Pre-Berlin lyrics

Just a perfect day (for this time of year)

We're making away with right in the rear

An Indian Summer sun, red

Berlin ahead

The sky so pretty through the open roof

And I so witty - your laughter, my proof

All your glee

Through your hand on my knee

The memory's alive tonight

The driver's seat feels quite alright

And I don't know what it is

But I think I could get used to this

The lamppost lights are a canopy of stars

And you on my right you light up the car

The road and me

(The road and me)

Your hand on my knee

(Your hand on my knee)

More on than off it distracts my pedal foot

As we fall in love with Parachutes

Yeah, we do –

Yeah, we do

The memory's alive tonight

The driver's seat feels quite alright

And I don't know what it is

But I think I could get used to this

I am aware and sad somehow

This is here, this is now

How I love to be in this state we're in

Right before we take Berlin

Before we take Berlin

We're moving too fast

Let's take another five

I'd just like it to last

This six hour drive

A few hours more

Snacks and gas galore

The memory's alive tonight

The driver's seat feels quite alright

And I don't know what it is

But I think I could get used to this

I am aware and sad somehow

This is here, this is now

How I love to be in this state we're in

Right before we take Berlin

Don't tell me you don't feel this, too
