In Germany Before The War
In Germany Before The War
There was a man who owned a store
In nineteen hundred thirty-four
In Dusseldorf
And every night at fine-o-nine
He`d cross the park down to the Rhine
And he`d sit there by the shore
I`m looking at the river
But I`m thinking of the sea
Thinking of the sea
Thinking of the sea
I`m looking at the river
But I`m thinking of the sea
A little girl has lost her way
With hair of gold and eyes of gray
Reflected in his glasses
As he watches her
A little girl has lost her way
With hair of gold and eyes of gray
I`m looking at the river
But I`m thinking of the sea
Thinking of the sea
Thinking of the sea
We lie beneath the autumn sky
My little golden girl and I
And she lies very still
In Germany Before The War
In Germany Before The War

But I`m thinking of the sea

And she lies very still
