Zurich (Ideas)

The tower clock in Zurich shows 9 AM
I’m walking through Altstadt
stained cathedral lights on my back
I spent all day at the Kunsthaus
Lost in time long gone – this insanity in oil
and down the street the trains are running
I’m heading north to Bonn
Train crossing the Rhine
Nothing here is mine – except the wine which is fine
in the town square there’s a statue
Her beauty is torpid and refined
In the oriel windows, sky of blue and white
now I’m lost in this evil festival
Trying to get Back to Zurich by night
Those aren’t stars on the Limmat boy
cause your head is in the clouds
and though you’re all alone
are you lonely?
The Tower clock in Zurich shows 12 AM
Champagne with Russian Nikita
I can call her any name
she is like the statue
Her marble’s in a game
Now I’ve asked too many questions
she has to turn and walk away
Now, those are stars on the Limmat boy
because the clouds have cleared your head
and though you’re all alone
Are you lonely?
The tower above Zurich shows 9 AM
I’m walking through Altstadt
I’ll do it all again
Now, those are stars on the Limmat boy
cause the clouds have cleared your head
and though you’re all alone
Are you lonely?
