Lyrics[]
In the morning I looked down Through the third story window overlooking town Across the water somewhere, you were sleeping over there I couldn't believe it, I couldn't believe it Not if I saw it with my own eyes With my own eyes With my own eyes With my own eyes With my own eyes In the morning I looked down Through the third story window overlooking town And I saw you, and I know you saw me too I couldn't believe it, I couldn't believe it Not if I saw it with my own eyes With my own eyes With my own eyes With my own eyes With my own eyes

- "I was walking around this morning going -- Where was it? That was twenty-three years ago. Not a lot of people know this, but this is a true story." -- 2019-11-14 - De Helling - Utrecht, The Netherlands
