Hey, you on your telephone
Look at me, I'm dreaming of Cologne
When suddenly we could see that it was Spring
And the bells from the cathedral they were ringing
When all the puzzle pieces fell into place
And the early morning sunlight shone upon your face
And the revelers from the night before
Were puking into the bins outside the bookstore
And the Rhine reminded me of a song
I couldn't place the name but I could sing along
It's easy
The river is wide
The road so long
I'm not in it for the ride
I'm in it for the long run
Today I'll put the coffee on and wait
For the sun to wake
And yes I know it's been a shitty year
And that the winters are so brutal over here
And in the purple sky the clouds look like pearls
And the frost on the windowpanes diamonds
Now in Queensland it is 39 degrees
I guess we miss it the most when we are freezing
There are many places we have called our home
We keep a little piece of each one in our soul
It's easy
The river is wide
The road so long
I'm not in it for the ride
I'm in it for the long run
