[Intro]
I lost my baby to a foreign war
She was cut down in the gunfire of the western world
[Verse 1]
She was livin' in sin, I was livin' in a lie
She was caught up in the glimmer of a rich man's eye
I couldn't see her from the other side
They said son, "There is no glory in your pride."
[Chorus]
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate;
At the Brandenburg Gate, I'll wait
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate;
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait, I'll wait
[Post-Chorus]
Well, I lost my baby to a foreign war
She was cut down in the gunfire of the western world
[Verse 2]
She was searching for salvation in the things you buy
I was finding all the reason to give up on life
If you love something and give it away
It can't come back unless you're free
[Chorus]
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait
I'll wait, I'll wait, I'll wait
[Verse 3]
Somewhere in the in between
Where the east and the west meet
In the 30 year war where I came clean
That's where you will find me
So I'll wait, I'll wait
[Hook]
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate;
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate;
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait
(So I'll wait)
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate;
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait
(So I'll wait)
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate;
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait
So I'll wait, I'll wait, I'll wait
[Outro]
I lost my baby to a foreign war
