The Dankerneers - The Rearview Mirror

{Verse}
An entire summer's happenings
Distilled for us into five days
When we are in Schloss Dankern
Memories form in tidal waves
We would've never thought that
Back when we were just arriving
When it's time for us to go back
Our bodies would be writhing

{Chorus}
We're looking back with memories
Scared here we will never be again
A place of bonding might become
A place of severing of friеnds
Every year might have been our last
Thе tears are forming in our eyes
Just like a mannequin of glass
The fear, it keeps us paralyzed

{Verse}
As the castle slowly fades from
The bottom of the rearview mirror
I just put my shades on
Blurry vision soon gets clearer
Could be going anywhere
From U.S.A. to East Japan
But in my mind I'll always ride
The Dankern-Pferdeschienenbahn

{Chorus}
We're looking back with memories
Scared here we will never be again
A place of bonding might become
A place of severing of friends
Every year might have been our last
The tears are forming in our eyes
Just like a mannequin of glass
The fear, it keeps us paralyzed

{Bridge}
We might grow up
Forget about it
Might even have families
But friends show up
We reminisce
And in our heads we'll never leave

{Chorus}
We're looking back with memories
Here we'll always meet our friends
A place of bonding has become
A place we can be young again
Every year might have been our last
To live life once more we yearn
That is why, to Dankern I
Will eternally return
