My heart was born under the snow somewhere on the Royal Mile
Never thought I would have buried it in the summery nights of the Stockholm streets
Some days we just watch time pass by the emptiness of our lives
And some days we regain a reason to love with a smile in the Berlin Underground
Remember me in the eyes of strangers sitting right in front of you
Can you hear my beat in drums that once were pulse to these facant rooms?
I lay me down but I get no rest, please head north to a safest nest
Will you set me free from memories holding me down like anchors do into the blue?
I don't remember you, I would see a stranger if you sat in front of me
I can't hear your beat amongst the traffic noises and crowded rooms
I lay me down but I get no rest, please head north to a safest nest
I won't set you free, just weigh your anchor and set sail away from here in the open see
Our bodies dance at the speed of tunnel lights
