Firebird, that's what my dad called you
I get now what he means, he'd known from the start
Kinda ironic, I still froze next to you
I've learned to deal with all of it now
Wish you the best in the world
You've somehow arrived there now too
I hope it lasts
You the fire, me the wind
That can never work
Why'd we make it so hard for ourselves
We chased our pride back then
You the fire, me the wind
You moved in with me 'cause it still felt like a start
Just us up there and our view over Berlin
We outgrew it and robbed ourselves of air
Saw dreams burst, somehow it felt good to let it all go
The apartment and the bus
Your support and your warmth, I don't need it anymore
You the fire, me the wind
That can never work
Why'd we make it so hard for ourselves
We chased our pride back then
You the fire, me the wind
You the fire, me the wind
