WHEN I LEAVE BERLIN 
Live 30 May 2012 version
[Spoken intro:] Hello Berlin! Es ist gut wieder hier zu sein! Alright, this is
uh... something we learned just for you.
When morning comes and I leave Berlin
My mind is turning, my heart is yearning for you and Berlin
In Amsterdam I'll see my lady,
I hope she'll love me
'Cause I'm gonna need her when I leave Berlin
Here today, but the wall is open, gone are the soldiers and their guns
Here today, the gates are open, mothers in the arms of their sons
One, two!
When morning comes and I leave Berlin
I know for certain that I'm a free man when I leave Berlin
In Amsterdam I'll see my lady,
I hope she'll love me
'Cause I'm gonna need her when I leave Berlin
Here today, the wall is open, gone are the soldiers and their guns
Here today, the gates are open, mothers in the arms of their sons
One, two!
[instrumental]
When morning comes and I leave Berlin
My mind is turning, my heart is yearning for you and Berlin
In Amsterdam I'll see my lady,
I hope she'll love me
'Cause I'm gonna need her when I leave Berlin
Come on!
La la la, la la la la la, la la la la la, la la la la la, la la la la la
La la la, la la la la la, la la la la la, la la la la la, la la la la la
When morning comes and I leave Berlin
I know for certain that I'm a free man when I leave Berlin
