tiergarten

rufus wainwright

won't you walk me through the tiergarten?

won't you walk me through it all

darling?

doesn't matter if it is raining

won't you walk me through it all?

even if the sun

it is blazing

even if the snow

it is raging

all the elements

we must conquer

to get to the other side of town

i have suffered shipwreck against your dark brown eyes

i have run aground against your broken down smiles

believe me when i tell you i have no place to go

but to go where the wild flowers grow and the stone gardens bloom. won't you walk me through the tiergarten?

won't you walk me through it all

darling?

doesn't matter if it is raining

we'll get to the other side of town.
