Will O' the Wisp - PlatzWave

I see you after many years On an elevated train Rattling above the streets of a city Where men don't wait in vain I think, my, you may have changed But you're such a handsome thing Do you still hang around that old arcade To see what luck will bring? (Will-o-the-wisp) The U1 is such a party train (Will-o-the-wisp) From Uhland to Warschauerstraße (Will-o-the-wisp) Emerging from below past Nollendorfplatz (Will-o-the-wisp) In search of love and laughter (Will-o-the-wisp) (Will-o-the-wisp) (Will-o-the-wisp) (Will-o-the-wisp) You were always such a free spirit A bright-eyed eager chap A will-o-the-wisp And charming with it In your battered leather cap (Will-o-the-wisp) But maybe you've gone respectable With a wife and job and all that Working for the local government And living in a rented flat? (Will-o-the-wisp) The U1 is such a party train (Will-o-the-wisp) From Uhland to Warschauerstraße (Will-o-the-wisp) Emerging from below past Nollendorfplatz (Will-o-the-wisp) In search of love and laughter (Will-o-the-wisp) And you my former will-o-the-wisp Will you recognise me today? Give me a smile for old time's sake Before you run away (Will-o-the-wisp) You were always such a free spirit (Will-o-the-wisp) Aren't you getting bored? (Will-o-the-wisp) A will-o-the-wisp And charming with it (Will-o-the-wisp) Who loved to be adored (Will-o-the-wisp) The U1 is such a party train (Will-o-the-wisp) From Uhland to Warschauerstraße (Will-o-the-wisp) Emerging from below past Nollendorfplatz (Will-o-the-wisp) In search of love and laughter (Will-o-the-wisp) You were always such a free spirit (Will-o-the-wisp) Who came and went so much (Will-o-the-wisp) A will-o-the-wisp And charming with it I'm still longing for your touch (Will-o-the-wisp)

Walking through the castle ruins Lit my just the crescent moon This night was the fairest fair That eyes did behold There the forest round us stood On the outskirts of the wood Was a path to lead me Where I longed to go With every step my heart beat fast As if a doorway to the past And dreams that weren't meant to last Had come alive And in that dark, the dead of night I thought I saw a flickering light Dancing in and out of sight Singing this song It lead me to the ancient rock Magic within mystery In them every secret locked For eternity Then the lights they faded out But the magic still remains Though overgrown is the path I still see the flame
