
It’s because
Both :
Your life and my life
Are better than a dream
One day I know
Elin will be here
And then this life will be
All you’ve ever seen
Smile a little drink some more
Berlin belongs to me
