Go-betweens German Farmhouse Lyrics

German Farmhouse Lyrics

I lived in seclusion for a couple of years



In a german farmhouse just drinking beer



And every morning I'd wake up with a smile from ear to ear









I had one contact to the outside world



A phone in London and a seasick girl.



I knew what was happening but only in my part of the world









I knew what was happening 



I knew that this was my world



I knew what was happening in my part of the world









There was an abandoned castle with empty chairs



There was a rumour Pavarotti would sing there



To raise funds for a music school but then the 



whole thing vanished into thin air









It was a crazy idea 



And it vanished into the air



It was a falling down castle with falling down stairs









I could walk the streets unrecognized 



Nobody stopped me I was never surprised



By anybody's actions or by an ex-lover's eyes









And this felt good 



And this felt so right



To be unloaded as I walked through the night









This felt good 



This felt so right









To be unloaded as I walked through the night, this felt right
