[Verse 1]
I was walking down a wrong way street
I was feeling like a refugee
Berlin
Got shot by an old man's eyes
Got pinned like a butterfly
Berlin
[Chorus]
This should have been a happy love song
This should have been a sappy song for you
This should have been a happy love song
[Verse 2]
Saw a woman on a bridge last night
She was standing on the edge of life
Berlin (Berlin)
I was deafened by the anxious crowd
They were yelling jump right
Now (Now)
[Chorus]
This should have been a happy love song
This should have been a sappy song for you
This should have been a happy love song
[Verse 3]
There's a lady laying in my bed
Angel flying overhead
Berlin (Berlin)
There's a needle laying on the floor
And a letter saying
Please no more
[Chorus]
This should have been a happy love song
This should have been a sappy song for you
This should have been a happy love song
