Emotional Ghetto Songtext
von Thomas Helmig

Was it something that I said?
Was it something that I did?
Like the space between us
Feel like the universe

It′s like you don't even see me
And when you make love to me
I swear it feels like an engine in reverse

(My emotional ghetto) why′d you want to make feel lonely?
Why'd you want to make me feel blue?
(Can't you see) can′t you see I′m loving you only?
Tell me what you want me to do

(My emotional ghetto) why'd you want to make feel lonely?
Why′d you want to make me feel blue?
Can't you see I′m loving you only?
Tell me what you want me to do

Was it something that I did?
Was it something that I said?
Make the minutes we spend together feel like years


All the lies that you can't tell
All the secrets you can′t sell
All the sweet stuff that you don't whisper in my ear

(My emotional ghetto) why'd you want to make feel lonely?
Why′d you want to make me feel blue?
(Can′t you see) can't you see I′m loving you only?
Tell me what you want me to do

(My emotional ghetto) why'd you want to make feel lonely?
Why′d you want to make me feel blue?
Can't you see I′m loving you only?
Tell me what you want me to do

And it feels like I'm a long way from home
And it feels like I'm a long way from home

Why′d you want to make feel lonely?
Why′d you want to make me feel blue?
Can't you see I′m loving you only?
Tell me what you want me to do

Why'd you want to make feel lonely?
Why′d you want to make me feel blue?
Can't you see I′m loving you only?
Tell me what you want me to do


(My emotional ghetto) why'd you want to make feel lonely?
Why'd you want to make me feel blue?
(Can′t you see) can′t you see I'm loving you only?
Tell me what you want me to do

(My emotional ghetto) why′d you want to make feel lonely?
Why'd you want to make me feel blue?
Can′t you see I'm loving you only?
Tell me what you want me to do

Why′d you want to make feel lonely?
Why'd you want to make me feel blue?
Can't you see I′m loving you only?
Tell me what you want me to do
