about

Berlin was never a not high on my list of places to visit. But once my granddaughter was born there, it became one of my favorite places on Earth.

lyrics

What Am I Doing in Berlin?
walking’ streets i’ve never seen
walking streets i can’t pronounce
what am i doing in Berlin?

Heaven above, what do i see?
in my arms this tender baby
captivate me with her charms
I’m done in, in berlin

this new life, this new love
I leave behind the push and shove
just to start all over again
that’s what I’m doin’ in berlin

nightmares fade to disappear
two by two, they go their way
i’ve come home somehow today
in this rough and tumble place

I said goodbye New York City
San Francisco too
Everything I do in Berlin
Well, it’s all about you

So perfect, so wild
Blessings on this grandchild
Cloudy skies and a deep red door
Luck is yours and what’s more

With every breath I raise a prayer
Love and joy have followed me here
May they follow you every day
Through these streets of Berlin

Ich Bein Ein Berliner
Ich Bein Ein Berliner
Ich Bein Ein Berliner
I’m born again in Berlin
