The second best rock song about Vienna!!

lyrics

Stephansplatz

Girls scurry through Stefanplatz
Fending off the rain with newspaper hats
Pondering the scene irrationally
Drenched in your own naivety
Counting infinite umbrellas
Chasing fleeing Cinderellas
At a pretend picnic in the very real rain

Girls scurry through Stefanplatz
Fending off the rain with newspaper hats
Pondering the scene rationally
Drenched in my own lucidity
Do infinite umbrellas
Chasing fleeting Cinderellas
Mean no more pretend picnics in the very real rain?

She knows not what
She knows not what
She knows not what she says

Tiptoe between the raindrops
Place your bets as they race down the glass
Walk between the cracks in the pavement
Destiny will have the last laugh

Now you can’t tiptoe between the raindrops
All bets are off as they race down the glass
You can’t walk between the cracks in the pavement
Because destiny has had the last laugh

Tiptoe between each drop of rain
Tiptoe through your words again
Takes a fumbling apology
To confront the fakest smile
Makes a crumbling analogy
Complete abject denial
She knows not what
She knows not what
She knows not what she says

Tiptoeing between the raindrops
Pretend picnics in the rain
