Dear Thomas Schell, It Was a Pleasure Meeting You Songtext
von John Coffey

Go, They′re leaving through the front gate
Out of the cage
They're not gonna be safe from despair
Before I lost it I had, I had it all
And nobody will stop the elephant
Parade, parade in lines out of their cage
Parade, parade in lines out of their cage
In lines out of their cage
In lines out of their cage

Go, I can see them moving eastward
In to the caves
The rest of us will be in safety
In lines out of their cage

Saw the reflection and flares
Black water danced on my hands
He′s gotta go, gonna have to run fast
To find the trail of the animal
He's gotta hide, gonna have to aim fast
But I'm not good shot


Running out of culture
Running out of time
Running out of water
Running out of shots

Go, They′re leaving through the front gate
Out of the cage
They′re not gonna be safe from despair
Before I lost it I had, I had it all
And nobody will stop the elephant

Saw the reflection and flares
Black water danced on my hands
He's gotta go, gonna have to run fast
To find the trail of the animal
He′s gotta hide, gonna have to aim fast
But I'm not good shot

Saw the reflection and flares
Black water danced on my hands
He′s gotta go, gonna have to run fast
To find the trail of the animal
He's gotta hide, gonna have to aim fast
But I′m not good shot


You have to keep on thinking
When you mean to stay alive
But thinking kills me
