Lyrics

A summerhouse in Texas
Searching for Siberia
Pioneering underground
We looked a lot like you
Work is done, the table set
Delivered insufficient sound
Oh my, fall in love with me
Oh my, fall in love with me
Cross military lines
Nobody would believe us now
The weather working with us
We looked a lot like you
Now every boy's a refugee
Living for the moment
Oh my, fall in love with me
Oh my, fall in love with me
Through the shrieking wails
Trans European overseas
Silently leaving Amsterdam
We looked a lot like you
Shy away from standard life
Each bitter moment lingers on
Oh my, fall in love with me
Oh my, fall in love with me
Oh my, oh my
Oh my, oh my
Oh my
Oh my, oh my
Oh my, oh my
Oh my, oh my
Oh my
