Paul Kelly & The Messengers South Of Germany
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
