lyrics

Dreaming her eyes in Dantzig station
I'm reading a book by Thomas Mann
Waiting for a train to return to Berlin
And the night is arrived already

A girl at the station
A girl at the station

A black and white picture
Men in grey uniform
All against a wall
Waiting in silence for an order
The time is passing under my feet
The time is passing over my head

A girl at the station
A girl at the station

Every noise is like a presage
And every kiss is fruit of my fantasy
The time is passing under my feet
The time is passing over my head

A girl at the station
A girl at the station
