South Of Germany Lyrics

South Of Germany lyrics

Paul Kelly (Mushroom Music)
Many lives I could have lived, many trails
taken
It always seems that way at twenty-three
You walk into a room
sometime and then a window opens
My life changed forever in the south of
Germany
A morning train I had to catch, I just lay there sleeping
There
was nothing in that town to hold me
By the time the clock had done another
day of creeping
My life had changed forever in the south of Germany
Oh
I'm sorry that today I have to go away
Seven children I have raised, I love
some more than others
The hardest thing to do is to set them free
So I
learned my lesson hard seven times all over
My life changed forever in the
south of Germany
I never was the kind of girl for acting sentimental
I
never called our meeting destiny
I just call it good luck to meet a man so
gentle
My life changed forever in the south of Germany
Oh I'm so sorry
that today I have to go away
Sometimes when I wake at night I'm dreaming of
another
Then I turn and touch him next to me
And I know where I belong;
still I sometimes wonder
My life changed forever in the south of
Germany
Oh I'm so sorry that today I have to go away
