Barré

Time creeps by on the windowsill
I look out from my old building
And think
Of
Nothing
You say you want to be my Padawan
So come
I'll take you with me to-day

Laundry dries in the inner courtyard
On the racing bike through the neighborhood at speed
Life is good and not meaningless
A crate of Sterni at Netto
Through the night with the S-Bahn
And today becomes yesterday
Yes, maybe you'll be right
But I can't change it anymore


And through the wall
You can still hear noise
Until eight in the morning
We dance closely on the parquet floor
Right into the night

And time creeps by on the windowsill
I look out from my old building
And think
Of
Nothing
You say you want to be my Padawan
So come
I'll take you with me to-day


I'm a little late
And I close the door behind me
The asphalt is warm
I feel good when I'm here
And then the six of us go
To the late-night shop on the corner
Yeah
Hey, it's a bit like back then
Kicking the ball across the parking lot
We're having fun and I mean, I'm allowed to
The neighbor is yelling, like it's a crime
Because he has no clue
And if you feel what I mean, come by
I have time and I'm staying here

Time creeps by on the windowsill
I look out from my old building
And think
Of
Nothing
You say you want to be my Padawan
So come
I'll take you with me to-day

Time creeps by on the windowsill
I look out from my old building
And think
Of
Nothing
You say you want to be my Padawan
So come
I'll take you with me to-day
