Lyrics

I've been walking up and down my room
Wondering what it's like to be in bloom
I can't imagine what this could feel like
And I don't even know its meaning right

So why does everybody go away
And why can't anyone sit down and stay
And why can't anybody change their minds
And leave the common trains of thought behind

People leave but do not leave a trace
Except their numbers and a cold embrace
With their best wishes for good luck and health
They leave their hometowns and they strive for wealth

So why does everybody go away
And why can't anyone sit down and stay
I hope that nobody is lead astray
When they belive they have to turn and go away
Watch them go away

And if this stormy world will take them
Who will they turn to
And if this stormy world will break them
Who will be waiting now

People really don't know what they do
When their opinions rush all over you
So I keep riding on the Dortmund train
To see the old coal mines in the pouring rain

So why does everybody go away
And why can't anyone sit down and stay
And why can't anybody change their minds
And leave the common trains of thought behind
Oh why does everybody go away
And why can't anyone sit down and stay
I hope that nobody is lead astray
When they belive they have to turn and go away
Watch them go away
